An insulated panel 1 comprising a profiled external skin 2, an internal tray 3 and a foam core 4 is formed in a substantially continuous manner by a method which comprises automatically cutting the backing tray and part of the core using a circular saw 20 and subsequently automatically cutting the remainder of the foam core through to the external skin by using guillotine blades 25. The saw 20 and blades 25 are mounted on a carriage 14 which moves on tracks 12, 13, 15, 16 to align the saw 20 and blades 25 in cutting alignment as the panel 1 advances. <IMAGE> |
