Calculation of raw material requirements for plywood

plywood raw materials

(1) Timber requirements

Loss (process loss and technical organization loss) coefficient:

The loss of each process can be calculated according to the sequence of the process flow:

1. Surface processing of plywood:

Process loss coefficient I1=δ/SΦ×100%;

In the formula: I1——Process loss coefficient of plywood surface processing

δ——Surface machining allowance (mm), single-sided sanding δ=0.1~0.15 (mm)

Single-sided scratching δ=0.15~0.20 (mm)

SΦ——The thickness of the hot-pressed plywood (mm)

Then I1=0.15/3×100%=5%

The loss of technical organization is included in the trimming process and considered together.

2. Trimming:

Process loss coefficient I2 = (F end - F already) / F end × 100%;

In the formula: I2 ——the process loss coefficient when the plywood is trimmed;

The end of F - the area of the plywood without trimming (m²)

F has - finished plywood width after trimming (m²)

The trimming allowance is usually taken as 60mm

Then I2=(1.890*0.975-1.830*0.915)/ 1.890*0.975×100%=9.13%

Take I2=10%

Technical organization loss △1,2=3%.

3. Hot pressing:

Process loss coefficient I3=(∑S - SΦ)/∑S×100%;

In the formula: I3——compression loss coefficient of plywood during hot pressing;

∑S——Plywood slab thickness (mm)

SΦ——The thickness of the extruded plywood (mm), measured after leaving the press for 24 hours.

I3=15%

Technical organization loss △3=0.5%

4. Dry veneer processing (finishing, grading, repairing):

The process loss factor I4=10%, and the technical organization loss (△4) is included in I4.

5. Veneer drying:

Process loss factor I5=8%, technical organization loss △5=0.4%.

6. Wood segment rotary cutting:

Usually, the process loss coefficient I6=25%, and the technical organization loss △6=2% is caused by the centering deviation.

7. Log truncation:

Process loss factor: I7=4%, I7 includes technical organization loss (△7).


After the loss coefficient of each process is determined, the required amount of raw materials for this process can be calculated from the following formula:

Qn=(m³/per shift)

In the formula: Qn——the required amount of raw materials for this process (m³/per shift);

Qn-1——The required amount of raw materials for the previous step in the calculation process. Since the calculation is performed backwards, it is actually the next process in the process flow; (m³/per shift)

In——the process loss coefficient of the process;

△n——Technical loss coefficient of this process.

The calculation of each process is as follows:

① Number of finished products in storage

Q into = Q has (1-Io)

In the formula: Qcheng——the quantity of finished plywood in storage (m³/per shift)

Qhas - processed plywood to be inspected, Qhas = Qcp (m³/per shift)

Io ——Sampling inspection percentage (1% for ordinary plywood, 4% for export board).

Qcheng = Q has (I-Io)=17.6099*(1-1%)=17.4338 (m³/per shift)

② The amount of plywood without surface treatment

Q not 1=Q already/(1-I1)=17.6099/(1-5%)=18.5367 (m³/per shift)

③ The amount of plywood without trimming

Q not = Q not 1/(1-I2-△1,2)= 18.5367/(1-0.1-0.03)=21.3066 (m³/per shift)

④ The volume of blanks before hot pressing (that is, the number of dry veneers after dry repair)

Q dry 1= Q not/(1-I3-△3)= 21.3066/(1-0.15-0.005)=25.2149 (m³/per shift)

⑤ The amount of veneer after drying

Q dry = Q dry 1/(1-I4)= 25.2149/(1-10%)=28.0166 (m³/per shift)

⑥ Amount of wet veneer before drying

Q wet = Q dry/(1-I5-△5)= 28.0166/(1-8%-0.4%)=30.5858 (m³/per shift)

⑦ Wood segment volume for peeling

Q wood = Q wet/(1-I6-△6)= 30.5858/(1-25%-2%)=41.8984 (m³/per shift)

⑧ Log requirement

Q original = Q wood/(1-I7)= 41.8984/(1-4%)=43.6442 (m³/per shift)

The material η of the plywood can then be calculated as:

η=Qcheng/Qoriginal×100%=17.4338/43.6442=39.95%

And the amount of logs consumed per 1 cubic meter of finished product can also be obtained:

K= Q Yuan/Q Cheng=43.6442/17.4338=2.50 (m3/m3)
