Abstract

A method for finishing wood-based panels, especially MDF or HDF panels, involves sealing with melamine resin and printing a pattern directly onto the sealing layer before adding a protective layer of melamine resin and hot-pressing as usual. A method for finishing sheets of wood or timber products, especially MDF or HDF sheet, involves (a) coating the top of the sheet with a sealing layer (A) of melamine resin, (b) printing a pattern onto the sealing layer, (c) coating the pattern with a protective layer (B) of melamine resin and (d) pressing the sheet at elevated temperature until layers (A) and (B) melt and bond together with the printed pattern between them. An independent claim is also included for timber sheeting, especially HDF or MDF flooring panels with a wood or tile pattern, in which the base panel is coated with a sealing layer which is then printed with a pattern and provided with protective anti-wear coating(s).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Veredeln einer Holzwerkstoffplatte, insbesondere MDF- oder HDF-Platte mit einer Oberseite und einer Unterseite. Solche Platten werden beispielsweise für den Möbelbau verwendet. Aus ihnen können auch Paneele, insbesondere Fußbodenpaneele hergestellt werden.The invention relates to a method for finishing a wood material board, in particular MDF or HDF board with a top and a bottom. Such plates are used for example for furniture construction. From them also panels, in particular floor panels can be produced.

Fußbodenpaneele mit einer Trägerplatte aus Holzwerkstoff werden üblicherweise als Laminatpaneele bezeichnet und sind seit vielen Jahren zur Substitution von Parkett im Handel. Das gewünschte Dekor (Parkett, Holzmaserung, Fliesen) wird auf eine Papierbahn aufgedruckt, die anschließend mit Harz beschichtet und auf eine Rolle aufgerollt oder als Bogenware gestapelt wird. Die so vorgefertigte Dekorbahn wird bei dem Fußbodenhersteller auf die Trägerplatte aufgelegt und verpresst. Durch das Aufdrucken des Dekors auf die Papierbahn, das spätere Versiegeln der Papierbahn mit Kunstharz und das anschließende Verbinden der Dekorschicht mit der Trägerplatte durch Druck und Temperatur verändert sich die Papierbahn in ihren Abmessungen. Der Fachmann spricht davon, dass das Papier wächst. Das Papier wächst sowohl in der Länge (Längenwachstum) als auch in der Breite (Breitenwachstum). Wenn diese Dekorplatte nun zu einzelnen Paneelen zugeschnitten werden soll, müssen das Längen- und Breitenwachstum berücksichtigt werden, weil anderenfalls eine ungleiche Dekorverteilung auf den einzelnen Paneelen vorhanden wäre. Diese hätte zur Folge, dass der aus einer ungleich verteilten Dekorschicht zusammengesetzte Fußboden an den Verbindungskanten der Paneele Dekorsprünge aufweist. Selbst wenn solche Dekorsprünge nur wenige Millimeter betragen, fallen sie bei der Betrachtung auf, was den ästhetischen Eindruck negativ beeinflusst und damit die Qualität des ausgelegten Fußbodens mindert.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 desired decor (parquet, wood grain, tiles) is printed on a paper web, which is then coated with resin and rolled up on a roll or stacked as sheets. The thus prepared decorative sheet is placed on the carrier plate and pressed at the floor manufacturer. By printing the decoration on the paper web, the subsequent sealing of the paper web with synthetic resin and the subsequent bonding of the decorative layer to the carrier plate by pressure and temperature, the paper web changes in dimensions. The expert speaks of the paper growing. The paper grows both in length (length growth) and in width (width growth). If this decorative panel is now to be tailored to individual panels, the length and width growth must be taken into account, because otherwise an uneven decor distribution on the individual panels would be present. This would have the consequence that the composite of an unequally distributed decorative layer floor on the connecting edges of the panels has Dekorsprünge. Even if such decorative jumps are only a few millimeters, they are noticeable when viewed, which adversely affects the aesthetic impression and thus reduces the quality of the floor designed.

