Method for producing a same pattern using a simple print and device thereof

摘要

A method for producing a pattern, in particular a wood pattern, on the face of a woodbased-material board. The pattern is preset with the aid of a digital data set and applied to the woodbased-material board via an intaglio printing process. The pattern is covered with at least one synthetic resin layer and pressed with the woodbased-material board. The digital data set is used to produce a sample print by use of an inkjet printing process, which print is used to compare with the pattern print on the woodbased-material board in terms of optical appearance. The materials and/or printing conditions used in the pattern printing and the sample printing are coordinated with one another.

主权项

1. A device for printing, coating and pressing two different base materials with a same pattern, which is covered with a synthetic resin and subsequently pressed therewith, wherein the device comprises a first printing line and a second printing line, a pattern is applied to a first base material as a sample print using an inkjet printer in the first printing line and a same pattern is applied to a second base material using an intaglio printing device in the second printing line, and a test unit provided on an exit side with an optical scan element and a comparison unit compares the printing results of the first and second printing line with respect to optical appearance.
