Reasonable micro-pit texture has been proved to be able to improve the friction characteristics between wood and cemented carbide. In this paper, the finite element simulation analysis was used to simulate the friction surface stress, the simulation model was determined, and the simulation results were combined with the friction characteristics test to study the influence of different texture types on the friction coefficient of wood surface. The results show that the friction coefficient and the stress magnitude of friction between cemented carbide and wood surface have a good linear correlation(R2 = 0.9414), the finite element simulation can provide a reference for the study of friction behavior in wood cutting process. The friction coefficient can be influenced by texture parameters such as texture type, the friction length, the width of micro-texture and the angle of micro-texture. Under the condition of the same texture area occupancy, the surface friction coefficient of micro-pit texture is the smallest; The surface friction coefficient of the micro-groove texture is the largest, and the micro-grid texture has the smaller friction coefficient with the decrease of the texture angle. This is related to the actual contact area between the texture area of the friction area and the wood surface and the main braking force generated during contact.