Um qualitätsgerecht produzieren zu können, muss das Papierwachstum erfasst und die Säge, die die Paneele aus der Trägerplatte zurechtsägt, entsprechend eingestellt werden. Eine manuelle Einstellung ist sehr zeitaufwändig. Die DE 100 19 054 C1 beschreibt ein Verfahren zum Zuschneiden von Paneelen aus einer Trägerplatte, mit dem die Säge automatisch an das Papierwachstum angepasst werden kann. Hierzu sind Kameras notwendig, die die Ist-Lage definierter Dekorpunkte ermitteln. Die Ist-Lage wird dann mit der Soll-Lage verglichen und die Abweichung des Breiten- oder Längenmaßes ermittelt, so dass die Säge entsprechend eingestellt werden kann.In order to be able to produce in a quality-appropriate manner, the paper growth must be recorded and the saw, which saws the panels from the carrier plate, adjusted accordingly. Manual adjustment is very time consuming. The DE 100 19 054 C1 describes a method for cutting panels from a carrier plate, with which the saw can be automatically adapted to the paper growth. This requires cameras that determine the actual position of defined decorative points. The actual position is then compared with the desired position and determines the deviation of the latitude or longitude, so that the saw can be adjusted accordingly.

Um den Zuschnitt zu optimieren muss also ein hoher Aufwand betrieben werden, der die Herstellung hochwertiger Paneele verteuert. Um die Optik des Laminatpaneels der Optik eines Naturholzpaneels weiter anzupassen, kann in der Presse, in der die Dekorschicht mit der Trägerplatte verpresst wird, eine ein Relief aufweisende Matrize vorgesehen sein, die ein der Holzmaserung entsprechendes Relief in die Kunstharzschicht prägt. Da das Papierwachstum nicht reproduzierbar ist, ist es nicht möglich, das Relief vollständig in Übereinstimmung mit dem Dekor zu bringen. Die Fugen eines Fliesenspiegels können, da hier Abweichungen sofort sichtbar wären, nicht in die Oberfläche geprägt werden.In order to optimize the cut so a lot of effort must be operated, which increases the cost of producing high-quality panels. In order to further adapt the optics of the laminate panel to the appearance of a natural wood panel, a die having a relief can be provided in the press in which the decorative layer is pressed with the support panel, which embosses a relief corresponding to the wood grain into the synthetic resin layer. Since the paper growth is not reproducible, it is not possible to bring the relief completely in accordance with the decor. The joints of a tile mirror, as deviations would be immediately visible here, can not be embossed into the surface.

In der DE 195 32 819 A1 wird ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Holzwerkstoffplatte mit einer optisch gestaltbaren Oberfläche offenbart, bei der auf der Holzwerkstoffplatte nacheinander eine Grundierfärbung, eine Versiegelung, eine Druckbasis und ein Dekordruck aufgebracht werden. Die Druckbasis wird dabei aus einer Grundiereinfärbung bzw. einer Grundierung einer Lackversiegelung und einem Oberflächenlack aufgebaut. Mittels Gravurzylindern kann auf die Druckbasis ein Dekordruck beispielsweise in einem Zweifarbendruck aufgedruckt werden. Auf diesen Druck kann abschließend ein mehrschichtiger Acrylat-UV-Lack aufgebracht werden, der mittels UV-Licht härtbar ist.In the DE 195 32 819 A1 discloses a method for producing a wood-based panel with an optically designable surface, in which a primer, a seal, a pressure base and a decor pressure are successively applied to the wood-based panel. The printing base is thereby from a Grundiereinfärbung or a primer of a paint seal and a surface finish built up. By gravure cylinders can be printed on the printing base, a decor pressure, for example in a two-color print. Finally, a multilayer acrylate UV varnish, which is curable by means of UV light, can be applied to this print.

In der DE 199 41 300 A1 wird eine heiß verformbare Pressstoff-Platte mit einem Kern aus Holz und/oder Cellulose-Fasem beschrieben, die mit einem hitzehärtbaren Formaldehydharz imprägniert ist. Auf diese Pressstoff-Platte können beidseitig eine Dekorationsschicht aus einer Kunststoff-, Papier- oder Holzfolie und/oder eine Lackschicht aufgebracht sein. Weiterhin können die Dekorationsschichten auch aus einem vernetzten Acryl-, Urethan-, Epoxid- oder Melaminharz bestehen, die einen Füllstoff oder einen Farbstoff enthalten.In the DE 199 41 300 A1 there is described a hot deformable press plate having a core of wood and / or cellulose fiber impregnated with a thermosetting formaldehyde resin. On this press plate can be applied on both sides of a decorative layer of a plastic, paper or wood foil and / or a lacquer layer. Furthermore, the decorative layers can also consist of a crosslinked acrylic, urethane, epoxy or melamine resin containing a filler or a dye.

