[0020] Please refer to Figures 5-6 The drying room includes a heat preservation room 100, a plurality of heating sources 101 are arranged transversely on one side of the heat preservation room 100 in the length direction, and a circulating fan 102 is arranged on the inner side of each heating source 101; a uniform air distribution plate 103 is vertically arranged on the bottom plate of the heat preservation room 100 on the inner side of the circulating fan 102, the uniform air distribution plate 103 is uniformly provided with air holes, the height of the uniform air distribution plate 103 is lower than the height of the heat preservation room 100, the top end of the uniform air distribution plate 103 is transversely provided with a circulating partition plate 106, and the circulating partition plate 106 is provided with a flowing gap with the two side walls of the heat preservation room 100 in the length direction; a drying vehicle position 105 is arranged in the heat preservation room 100 at a position corresponding to the circulating fan 102; and a dehumidification system 104 is arranged at the top end of the heat preservation room 100. The plurality of circulating fans are arranged transversely in the drying room, one circulating fan 102 corresponds to one multi-layer drying vehicle of the semi-dry light fiber board, the hot air circulation distance is shortened, the hot air can flow through the fiber board more quickly and directly, and the heat loss of the airflow in the transmission process is reduced, that is, the temperature difference of each semi-dry light fiber board in the whole vehicle is very small. The drying process in step S9, the drying temperature of the drying room is automatically controlled by PLC, the drying of the board is automatically operated according to the preset drying process curve in the initial drying stage, the middle drying stage and the later drying stage, the drying process is accurately controlled, and the balance and stability of the board drying are ensured. In the initial stage of drying, the moisture evaporation amount is large due to the high water content of the plate, and the drying and moisture removal amount is large, so the drying temperature should not be too high to avoid the rapid evaporation and drying of the surface water of the semi-dry light fiberboard, forming a dense "hard shell" that hinders the diffusion of internal moisture through the pores, making it difficult to remove internal moisture, resulting in the phenomenon of dry outside and wet inside. In severe cases, due to the large difference between the surface and internal moisture content, strong internal stress may occur, the surface shrinks due to water loss, and the interior is still in a high moisture state. This stress difference may cause the fiberboard to bend, warp, or even crack on the surface or inside; In the middle stage of drying, the evaporation amount is reduced, and the drying and moisture removal amount is reduced accordingly, so the drying temperature can be appropriately increased. In the late stage of drying, the evaporation amount is further reduced, and the moisture removal amount is further reduced, so the drying temperature should be reduced to avoid quality changes or even cracking of the plate due to high-temperature baking of the plate surface, and to balance the drying performance of the plate.
