  • Patent number: 12722322
    Abstract: A system for manufacturing a three-dimensionally deformed plate made of a wood fiber material comprises a preheating station, a wetting device, and a molding station including two rollers spaced apart for receipt of a preheated and wetted flat wood fiber material plate therebetween. The rollers respectively include an external surface including a wave-shaped profiling in the peripheral direction, wherein the respective profiling has half-waves which follow one another in the peripheral direction, and which have a different extension in the peripheral direction.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 12090682
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a three-dimensionally deformed plate made of a wood fiber material comprises providing a prefabricated, flat wood fiber material plate as the original plate, preheating the original plate in sections, wetting the preheated section of the original plate with an atomized liquid mixture of water and a separating agent, introducing a section of the original plate that is preheated and wetted with a liquid mixture of water and a separating agent between two rollers of a molding station, wherein the rollers respectively provide a corrugated profile in the peripheral direction of the external surface, such that the original plate is being deformed in sections into a plate with a wave shape, wherein rollers are being used, the respective profiling of which has half-waves which follow one another in the peripheral direction and which at least partially have a different extension in the peripheral direction.
