An Investigation of the Crack Tendency on Wood Surfaces After Different Machining Operations

Summary
A hypothesis describing tip-crack generation during different machining operations on sapwood of pine surfaces and the differences between the pith side and bark side were investigated. The goal was to determine whether initial tip-cracks are generated already during the machining operation, before weathering. The evaluation of the results showed that about 10 % of the annual rings on the pith side and about 1% of the annual rings on the bark side have cracks after the machining operation.
A theoretical analysis of an idealised model using the finite element method (FEM) has also been carried out to investigate the tendency for growth of short initial tip-cracks during a simulation of the compression of a wood piece in a conventional planing operation. The analysis seems to confirm that there is a greater risk for cracks on the pith side than on the bark side.
