Most cut them from a larger board using a bandsaw or table saw.  They will then be finished on a drum sander to the right spec.  If making tapers, they need to ride a tapered sled through the drum sander.

this tapered sled ?how is the lam fixed to it?

My sleds are faced with sandpaper and have a stop block on the end.

Yep, sandpaper will keep em on the sled.
