The paper is devoted to solving problems related to developing scientific bases for resource-saving technologies in bast crops complex processing. The work contains theoretical and experimental research in processing flax and hemp raw materials.
The work objective is to find ways to improve the production conditions for processing bast fibre plants and to solve the problems of ameliorating the qualitative and quantitative bast fibre characteristics by improving the technological features of stem material processing and structural design application to the joint connections of the devices for processing bast-fibre raw materials. The paper also analyses current trends in the flax and hemp processing industry development, investigates the technical and technological features of processing bast-fibre crop stems and assesses the directions for increasing their processing efficiency.
