Bamboo Processing Machine (Arulepsa)
About the Practice
Bamboo Processing
Detail:
The dedicated bamboo processing machine is an integrated unit that can remove knots, do the planing and polishing of the surface and facilitate inner and outer contouring of the job. Precision control is achieved with a soft touch, four-way joystick linked to a robust electro-mechanical control logic kernel. The machine has overall size of 4x2x12 ft and weighs 75 kg. It is electrically operated using a 1 HP motor running on 230 V AC supply to drive a spindle at the range of 40 to 90 RPM. It has been built with dedicated and independent sub-systems including the two stage planer, the bamboo feeder assembly, the self adjusting gripper assembly and two sets of fixtures for inner and outer contouring (carving). The Planer assembly is the heart of machine and consists of a two-stage planer unit. The first stage achieves removal of the outer green covering and knots and the second stage makes the surface smooth. Prior art mentions machines for removing the outer green layer and knots of bamboo. Prior art has also disclosed individual machines for multipurpose and cross cutting, parallel splitting and sizing of bamboo. Universally, complete woodworking on bamboo needs an assortment of machines such as Four Side Planer, Sanding machine, Finger jointing machine, Double End Cutting and Shaping Machine and Stick Sizing machine for making the stick in the desired size. Separate machines have also been used for internal and external knot removal, slicing the bamboo for making slivers, and making the square bamboo sticks and a tool post accessory fitment for polishing them. The highlight of Imli Toshi’s equipment lies in using a single versatile wood processing platform that facilitates seamless removal of knots, planing, polishing and carving of bamboo. The precision in work is achieved by deploying the dedicated control center and a user friendly four way joystick.
