Furniture boards—core substrates for modern furniture manufacturing, including engineered wood boards (MDF, particleboard, plywood) and solid wood boards (oak, pine, walnut)—require strict moisture control. Excess moisture (typically >12% for finished boards) causes furniture deformation (warping, cracking), paint film peeling, or mold growth; insufficient moisture (<6%) leads to board brittleness. Traditional drying methods (hot air drying, steam drying) suffer from long cycles, uneven moisture distribution, and substrate damage. Microwave drying has emerged as a high-efficiency, quality-focused solution, tailored to the diverse properties of furniture boards while ensuring stable performance for downstream processing. In conclusion, furniture board microwave drying is a transformative technology that solves the core pain points of traditional drying (long cycles, poor uniformity, substrate damage). It aligns with the furniture industry’s demands for high-quality, eco-friendly, and efficient production—especially as consumers increasingly prioritize stable, long-lasting furniture. With ongoing advancements in equipment and control systems, microwave drying will become a standard process in modern furniture board manufacturing.
