Abstract: A method of processing a part includes: identifying (2502) a location of at least one hole (62) disposed in the part using a computer-aided design (CAD) model of the part (36); aligning (2504) the part in a mounting system (56); 3D-scanning (2506) the part (36); detecting (2520) at least one boundary feature of the hole (36) based at least partially on at least one datum from 3D-scanning (2506) the part; and generating (2536) a first toolpath (92) based at least partially on the boundary feature.

Abstract: A textured press plate for use in the manufacture of decorative laminate is provided. The textured press plate is manufactured by the method include the steps of applying a UV curable acrylate mixture to a surface of a press plate substrate, irradiating the UV curable acrylate mixture with LED precure by excimer UV to create a UV-irradiated layer having a surface exhibiting micro-folding, and fully curing the UV-irradiated layer to form a textured coating layer.

Abstract: A water impervious wall panel system includes an intermediate first wall panel composed of a waterproof core and a decorative surfacing attached to the core, wherein the intermediate first wall panel is provided with tongue-and-groove edges. The water impervious wall panel system also includes an end second wall panel composed of a waterproof core and a decorative surfacing attached to the core, wherein the end second wall panel is provided with a tongue-and-groove edge and a rolled edge.

Abstract: A textured release sheet includes a substrate including a top side and a bottom side. A matte surface is formed on the bottom side thereof, wherein the matte surface of the surfacing material is a coating of an radiation curable material applied to the bottom side of the substrate. The coating is an UV curable acrylate mixture applied to the substrate, wherein the UV curable acrylate mixture is irradiated with UV-radiation via an excimer laser emitter to produce a UV-irradiated layer wherein the UV curable acrylate mixture is only crosslinked on the surface thereof, which produces a matting surface through the effects of a micro-convolution.

Abstract: A decorative laminate lay-up used in the manufacture of decorative laminates includes a decorative laminate sheet assembly composed of resin impregnated paper layers and a textured release sheet positioned on a top surface of the decorative laminate sheet assembly. The textured release sheet provides a textured surface to decorative laminates resulting from processing of the decorative laminate sheet assembly, wherein the textured release sheet includes a textured surface exhibiting anti-reflective, hydrophobic and oleophobic characteristics leading to a fingerprint proof surface.

Abstract: A decorative laminate lay-up used in the manufacture of decorative laminates includes a decorative laminate sheet assembly composed of resin impregnated paper layers and a textured release sheet positioned on a top surface of the decorative laminate sheet assembly. The textured release sheet provides a textured surface to decorative laminates resulting from processing of the decorative laminate sheet assembly, wherein the textured release sheet includes a textured surface exhibiting superhydrophobicity, self-cleaning and low surface energy.

Abstract: A textured release sheet includes a substrate, which has been electron beam treated, including a top side and a bottom side. A matte surface is formed on the bottom side thereof, wherein the matte surface of the surfacing material is a coating of an radiation curable material applied to the bottom side of the substrate. The coating is an UV curable acrylate mixture applied to the substrate, wherein the UV curable acrylate mixture is irradiated with UV-radiation via an excimer laser emitter to produce a UV-irradiated layer wherein the UV curable acrylate mixture is only crosslinked on the surface thereof, which produces a matting surface through the effects of a micro-convolution.

Abstract: A surfacing material includes a substrate having a top side and a bottom side. A matte surface is formed on the bottom side thereof, wherein the matte surface of the surfacing material is a coating of an electron beam radiation curable material applied to the bottom side of the substrate. The coating is an epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic laid upon the substrate. The epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic is irradiated with UV-radiation to produce a UV-radiation layer wherein the epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic is neither hardened nor is an entire layer of the epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic crosslinked but rather the epoxy acrylic or urethane acrylic only crosslinked on the surface thereof, which produces a matting surface through the effects of a micro-convolution.
