Abstract (en)

Truss table assembly for assembling a truss without manual flipping of the truss. In one embodiment, the truss table assembly includes two truss tables and two flipper arms. Each truss table (24a,24b) has a worksurface that is configured to support the truss members (70,88) as nailing plates are engaged to the truss members. The flipper arms (26a,26b) are configured to flip the truss from a truss member first surface in contact with the worksurfaces to a second surface in contact with the worksurfaces so that nailing plates may be positioned over the truss member second surface and engaged to the truss members. <IMAGE>
