The production process of incense sticks is very complicated. The production of bamboo stick incense requires selecting high-quality bamboo, splitting it into small bamboo sticks, and then drying them. The raw materials for making incense are finely processed elm bark and sandalwood, combined with pigments and additives. Then, slowly dip the bamboo sticks in fragrant powder. This is the key step in the production method of bamboo stick incense, which may seem simple but is quite troublesome.



At present, there are three common methods for making bamboo stick incense: one is the traditional handmade pouring method; The second method is manual powder coating and mechanical bucket punching; The third is the pressure (hydraulic or pneumatic) machine strike method. Each of the three methods has its own advantages. The first two methods are suitable for making bamboo sticks with very small diameters, but they require high technical skills from workers. Moreover, production efficiency is influenced by the level of proficiency of workers. Due to the ease of errors caused by manual production, the surface of the product can sometimes be rough and oversized. The latter method is fully mechanized, as long as the ingredients are appropriate, it can produce a perfectly smooth and uniform bamboo stick fragrance. But sometimes the mechanical process is limited by the equipment and can only produce bamboo sticks with larger diameters.
