As you know, raw wood cannot be made into furniture directly, it has a lot of moisture not good for making into furniture. Too much moisture in wood, made into furniture, it will become not durable furniture, and easily get moldy or crack because of temperature changes.

Here are some tips for making the wood no deformation, no discoloration, and no cracks:

  • Proper moisture content measurement: Accurate measurement of the initial moisture content of the wood before drying is essential. This helps determine the optimal drying parameters and prevents over-drying or under-drying.

  • Controlled drying conditions: Maintaining consistent and controlled drying conditions, including temperature, humidity, and airflow, is crucial. This helps ensure uniform drying and minimizes the risk of discoloration and cracking. Monitoring and adjusting these conditions throughout the drying process can further optimize the results.

  • Gradual moisture removal: Implementing a gradual drying process allows for the gradual release of moisture from the wood. Rapid drying can lead to uneven moisture distribution and increase the likelihood of defects such as cracking. Controlling the drying rate helps maintain wood integrity.

  • Proper stacking and airflow: Arranging the wood properly in the drying area promotes efficient airflow. This allows for even circulation of air around the wood, facilitating moisture evaporation and reducing the risk of mold growth or uneven drying.

  • Conditioning and rest period: After the initial drying phase, allowing the wood to rest and reach moisture equilibrium is important. Conditioning the wood helps equalize the moisture content throughout the wood, reducing the potential for post-drying defects like warping or cracking.

  • Quality control and monitoring: Regular inspection of the wood during the drying process is essential to identify any issues promptly. This allows for necessary adjustments to the drying conditions, ensuring the desired drying quality.


By implementing these measures, it is possible to achieve efficient wood drying while ensuring that the wood dries quickly without discoloration and cracking.
