Analysis of surface roughness of different woods in the provinces of Pinar del Rio and Artemisa, Cuba

Abstract

The objective of this work was to the characteristics of the planing tests on the wood of Pinus caribaea Morelet var. caribaea Barret and Golfari, Acacia mangium Willd, Gmelina arborea Roxb, Samanea saman (Jacq.) Merril and Eucalyptus saligna Sm. The study material was obtained in plantations located in the agroforestry companies Pinar del Rio, Macurije and Costa Sur in the provinces of Pinar del Rio and Artemisa, Cuba. The planning tests, the evaluation of defects and classification were carried out according to ASTM D-1666-2004 and DIN/ISO 1302:2002.ASTM D-1666-2004 and Norma DIN/ISO 1302. In general, the woods studied were classified as species with excellent workability, so they can be used in the production of products with higher added value.
