The diagram illustrates the process of matches manufacture and preparation for sale on the market. Overall, it is apparent that there are several stages in the production of matches.
The process begins with cutting the wood and ends at the packing stage
Looking at the first stage of the production of matchsticks, a log of wood is placed in a peeler and rotated while blade peels a thin of wood, called veneer.
These veneers are then chopped to small sticks in the second stage. Next, small sticks will be soaked in tank of ammonium phosphate. In the following stage, soaked sticks are placed in rolling dryer. After that, the matches are blown in hopper and passed through metal duct to the storage area.
In the next stage, the matchsticks in storage area are fall into funnel-shaped device, which will be lined up and inserted into a perforated steel belt. While the belt moves along, the tips of matchsticks are dipped in three tanks, paraffin wax, based chemicals, tip chemical respectively. In the following stage the matches moved to drying area. Finally, the matchsticks are packaged.
