The invention relates to a 
moisture-proof performance detection 
machine and detection method for edge-sealed plate type furniture, and relates to the technical field of furniture performance tests. The 
moisture-proof performance detection 
machine comprises a furniture test piece, a master control platform, a host platform, a constant-temperature water bath box arranged on the host platform and a transferring 
assembly, and a negative-pressure clamping 
assembly is arranged on the outer side of the transferring 
assembly; the furniture test piece is clamped on the negative pressure clamping assembly, and the negative pressure clamping assembly is driven by the transferring assembly to stretch the furniture test piece into the constant-temperature water bath box to be soaked; and the detection 
machine further comprises an electronic weighing platform which is arranged on the host platform and electrically connected with the master control platform. Aiming at the conditions that the thicknesses of all positions of the special-shaped edge sealing plate type furniture are different and the to-be-detected point positions are not easy to determine, the 
volume expansion rate of the furniture test piece can be determined according to different volume values before and after soaking, the 
moisture resistance of the furniture test piece can be directly reflected, the 
moisture resistance can be used as a basis for judging the 
moisture resistance quality of the edge sealing plate type furniture, the detection is convenient and rapid, and the practicability is high.
