Process for detaching and cutting cork bark

摘要

Process which comprises making radial perforations without touching the core of the tree, into which perforations a needle is coupled via which a fluid pressurized at 2 kg/cm2 is injected, by means of which the cork and bark proper of the tree is detached from the core, forming a chamber or annular space occupied by the actual fluid. The next operation is that of cutting the cork and bark by means of cuts made by a tool such as an axe or circular saw. <IMAGE>
