Abstract: A method for the continuous production of plates and/or shaped bodies of fibre reinforced hydraulic setting masses is described in which the mass is provided in a predetermined thickness over the entire width of the plate to be produced, on a substrate continuously moved by a belt. Fibre cuttings from a cutting device are dispersed in a desired distribution onto the surface of the mass moving with the substrate and these are subsequently incorporated into the mass by a tool acting uniformly over the entire width of the mass. The raw plate can be further processed in its still deformable condition and brought into a desired final shape.
