Abstract: A method of manufacturing a floor board comprises the steps of supplying a panel, printing a curable substance or surface removing substance onto the panel in a predefined pattern for creating an elevation on the panel at the pattern or removing a portion of the surface of the panel at the pattern, respectively, and curing the curable substance or removing any reaction products of the surface removing substance and the panel.

Abstract: A method is provided for manufacturing a panel. The method may involve supplying a substrate having an upper side. A layer may be provided onto the upper side. The upper side may be irradiated so as to cure at least a part of the layer by irradiation, hence forming the panel. The layer may include a liquid coating on substantially the entire upper side and a substance which is digitally printed locally on the upper side. The substance and the liquid coating may cooperate such that either (1) the coating and the substance react with each other, whereas the substance is a liquid that is printed on the upper side before the coating is applied and wherein the substance and the coating have different surface tensions, or (2) the coating is non-curable or only curable to a limited extent by the irradiation, whereas the substance makes the coating curable by the irradiation at locations where they meet each other.

Abstract: A method is provided for manufacturing panels having a substrate and a decorative top layer that may include a printed motif and a transparent or translucent protective layer formed there above. The method may involve providing the substrate. A finishing layer may be applied for forming a portion of the protective layer. Recesses may be formed at a surface of the finishing layer. Forming the recesses may involve applying a surface structure-altering agent that is colored.

Abstract: A wall or ceiling panel assembly includes: at least one panel of rectangular or oblong shape provided with coupling means on at least two opposite long sidewalls of the panel. The length of the panel is greater than 1200 mm. The panel includes: at least a base layer having a mineral-based filler, and a decorative layer on top of the base layer, a coupling means on at least one long sidewall and a complementary coupling means on the opposite long sidewall. The panel further has a stiffening member adjacent to one of the long sidewalls.

Abstract: A method is provided for manufacturing panels with a substrate and a decorative top layer that may include a printed motif and a transparent or translucent protective layer formed there above. The method may involve applying a first and a second finishing layer for forming a first and a second portion of the protective layer. Recesses may be formed at the surface of the second finishing layer. Hard particles may be provided in the first finishing layer.

Abstract: A Press element and a method for manufacturing a structured press element, wherein a heterogeneous mask is applied on a metallic base element, after which a surface treatment is carried out and the heterogeneous mask has a certain resistance to the surface treatment.

Abstract: A floor panel includes several side edges extending in the peripheral direction of the floor panel behind one another and separated from one another by a corner, and a plastic top surface delimited by the side edges. A portion of the top surface is provided with at least two elongate zones with a mutually different texture which also deviates from the texture of an area of the top surface which adjoins the zones. The zones form edge zones, each of which extends along one of the side edges or the long sides of the zones adjoin each other.
