covered with a thin randomly oriented fibrous scrim material and the fibers are locked to each other and to the scrim mechanically by means of needling them together the web is formed by drying wood fibers spreading them into a mat covering the mat with the synthetic fibers and thereafter dispersing the fibers through a dispersion chamber and recollecting and re spreading them into a web by means of a picker roller gravity dropping a powdery resinous molding material upon the web redistributing and intermixing the fibers and the molding material with a second picker roller applying the scrim and needling the combined scrim and fiber web for mechanically interlocking them application_number US 18229887 A description referring to fig1 a bale of wood fibers enters the line of equipment upon a conveyor 11 the wood fibers for example may form a bale which is approximately 12 inches u00d7 12 inches u00d7 36 inches weighing about 60 lbs and having a moisture content of up to about 20 by weight the wood is preferably of what is called a soft hardwood for example wood of the aspen family including yellow poplar and similar such woods which are commercially available in fiber form the bale 10 proceeds into a bale breaker and shredder 12 which is schematically shown this breaks up and shreds the bale into loose fibers 13 which are deposited upon a removal conveyor 14 the fibers 13 are deposited into a feed hopper 15 of a dryer 16 although different commercially available dryers may be used a preferred dryer is a commercially available tubular forced air dryer having a hot air blower.
