The present invention relates to a bamboo strip shaping device and method, belonging to the technical field of phyllostachys pubescens processing.
China is a large country of bamboo planting and bamboo industry. Bamboo products are closely related to people's lives and permeate every aspect of people's daily life. However, the natural tubular structure of the bamboo has a small radian, which does not facilitate the processing and utilization of curved bamboo strips. At the same time, the difference between curvature radii of different phyllostachys pubescens also limits their application. It is necessary to solve the problem how the bamboo can be processed into a specific radian, namely the same curvature radius, so as to facilitate the processing and utilization of the bamboo.
In view of the technical problem to be solved, the present invention provides a bamboo strip shaping device and method, which achieve crack-free same-radian shaping and drying shaping of curved bamboo strips by a method of steam softening and then shaping and drying shaping for many times, and can widen the processing and utilization range of bamboos.