Die EP 1 026 008 A2 offenbart ein Overlay, ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Overlays und ein Verfahren zur Herstellung mehrschichtigen Laminates, bei dem auf eine Trägerschicht unterseitig Muster und farbgebende Schichten im Konterdruck aufgebracht werden. Als Trägerschicht kann hierbei ein mit Melaminharz imprägniertes Papier eingesetzt werden, das mit dem Laminat verpresst wird.The EP 1 026 008 A2 discloses an overlay, a method for producing an overlay, and a method for producing a multilayer laminate, in which patterns and coloring layers are applied in counter-pressure to a carrier layer on the underside. The carrier layer used here may be a paper impregnated with melamine resin, which is pressed with the laminate.

Die DE 197 51 115 A1 offenbart ein Verfahren zur Beschichtung beispielsweise eines Paneels, bei dem auf die Oberfläche zumindest eine Farbschicht mittels eines Druckverfahrens, insbesondere mittels Siebdruck, aufgebracht wird. Dabei kann die Oberfläche unbehandelt, geschliffen oder vorbehandelt, insbesondere lackiert, sein. Abschließend kann die aufgebrachte Farbschicht durch eine Beschichtung mit Klarlack abgedeckt sein.The DE 197 51 115 A1 discloses a method for coating, for example, a panel, in which at least one color layer is applied to the surface by means of a printing process, in particular by screen printing. The surface may be untreated, ground or pretreated, in particular painted. Finally, the applied ink layer can be covered by a clearcoat.

Von dieser Problemstellung ausgehend soll ein Verfahren zum Veredeln einer Holzwerkstoffplatte angegeben werden, mit dem die vorstehend beschriebenen Nachteile vermieden werden.Starting from this problem, a method for finishing a wood-based panel is to be specified, with which the disadvantages described above are avoided.

Die Problemlösung erfolgt mit einer gattungsgemäßen Holzfaserplatte durch folgende Schritte.

  1. a) Auftragen einer Versiegelungsschicht aus Melaminharz auf die Oberseite der Platte,
  2. b) Aufdrucken eines Dekors, das hitzebeständige Farben aufweist, vorzugsweise aus hitzebeständigen Farben besteht, auf die Versiegelungsschicht,
  3. c) Auftragen einer Schutzschicht aus Melaminharz auf das Dekor,
  4. d) Verpressen der Platte unter Temperatureinwirkung, bis die Schutzschicht und die Versiegelungsschicht schmelzen und sich unter Einschluss des aufgedruckten Dekors miteinander verbinden.
The problem is solved with a generic wood fiber board by the following steps.
  1. a) applying a sealing layer of melamine resin to the top of the plate,
  2. b) imprinting a decoration which has heat-resistant inks, preferably made of heat-resistant paints, on the sealing layer,
  3. c) applying a protective layer of melamine resin to the decor,
  4. d) pressing the plate under the effect of temperature until the protective layer and the sealing layer melt and connect to each other, including the printed decoration.

