The illustration demonstrates the sequence of chipboard production from raw material and its application to make furniture.
Overall, the diagram comprises two main stages, which start with the collecting of raw wood in the forest and treating them in multiple steps to create chipboard and finally the application of chipboard to make furniture.
In the first main stage, raw woods are collected by cutting in the forest. After that, these tree trunks will be trimmed to remove all of its leaves and rough skin and then it is shaped into square prisms. When logs are prepared, they are put into a crusher in order to make wood chips, then wood chips are delivered to the drying machine where it will be dried by hot steam in 24 hours. To end this stage, dried wood chips will be stored in room temperature condition for about 1 to 4 weeks.
Turning to the second stage, after being stored for a few weeks, the wood chips are conveyed to a mixing tank, where it is stirred with glue and wax to increase its attachment before pouring the mixture to a mould in order to create a wanted rectangular shape. After this, the board will be pressed into thick planks, which will finally be an essential material to make furniture such as desk, table, seat, etc.
