1. Raw material preparation  

  Logs are debarked, cleaned of impurities, and cut to suitable lengths.

2. Strand production  

  A long-strand flaker processes logs into oriented long strands (typically 50–120mm in length).

3. Drying  

  A rotary drum dryer reduces the strand moisture content to 2–5% in preparation for gluing.

4. Screening and gluing  

  Fine particles are screened out; core and surface layer strands are retained. Adhesive (MDI or phenolic resin) is applied uniformly.

5. Oriented forming  

  A graded forming station cross-orients the strands (fine for surface layers, coarse for the core layer) to form a mat.

6. Pre-pressing  

  A continuous pre-press compacts the mat under low pressure to give it sufficient strength for conveying.

7. Hot pressing  

  A continuous flat hot press cures the adhesive under high temperature (180–220°C) and high pressure to form stable panels.

8. Post-processing  

   Cooling turner: uniformly reduces temperature and relieves internal stress  

   Edge trimmer: cuts raw edges to standard width  

   Sander: improves surface smoothness and thickness accuracy  

9. Inspection and packaging  

  Automatic stacking, quality grading, and moisture-proof packaging ready for shipment.
