Machine and manufacturing method for building board
A building board is finished in a first processing station via laterally operating processing means, where-in a first edge strip is glued along a first edge side of body element of the building board. In a second processing station a primary surface layer is glued, by vertically operating processing means, to cover the entire primary main side and the primary side of the first edge stripe. Thereafter, a vertical pressure is applied over the body element and the first edge stripe across a working direction while the body element and the first edge stripe pass the second processing station in such a manner that a primary side of the first edge stripe is brought in level with a primary main side of the body element when passing the second processing station.
Hand wetted paper
Dry, plied roll paper is transformed into hand wetted roll paper that may be used either dry, or selectively hand wetted using the device of the invention. The device is applied to the paper in liquid form, heated and cooled to form a plastic solid which becomes part of the paper. The device is then shaped into a container filled with an anti-bacterial cleaning agent, or other agent, and assembled on the paper between the top and bottom paper ply. The device is made on a modified roll-to-roll winding machine while the machine is in motion. This manufacturing method is more efficient than adding externally sourced batch-made wetting devices to paper. The hand wetted roll paper can be used as paper towels or toilet paper for dry and/or wet hygienic cleaning. The paper may have other properties depending on the agent used.
FLOOR PANEL
A floor may include a substrate having a top side and a bottom side. A top layer may be provided on the substrate. The top layer may consist of a printed thermoplastic film and a thermoplastic transparent or translucent layer provided on the printed thermoplastic film. The top layer may be directly adhered to the substrate by heat welding the printed thermoplastic film and the top side of the substrate, in the absence of a glue layer. The substrate may be a synthetic material board including a filler. The substrate at least at two opposite edges may include coupling means provided in the synthetic material board. The thermoplastic transparent or translucent layer may be provided with a structure.
