Abstract
An X-ray based experimental study is presented for determining the overlaps and horizontal density distribution (HDD) in a robot formed wood flakeboar d mat. The relationship between overlaps and the X-ray intensity ratio has been developed. The results show that the calibration materials have little effect on the overlaps obtained from X-ray scanning and the estimated over laps highly agree with those from computer simulations. Robot formed flakeb oard mats have higher repeatability with lower deviation in both overlaps d istribution and HDD.