Dadurch, dass das Dekor auf die Platte aufgedruckt wird, fällt nicht nur die mit dem Papierwachstum verbundene Problematik fort, sondern auch das Handling, das mit dem Auflegen der Papierbahn auf die Plattenoberseite verbunden ist. Durch das Aufbringen der Versiegelungsschicht auf der Trägerplatte wird verhindert, dass die Druckfarbe von der Trägerplatte aufgesaugt wird, was ohne die Versiegelungsschicht der Fall wäre, da die Trägerplatte als solche saugfähig ist. Durch die Versiegelungsschicht wird die Dekorfarbe an der Oberfläche gehalten und gebunden, so dass die Dekorschicht an der Oberfläche bleibt und ein präzises, klar sichtbares Dekor ausbildet. Die Schutzschicht aus Melaminharz ersetzt das bekannte Overlay, das bei den bekannten Veredelungsverfahren auf das Dekorpapier aufgelegt wird. Durch das anschließende Verpressen unter Temperatureinwirkung, bis die Schutzschicht und die Versiegelungsschicht schmelzen, wird das Dekor eingeschlossen und Versiegelungsschicht und Schutzschicht werden zu einem Verbund. Mit Hilfe der Pressplatte kann der Glanzgrad der Oberfläche eingestellt werden. Wird eine polierte Pressplatte verwendet, wird eine hochglänzende Oberfläche erzielt.The fact that the decor is printed on the plate, not only the problem associated with the paper growth continues, but also the handling, which is connected to the laying of the paper web on the top of the plate. The application of the sealing layer on the carrier plate prevents the ink from being absorbed by the carrier plate, which would be the case without the sealing layer, since the carrier plate as such is absorbent. The sealing layer holds and binds the decorative paint to the surface so that the decorative layer remains on the surface and forms a precise, clearly visible décor. The protective layer of melamine resin replaces the known overlay, which is placed on the decor paper in the known finishing process. By subsequently pressing under temperature until the protective layer and the sealing layer melt, the decoration is enclosed and the sealing layer and protective layer become a composite. With the help of the press plate, the gloss level of the surface can be adjusted. If a polished press plate is used, a high-gloss finish is achieved.

Damit das Dekor bzw. die Farbschicht beim Verpressen nicht schmilzt oder sich farblich verändert, muss eine entsprechend hitzebeständige Farbe bzw. hitzebeständiger Lack verwendet werden.So that the decor or the color layer does not melt during the compression or changes color, a correspondingly heat-resistant paint or heat-resistant lacquer must be used.

Vorzugsweise wird die Platte noch durch folgende Schritte veredelt:

  • e) Auftragen einer Versiegelungsschicht aus Melaminharz auf die Unterseite der Platte,
  • f) Aufbringen einer Farbschicht auf die Versiegelungsschicht,
  • g) Auftragen einer Schutzschicht aus Melaminharz auf die Farbschicht,
  • h) Verpressen der Platte unter Temperatureinwirkung, bis die Schutzschicht und die Versiegelungsschicht schmelzen und sich unter Einschluss der Farbschicht miteinander verbinden.
Preferably, the plate is refined by the following steps:
  • e) applying a sealing layer of melamine resin to the underside of the plate,
  • f) applying a color layer to the sealing layer,
  • g) applying a protective layer of melamine resin to the paint layer,
  • h) pressing the plate under the effect of temperature until the protective layer and the sealing layer melt and combine with the inclusion of the color layer.

Durch diese Schritte wird der sonst übliche Unterzug bei einem Laminatpaneel ersetzt. Die einzelnen Schichtdicken entsprechen denen auf der Oberseite, so dass ein Verzug der Platte ausgeschlossen wird.These steps replace the usual joist in a laminate panel. The individual layer thicknesses correspond to those on the upper side, so that a distortion of the plate is excluded.

Insbesondere vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Oberseite und die Unterseite gleichzeitig veredelt werden, wodurch die Herstellzeit reduziert wird.It is particularly advantageous if the upper side and the lower side are finished at the same time, as a result of which the production time is reduced.

Die Veredelung der Platte kann im Durchlauf erfolgen, wobei vorzugsweise zum Verpressen eine Durchlaufpresse verwendet wird. Hierdurch wird die Herstellzeit weiter verkürzt, was die Produktionskosten senkt.The finishing of the plate can be carried out in a continuous process, wherein preferably a continuous press is used for the pressing. As a result, the production time is further shortened, which reduces production costs.

Die Versiegelungsschichten und/oder die Schutzschichten werden vorzugsweise in mehreren Einzelschichten aufgetragen, wobei jede Einzelschicht vor dem Auftragen der nächsten Schicht austrocknet. Die Einzelschichten haben ein Flächengewicht von jeweils 10-40 g/m2. Die Versiegelungsschicht besteht vorzugsweise aus zwei Einzelschichten; die Schutzschicht aus vier Einzelschichten. Auch die Druckfarbe kann in mehreren Schichten aufgetragen werden.The sealing layers and / or the protective layers are preferably applied in a plurality of individual layers, wherein each individual layer dries out before the application of the next layer. The individual layers have a weight per unit area of 10-40 g / m 2 . The sealing layer preferably consists of two individual layers; the protective layer of four individual layers. The printing ink can also be applied in several layers.

