The fibre separation processes of bast fibre consist of breaking, scutching and heckling operations. With mechanical separation, in a process called breaking, the woody core is crushed and breaks into short pieces(called hurds) and some of it is separated from the bast fibre. Breaking may be done manually with a wooden hammer or by passing the stalks between fluted rollers. 2, record 1, English, - breaking

L'acquisition de la filasse se divise traditionnellement en cinq temps : l'égrenage, le rouissage, le broyage, le teillage et le peignage. [...] Le broyage sert à casser l'écorce des tiges, le teillage à débarrasser les fibres des anas et le peignage à ordonner les fibres et à en amincir les faisceaux. 2, record 1, French, - broyage

Ce dernier se pratiquait en maintenant les paquets de tiges rouies dans une fente ménagée dans une planche verticale et en les frappant longitudinalement à la main (à l'aide d'un écang) ou à l'aide d'écangs multiples fixés à une roue (moulin flamand).
