To counteract these issues, researchers have developed reinforced wood products that incorporate materials such as steel, aluminium, carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP), glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP), and basalt fibres, which enhance strength and stability while reducing dimensional changes. Despite these advances, there is limited research on optimal bonding techniques, particularly surface preparation, which is crucial for effective gluing. To address this gap, this study aims to determine the most suitable mechanical surface preparation and adhesive to achieve satisfactory gluing of oak to oak. Understanding the optimal surface preparation and bonding techniques is a crucial first step before exploring the incorporation of nonwood implants in the next phase of research. Therefore, this study investigates the influence of three surface machining methods (planing, sanding, and face milling) on the performance of bonded Slavonian oak joints (<i>Quercus robur</i>, L.) in dry and artificially aged state (AA). The various machined surfaces were tested using five adhesives: polyvinyl acetate (PVAC), 1k polyurethane (PUR1), fibre-reinforced polyurethane (PUR2), 2k polyurethane (PUR3), and epoxy adhesive (ER). The surface properties of the wood and the bonding properties of the glued wooden joints were measured. The wetting angle was tested according to EN 828, the surface energy was calculated according to the Wu and OWRK methods, while the compressive shear strength test samples were prepared and tested according to the ISO 6238 standard in the dry and AA state. Visual designation of the main failure patterns and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of adhesive line integrity and adhesive penetration were also used to evaluate the joint bonding properties. The sanded surface results in the best wettability and the highest surface energy, which may be attributed to changes in surface morphology and structure of chemical components on the wood surface. The strength of PVAc glued joints was affected only by different machining, ER and PUR1 were affected by different machining and/or by AA, while PUR2 and PUR3 were affected neither by different machining nor by AA. PUR types of adhesives have proven to be the most suitable for bonding moisture-resistant face-milled, planed, or sanded joints.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":550,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Wood and Wood Products","volume":"83 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142994373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Furniture plants produce a diverse array of models, with each process uniquely adding to the costs. In this multiproduct, multipart and multi-process manufacturing, it is difficult to accurately predict the processing time of new models and the lead time for highly customized orders. The processing time of parts is critical for optimizing, estimating the lead time and pricing the products, particularly for new models. Machine Learning (ML) is a useful tool to analyze and control manufacturing parameters and could be applied to furniture factories too. In this study the authors demonstrated the use of a ML-based framework to predict the processing time of wooden furniture based on the design of parts and actual manufacturing data. Specifically, the objectives are to define the accuracy of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) in classifying furniture parts according to their design characteristics into categories such as Plain, 2D, and 3D curved, and define the accuracy of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in taking CNN data along with real manufacturing processing time data for identifying and analyzing intricate correlations between parts and manufacturing processes, thereby facilitating precise prediction of processing time. Images of the furniture’s parts design and data from a time and motion study in mass production in a plant were used to develop the models. The models' R<sup>2</sup>, Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) were calculated as a criterion for defining accuracy. Random Forest and Gradient Boosting regression models were developed to compare and validate against ANN for predicting processing time, ensuring the robustness and reliability of the ML-based framework.