Um eine glatte Oberfläche zu erhalten, wird die Platte vorzugsweise geschliffen, bevor die erste Einzelschicht der Versiegelungsschicht aufgetragen wird. In mindestens eine Einzelschicht der Schutzschicht ist Korund zur Erhöhung der Abriebfestigkeit eingemischt oder eingestreut. Auch können in der Schutzschicht antibakterielle und/oder Antistatik-Additive eingemischt oder aufgestreut werden. Dies kann in derselben oder in einer anderen Einzelschicht erfolgen. Vorzugsweise sind alle Einzelschichten entsprechend behandelt. In die Versiegelungsschicht und/oder die Schutzschicht können Füllstoffe eingebracht werden. Als Füllstoff kommen Holzfasern, Holzstäube, Metalle, Mineralstoffe (Lehm, Sand), Kunststoffe, Zellulose oder Asche in Frage. Über die Füllstoffe kann eine Struktur erzielt werden, die korrespondierend zu dem Dekor aufgebracht wird, so dass filigrane Reliefs erzeugbar sind. In den Einzelschichten auf der Unterseite dienen die Füllstoffe beispielsweise zur Trittschalldämmung.In order to obtain a smooth surface, the plate is preferably ground before the first single layer of the sealing layer is applied. In at least a single layer of the protective layer is admixed or sprinkled corundum to increase the abrasion resistance. Also, antibacterial and / or antistatic additives can be mixed or spread in the protective layer. This can be done in the same or in a different single layer. Preferably, all individual layers are treated accordingly. Fillers can be introduced into the sealing layer and / or the protective layer. Suitable fillers are wood fibers, wood dusts, metals, minerals (loam, sand), plastics, cellulose or ashes. About the fillers, a structure can be achieved, which is applied corresponding to the decor, so that filigree reliefs can be generated. In the individual layers on the bottom, the fillers serve, for example, for impact sound insulation.

Die Veredelung der Oberseite der Platte kann auch nur bereichsweise erfolgen. Vorzugsweise erfolgt die Veredelung auf einer gegenüber der Oberseite schräg verlaufenden Fläche der Platte. Hierzu können mehrere V-Fugen in die Oberseite der Platte eingeprägt werden. Nach dem Veredeln wird die Platte mittig entlang der V-Fugen zersägt, so dass einzelne Paneele entstehen, deren Seitenkanten eine Fase aufweisen. Diese Fasen unterstreichen später die Optik einer Fuge zwischen einzelnen Paneelen eines Fußbodens.The refinement of the top of the plate can also be made only partially. Preferably, the finishing takes place on a surface of the plate running obliquely with respect to the upper side. For this purpose, several V-joints can be embossed in the top of the plate. After refining, the plate is sawn in the middle along the V-joints so that individual panels are created whose side edges have a chamfer. These chamfers later emphasize the appearance of a joint between individual panels of a floor.

Da keine Papierschichten verwendet werden, sind die Platten vor Verzug, der durch die Eigenzugkraft der Papiere entstehen könnte, sicher. Aufgrund der dünnen Schichten können kurze Prozesszeiten realisiert werden. Die in die Einzelschichten auf der Unterseite der Platte eingebrachten Füllstoffe können zur Trittschalldämmung vorgesehen werden.Since no paper layers are used, the plates are safe from distortion, which could be caused by the inherent tensile force of the papers. Due to the thin layers short process times can be realized. The fillers introduced into the individual layers on the underside of the plate can be provided for impact sound insulation.

Anstatt eine Trägerplatte aus HDF oder MDF zu veredeln, können auch OSB-Platten oder herkömmliche Spanplatten mit einer entsprechend fein gestreuten Deckschicht Verwendung finden. Auch ist es denkbar, die Versiegelungsschicht so dick auszubilden, dass Unebenheiten in der Platte (OSB) ausgeglichen werden.Instead of finishing a carrier plate made of HDF or MDF, OSB boards or conventional chipboard with a correspondingly finely scattered cover layer can be used. It is also conceivable to make the sealing layer so thick that unevennesses in the plate (OSB) are compensated.

