At present, reinforced concrete materials are mainly used for buildings, but the reinforced concrete materials cause huge energy consumption in the production process, the environment burden caused by difficult degradation of waste building materials is heavier and heavier, and the society has a great call for green materials. The round bamboo is a building, decoration and decorating material with huge application potential due to the advantages of high growth speed, wide material source, convenient material acquisition, low processing energy consumption and the like. Due to the lack of industrialized processing equipment, the round bamboo is processed into the artificial board by utilizing the idea of multi-reference wood utilization, and the processing process not only causes the damage of the excellent structure of the round bamboo, but also causes huge material waste.
Compared with other biological materials such as wood and the like, the round bamboo has excellent bending performance and bending stability, and the utilization rate of the round bamboo can be effectively improved by utilizing the round bamboo to manufacture the bending component, so that the method is an important way for effectively retaining the original state of the round bamboo, exerting the excellent bending performance of the round bamboo and realizing the use of the wood.

The device of this application provides great convenience for the bending process of bamboo articles of relatively small volume, but for round bamboos of a certain volume and length, it is not suitable because it needs to be transported to a certain heating bending area first.
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, the industrial processing method for improving the processing efficiency, the product quality and the processing precision is needed to be invented for processing the round bamboo raw material.
