The disclosure relates to a wood material panel hot press for producing a wood material panel, wherein the wood material panel hot press has an inlet side and an outlet side, and is designed to press a blank supplied on the inlet side in order to form a wood material panel. According to the invention, a temperature measurement device is provided which is designed to automatically measure the temperature (T) of the wood material panel on the outlet side in a spatially resolved manner.

A method to provide a floor covering, including the steps of: providing a sheet vinyl; providing a PVC intermediate including at least a first layer of PVC material and at least a first reinforcing sheet, the first layer of PVC material providing the upper side of the PVC intermediate. The method also includes adhering the sheet vinyl to the PVC intermediate by laminating the lower side of the sheet vinyl to the upper side of the PVC intermediate.

A method is provided comprising: providing particulate material comprising or consisting of particulate wooden material, producing glued particulate wooden material by applying an adhesive to the particulate wooden material, forming a spreading material mat by homogeneously spreading the glued particulate material onto a conveyor on which the spread glued particulate material is conveyed in a conveying direction, and producing a board by pressing the spreading material mat during conveying on the conveyor. Furthermore, a reinforcement material is applied to the spread glued particulate material perpendicular to the conveying direction during forming the spreading material mat and/or after forming the spreading material mat before any pressing of the spreading material mat such that the spreading material mat has at least one longitudinal reinforcement zone containing the reinforcement material. Boards can be obtained, from which panels can be produced having reinforced longitudinal and/or transversal edges.

A method to produce a veneered element, the method including applying a first layer on a substrate, applying a second layer on a veneer layer, applying the veneer layer with the second layer applied thereto on the first layer, such that the second layer is facing the first layer, pressing the first layer, the second layer and the veneer layer together to form a veneered element, thereby material originating from the second layer permeates into the veneer layer, and wherein, after pressing, the first layer is visible through a crack, cavity, hole and/or knot of the veneer layer. Also, a veneered element.

A housing portion includes first and second inclined surfaces facing each other and inclined such that a distance between the first and second inclined surfaces decreases downward in a vertical direction. A third inclined surface located between the first and second inclined surfaces, facing the first inclined surface, inclined such that a distance between the third and first inclined surfaces decreases downward in the vertical direction, and having a first gap with respect to the first inclined surface is provided. A fourth inclined surface located between the first and second inclined surfaces, facing the second inclined surface, inclined such that a distance between the fourth and second inclined surfaces decreases downward in the vertical direction, and having a second gap with respect to the second inclined surface is provided. A suction blower causes a mixture to pass through the first and second gaps, and collects the mixture.
