1987
Rachman, O | Balfas, J.
This paper presents the results of test on machining properties of 28 wood species from Bogor and Sukabumi, West Java (Indonesia). The test method used was the modified ASTM D-1666 described in the Forest Products Research Institute Report No.160 (1982). The samples (25 pieces/species) were dried to equilibrium moisture content condition (15 to 18 percent). The machining properties investigated were planing, shaping, boring, mortising, turning and sanding. The species that have good or very good machining properties are kobari, pasang jambe, pasang beureum, mahoni daun lebar, pentadesma, cloropora, eucalyptus, meranti batu, pinus I, mahoni, and pinus III. Species such as kelumpang, enterolobium and cecropia are consistently poorer. The other species are good in some properties and fair or poor in others.
