  • Publication number: 20240060240
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for producing a decorative paper by a digital printing machine, wherein the method comprises the following steps: a. providing at least one base stock; b. printing a surface of the base stock with a primer, so as to result in a printed base stock; c. printing the surface of the printed base stock with at least one printing ink by means of the digital printing machine, wherein, at at least one location, the surface of the base stock is not printed with the primer or with the printing ink.

  • Publication number: 20220097275
    Abstract: Provided a method for manufacturing an abrasion- and water-resistant multilayer panel, in particular an abrasion- and water-resistant flooring panel, including the steps: providing at least one plastic carrier plate, in particular a PVC carrier plate; applying at least one decorative layer to the at least one plastic carrier plate; applying at least one primer layer to the at least one decorative layer; and uniformly scattering abrasion-resistant particles onto the at least one primer layer applied to the decorative layer applying at least one cover layer.

  • Publication number: 20220024169
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a press plate for creating deep structures in panel-like products, for example in wood-based boards or laminates made of resin-coated papers, composed of a metallic base body, in which strip-shaped and/or frame-like webs, which have a higher thermal conductivity than the base body, are inserted in depressions provided.

  • Publication number: 20210268685
    Abstract: The method relates to a method for producing a wood material panel. The method includes the following steps: (a) scattering a multitude of wood particles to produce a particulate cake, (b) applying an adhesive to at least some of the wood particles during the scattering and/or prior to the scattering, and (c) pressing of the particulate cake under high pressure and at a high temperature, wherein a quantity of adhesive that is applied to the wood particles is varied depending on its anticipated position in the particulate cake.

  • Patent number: 10955357
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an OSB, wherein a scattered mat formed by strands adhered in multiple layers is pressed in a hot press to form a panel with a desired thickness, comprising the following steps: a) scanning the surface of an upper side of the mat or of the pressed panel to determine uneven areas and/or faults; b) determining position data of the determined uneven areas and/or faults; c) determining the volumes of the individual uneven areas and/or faults; d) targeted filling of the uneven areas and/or faults with a filling material, based on the determined position data and volumes, wherein e) the filling material is scattered with a scattering device.

  • Publication number: 20200198174
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for producing a wood material panel with at least one layer with an inhomogeneous density profile, including the steps: scattering a multitude of wood particles to produce a particulate cake, pressing the particulate cake to form a layer of the wood material panel, and scattering different pre-determined quantities of wood particles in at least two areas within the particulate cake.
