Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for refining a support plate, for example a wood or wood-based panel, in particular MDF or HDF board with a top and a bottom, on the surface of the top of which a plurality of layers of a synthetic resin, preferably melamine resin applied and each layer is dried prior to the application of the next layer, wherein between two layers, a color layer is provided to produce a decoration and the dry layer structure between an upper and a lower pressure plate of a pressing device is pressed under the action of heat and pressure and thereby melt the resin layers. Furthermore, the invention relates to a pressing device.
  • a support plate for example a wood or wood-based panel, in particular MDF or HDF board with a top and a bottom
  • a plurality of layers of a synthetic resin, preferably melamine resin applied and each layer is dried prior to the application of the next layer, wherein between two layers, a color layer is provided to produce a decoration and the dry layer structure between an upper and a lower pressure plate of a
  • the method described above is for example from the EP 1 454 763 A2 known.
  • the plates produced by the process are used, for example, for furniture construction. From them, it is also possible to produce panels, in particular floor panels.
  • Floor panels with a base plate made of wood material are commonly referred to as laminate panels and have been for many years for the substitution of parquet in the trade.
  • the surface of the support plate is first ground and then applied a primer of one or more melamine resin layers.
  • the desired decor parquet, wood grain, tiles, etc.
  • a functional layer is applied for sealing the top. If the carrier plate subsequently to be further processed to floor panels, wear-resistant particles, such as corundum, are embedded in the functional layer.
  • the layer structure is pressed and in the process a structure (relief) corresponding to the decor is embossed in order to match the visual and haptic impression with the natural material reproduced by the decor.
  • WO 2007/059805 A1 From the WO 2007/059805 A1 is a coating system with flowable coating material for smooth or textured surfaces known.
  • a material web with a structured surface is used.
  • a carrier material On the input side of the coating system, a carrier material is supplied, which is coated with a flowable material.
  • a collecting device Below the material web a collecting device is provided, which is funnel-shaped in cross section together with the material web, so that the flowable material can be applied to the carrier plate. While the carrier plate is transported with the overlying web through the device, the coating material hardens and it forms in its surface, the predetermined structure of the material web.
  • the pressing device is very complex. As a coating material expensive UV coatings must be used.
  • a hot press for surface hardening of wood-based panels known.
  • one or more synthetic resin for example, melamine resin precondensates enhaltende films are applied to the support plate one or both sides and then pressed in the hot press. The resin cures and the film bonds firmly to the carrier plate. Paper webs can be laid over the press plates, by means of which the structure of the paper webs can be transferred to the surface during the pressing of the wood-based board.
  • a structured film provided with depressions and / or elevations is arranged below the upper press plate, which ensures that the molten synthetic resin flows smoothly to the depressions and / or elevations of the texturing film, whereby a.
  • the structurizer film is blown off by means of a pulse-like generated by a pneumatic device overpressure of the press plate.
  • the surface created in this way is characterized by a new visual and haptic impression.
  • the product surfaces are softer or velvety, which is due to the effect of the structurizer film instead of a hard steel pressed sheet. Since the structure is carried out in a short-cycle press by means of the structuring sensor film, the desired structure can be quickly and inexpensively changed or replaced. So it can be made on a pressing device a wide range of products. The fact that the structurizer film is blown off by means of a pulse-like overpressure of the press plate, this is solved quickly and without damage, if it should have been impregnated during pressing with synthetic resin, which then cakes on the underside of the press plate.
  • a water-based lacquer enriched with color pigments is used for the color layer.
  • a counteracting layer is preferably applied to the underside prior to pressing.
  • a liquid melamine resin is applied to the preferably previously ground top side.
  • a primer layer can then be applied to the dried melamine resin layer.
  • a pressing device for pressing and structuring carrier plate provided with a plurality of resin layers with an upper pressure plate and a lower pressure plate is characterized in that a patterning foil provided with depressions and / or elevations is to be arranged below the upper pressure plate.
  • the texturizer film is preferably applied to the press plate.
  • it is preferably fixable to the pressing plate, which can be done for example by suction, electrostatic charging or adhesion.
  • an unwinding device is arranged on one side next to the upper press plate, and a winding device for the texturing film is arranged on the opposite side.
  • the structure matching the printed decor is embossed in each case in the associated plate size.
  • the structure can be repeated on the foil tape.
  • the upper pressure plate has a press plate provided with a plurality of openings, and the openings communicate with a pneumatic device.
  • the pneumatic device preferably generates an overpressure in a pulse-like manner, which blows off the texturizer foil from the press plate.
  • a negative pressure for sucking the pattern generator film can be generated.
  • the structurizer film then completely covers the openings in the press plate.
  • the single FIGURE shows schematically the side view of a short-cycle press (KT-press) with the upper pressure plate 1 and the lower pressure plate 11.
  • the upper pressure plate 1 consists of the upper frame 2, the press pad 3 and the press plate 4.
  • Die on a press table 12th arranged lower press plate 11 consists of the base 13, the press pad 14 and the press plate 15th
  • the lower press plate 11 is rigid. About the impression cylinder 5, the upper pressure plate 1 can be lowered to the lower pressure plate 11 and pressurized.
  • the press plates 1, 11 are heated by thermal oil in a known manner.
  • the openings in the press plate 4 are connected to a both negative pressure and positive pressure generating pneumatic device 50 in connection.
  • an unwinding device 6 and a winding device 10 are arranged opposite one another.
  • the structuring film 8 is unwound from the unwinding device 6 and simultaneously wound up by the winding device 10.
  • About deflection rollers 7, 9, the Strtikturgeber film is guided below the press plate 1.
  • the large-format support plate for example an MDF or HDF plate, is abraded by 0.1 mm.
  • melamine-based liquid resin is applied to the top for priming and dried to the layer 101.
  • a primer is applied and dried.
  • a layer 102 enriched with color pigments, water-based paint is applied and thus generates the decorative layer, which is then dried.
  • at least one functional layer 103 is applied as a seal of the upper side.
  • the functional layer 103 it is possible to integrate the abrasion and / or the scratch-resistance-increasing particles.
  • the functional layer 103 can also be formed antistatic.
  • at least one counter-tensile layer 104 is applied to its underside and dried. Subsequently, the carrier plate 100 is transported into the short-cycle press and placed on the lower press plate 11.
  • the structure of the structure-donor sheet 8 corresponding to the decor of the decoration layer 102 is selected and then pulled under the upper press plate 1 by driving the take-up device 10.
  • the structure sensor film 8 is wound from the unwinding device 6.
  • the structuring film 8 is sucked onto the press plate 4 and then the upper press plate 1 is lowered onto the carrier plate 100. Due to the heat and the pressure, the resin layers melt and the liquid resin runs into the recesses or fills the gaps between the elevations of the structuring film 8, so that after curing of the resin, a structure corresponding to the decoration in the surface of the Carrier plate 100 was generated.
