Wood barking machine is a device used to remove the cortex from the wood surface and make the wood surface smoother and neater. Wood barking machine plays an important role in the wood processing industry. However, the humidity of wood will have a certain impact on wood barking machine’s work.

First of all, too wet wood will reduce the efficiency of wood barking machine. Because the wood will become softer after absorbing water, it will increase the strength needed for wood barking machine to remove the surface cortex of wood. Therefore, wood barking machine needs to spend more energy and time when dealing with wood with high humidity, which leads to the reduction of production efficiency.
Secondly, the wood with high humidity is easy to cause the failure of wood barking machine. In wood barking machine, it is necessary to constantly rotate the blades or grinding tools to remove the cortex on the wood surface. However, the wood with high humidity will produce more fibers and resins on the wood surface, which will adhere to the blades or grinding tools in wood barking machine, thus increasing the risk of equipment wear and failure.
In addition, the wood with high humidity will also affect the quality of the wood surface treated in wood barking machine. Because the humidity is too high, there will be more fibers and resins on the wood surface, which will make the wood surface not smooth and tidy, thus affecting the quality of subsequent wood processing and utilization.
Therefore, in order to ensure that wood barking machine can work normally and efficiently, manufacturers and users need to pay attention to controlling the humidity of wood. In practice, we can reduce the humidity of wood by drying the logs or controlling the humidity of the processing environment in the production process, so as to reduce the influence of humidity on wood barking machine’s work and ensure the normal operation of equipment and the quality of processing effect.
