Modern needs of consumers require expanding the range of environmentally friendly products, as well as providing Ukrainian industry with raw materials for the manufacture of military and special-purpose goods. It can be done with the help of Ukrainian production of fibrous flax products using new technologies and innovative developments. The purpose of the work was to search for improved production conditions for processing long-fibred flax and develop a method of processing trusts without dividing the fiber into long and short to provide the national producer with a high-quality fibrous product with the possibility of expanded conditions for its use. An analysis of the technical and technological capabilities of fiber producers was carried out, consumer demand for natural fiber was determined, theoretical approaches to cleaning the fibrous material were clarified to achieve this goal. The study of qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the fibrous product were carried out according to organoleptic and instrumental methods of evaluation in the conditions of production control. The most significant factors of influence, which have the greatest influence on the passage of the processes of breaking stems and scutching fibrous raw flax were determined during the a priori experiment. Regression models of the boonness process in different parts of the proposed equipment were obtained through the use of software and the use of regression analysis by modeling the technological process of obtaining the same type of fiber according to the developed innovative components. This process was designed to determine the rational parameters of the process of cleaning the fibrous product. The conditions of use of the proposed equipment and the influence of the work of different parts of the equipment on the economic result of the processing of the long-fibred flax straws were clarified in the work. Directions for further use of the obtained fibrous product were also established. The obtained results of research can help the national producer of goods of everyday use and special and military purposes to solve the problem of providing high-quality fiber raw materials, to increase the competitiveness of Ukrainian products in the internal and foreign markets of goods and services