Die Platten können nicht nur als Fußbodenpaneele Verwendung finden, sondern sie können auch im Möbelbau eingesetzt werden.The panels can not only be used as floor panels, but they can also be used in furniture construction.

Bei einer Holzwerkstoffplatte, insbesondere einem Fußbodenpaneel, bestehend aus einer HDF- oder MDF-Trägerplatte, mit einer Oberseite und einer Unterseite, wobei die Oberseite ein Dekor, vorzugsweise ein Holz- oder Fliesendekor aufweist, wobei auf der Trägerplatte eine Versiegelungsschicht aufgebracht ist, auf die ein Dekor, das hitzebeständige Farben aufweist, vorzugsweise aus hitzebeständigen Farben besteht, aufgedruckt ist und wobei das Dekor mit zumindest einer Schutzschicht abgedeckt ist, besteht die Versiegelungsschicht aus Melamin- oder Harnstoffharz.In a wood-based panel, in particular a floor panel consisting of an HDF or MDF support plate, with a top and a bottom, wherein the top has a decor, preferably a wood or tile decor, wherein on the support plate, a sealing layer is applied to the a decoration which has heat-resistant colors, preferably made of heat-resistant paints, is printed, and wherein the decoration is covered with at least one protective layer, the sealing layer consists of melamine or urea resin.

Durch Aufdrucken einer entsprechenden Dekorschicht können preiswerte Hölzer aufgewertet werden. So kann beispielsweise auf ein Kiefernfurnier ein Eichendekor aufgedruckt und entsprechend farblich hervorgehoben werden.By printing a corresponding decorative layer inexpensive woods can be upgraded. For example, an oak decoration can be printed on a pine veneer and its color highlighted accordingly.

Die Pressplatte kann mit einem zum Dekor korrespondierenden Relief versehen sein. Beim Verpressen der Platte werden dann Vertiefungen in der Schutzschicht erzeugt, die beispielsweise zu einer Holzmaserung oder zu einem Fliesenspiegel korrespondieren. Damit wird die Haptik der Oberfläche an eine natürliche Oberfläche angepasst.The press plate may be provided with a relief corresponding to the decor. When pressing the plate depressions are then produced in the protective layer, which correspond for example to a wood grain or to a tile mirror. This adjusts the feel of the surface to a natural surface.

Vorteilhafterweise ist das Dekor unmittelbar auf der Versiegelungsschicht aufgedruckt. Die Schutzschicht kann beispielsweise eine Lackschicht sein, die vorteilhafter Weise elektronenstrahlgehärtet oder UV-gehärtet ist. Zur Erhöhung der Abriebfestigkeit können auf dem Dekor Strukturmittel oder Korundkörner aufgebracht sein. Die Strukturmittel oder Korundkörner können auch in der Lackschicht eingebettet sein.Advantageously, the decor is printed directly on the sealing layer. The protective layer can be, for example, a lacquer layer which is advantageously electron beam-cured or UV-cured. To increase the abrasion resistance, texturing agents or corundum grains can be applied to the decor. The structuring agents or corundum grains can also be embedded in the lacquer layer.

Die Trägerplatte kann auf der Ober- und/oder Unterseite geglättet, vorteilhafter Weise geschliffen sein.The support plate can be smoothed on the top and / or bottom, advantageously sanded.

Insbesondere können in die Schutzschicht in Längsrichtung und/oder Querrichtung der Platte verlaufende V-Fugen eingeprägt werden. Bei der weiteren Verarbeitung werden dann Paneele aus der Platte ausgesägt, indem mittig entlang der V-Fuge gesägt wird. Dadurch erhalten die Paneele dann eine gefaste Kante.In particular, V-joints running in the protective layer in the longitudinal direction and / or transverse direction of the plate can be embossed. For further processing panels are then sawn out of the panel by sawing centrally along the V-groove. This will give the panels a chamfered edge.
