Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen nach An- spruch 1 gelost, Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen ergeben sich aus den Un- teranspruchen ,The object is achieved by a device with the features according to claim 1. Advantageous refinements result from the subclaims,
Zur Losung der Aufgabe umfasst die Vorrichtung Transportmittel für den Transport von Platten, Die Vorrichtung umfasst eine Zufuhrungsemrich- tung, mit der Beschichtungsmaterial auf die Plattenoberflache gebracht werden kann, Im Anschluss an die Zufuhrungseinrichtung sind oberhalb der Platte Mittel für das Trocknen und / oder Harten des Beschichtungs- materials vorgesehen, Im Unterschied zum eingangs genannten Stand der Technik DE 20 2004 01 8 71 0 U l umfasst die erfindungsgemaße Vor- richtung Mittel, um eine Materialbahn zwischen den Transportmitteln für den Transport von Platten und den Mitteln für das Trocknen und/ oder Harten hindurchfuhren zu können ,To solve the problem, the device comprises transport means for the transport of plates, the device comprises a feed device with which coating material can be brought onto the surface of the plate. Following the feed device, means for drying and / or hardening the material are above the plate Coating material provided. In contrast to the prior art mentioned at the beginning DE 20 2004 01 8 71 0 U l, the device according to the invention comprises means for placing a material web between the means of transport for the transport of plates and the means for drying and / or Hard to be able to drive through
Wird eine Materialbahn mit strukturierter Oberflache eingesetzt, so kann die Oberflache des Beschichtungsmaterials mit einer Struktur versehen werden, ohne großen Druck ausüben zu müssen, Da das Beschichtungsmaterial in diesem Zustand getrocknet und/ oder gehartet wird, gelingt so das Beschichten einer Platte mit strukturierter Oberflache, ohne hierfür wie beim aus der Druckschrift DE 20 2004 01 8 71 0 U l bekannten Stand der Technik entweder eine Presse einsetzen zu müssen oder aber ein aufwendiges Druckwerk. Auch kann eine in mehreren Schritten vorgenommene Beschichtung so in einem Arbeitsschritt einheitlich getrocknet und/ oder gehartet werden, Vor allem ist es so möglich, dass ein chemisches Netzwerk sich durch den gesamten Aufbau der Schicht erstreckt, was zu einer besonders stabilen Beschichtung fuhrt.If a material web with a structured surface is used, the surface of the coating material can be provided with a structure without having to exert great pressure, since the coating material is dried and / or hardened in this state, so it is possible to coat a plate with a structured surface, without this as in the prior art known from the publication DE 20 2004 01 8 71 0 U l, either having to use a press or a complex printing unit. A coating carried out in several steps can also be uniformly dried and / or cured in one work step. Above all, it is possible for a chemical network to extend through the entire structure of the layer, which leads to a particularly stable coating.
Wird eine Mateπalbahn mit glatter Oberflache eingesetzt, so ist so ein Trocknen und / oder Harten unter Luftabschluss möglich, Ein Trocknen und / oder Harten unter Luftabschluss ist vielfach gewünscht, so zum Beispiel um im Fall einer Härtung eines Lacks mit UV-Licht eine besonders große Vernetzung, also einen besonders großen Umsatz an Doppelbindungen innerhalb des Lacks zu erzielen, Im Fall einer Härtung mit Elektronenstrah- len ist ein Luftabschluss in der Regel erforderlich ,If a material web with a smooth surface is used, drying and / or hardening with the exclusion of air is possible Crosslinking, ie to achieve a particularly high turnover of double bonds within the lacquer.

In einer Ausfuhrungsform der Erfindung umfasst die Zufuhrungseinrichtung eine Auffangeinrichtung für das Beschichtungsmaterial, die angrenzend an die Transportmittel für den Transport der Platten angeordnet ist, Die Auffangeinrichtung grenzt des weiteren an eine Walze für den Transport der Materialbahn an, Die Auffangeinrichtung ist so beschaffen, dass flussiges, in der Auffangeinrichtung befindliches Beschichtungsmaterial zur Walze fließt. Es wird so erreicht, dass bei hinreichend großer Befüllung der Auffangeinrichtung flussiges Beschichtungsmaterial vollständig eine Mateπalbahn mit einem Flussigkeitsfilm zu überziehen vermag, wenn eine Materialbahn über die Walze transportiert wird . Insgesamt kann so bei hinreichender Zufuhr von flussigem Beschichtungsmaterial erreicht werden, dass das flussige Beschichtungsmaterial vollständig den Raum zwischen der Oberflache einer Platte und der darüber befindlichen Mateπ- albahn ausfüllt. Es gelangt dann besonders zuverlässig keine Luft in den Bereich . Eine Härtung kann so besonders zuverlässig unter Luftabschluss durchgeführt werden, Auch ist es bei dieser Ausfuhrungsform möglich, relativ dicke Lackschichten mit einer Gesamtdicke von beispielsweise 80 bis 1 00 μm Dicke aufzutragen und einheitlich zu trocknen sowie zu harten, Dies wiederum ermöglicht es, relativ dicke abriebfeste Partikel wie Korund mit einem Durchmesser von bis zu 1 00 μm innerhalb des Lacks einzubetten . Da mit dem Durchmesser der abriebfesten Partikel die Abriebfestigkeit zunimmt, kann so eine relativ hohe Abriebfestigkeit erreicht werden . Mit zunehmenden Durchmesser der abriebfesten Partikel kann zugleich dennoch auch die Menge an Abriebmaterial gesenkt werden, Es gelingt so sowohl eine Verbesserung von Abriebwerten als auch eine Verbesserung der Transparenz der abriebfesten Beschichtung ,In one embodiment of the invention, the feed device comprises a collecting device for the coating material, which is arranged adjacent to the transport means for the transport of the plates. The collecting device also borders on a roller for the transport of the material web. The collecting device is designed in such a way that liquid , Coating material located in the collecting device flows to the roller. It is achieved in this way that, with a sufficiently large filling of the collecting device, liquid coating material can completely coat a material web with a liquid film when a material web is transported over the roller.

Curing can thus be carried out particularly reliably with the exclusion of air, With this embodiment it is also possible to apply relatively thick layers of lacquer with a total thickness of, for example, 80 to 1 00 μm thickness and to dry and harden them uniformly. This in turn enables relatively thick abrasion-resistant particles such as corundum with a diameter of up to 1 00 embed within the paint. Since the abrasion resistance increases with the diameter of the abrasion-resistant particles, a relatively high abrasion resistance can be achieved in this way.

In einer Ausfuhrungsform der Erfindung wird die Materialbahn von einer Walze abgerollt, über weitere Walzen parallel zur Oberflache von Platten gefuhrt, die transportiert werden, und dann wieder von einer Walze auf- gerollt, Im Unterschied zum eingangs genannten Stand der Technik genügt ein Austausch der Materialbahn, wenn eine Oberflachenstruktur verändert werden soll oder aber wenn eine Struktur auf der Materialbahn Beschädigungen beispielsweise aufgrund von Verschleißerscheinungen aufweist, Durch den Einsatz einer Materialbahn kann außerdem eine gleichbleibende Qualität einer erzeugten Oberflachenstruktur sichergestellt werden, da im Unterschied zu einer Walze mit strukturierter Oberflache mit dem Abrollen der Materialbahn die Qualität der Oberflache der Materialbahn nicht verändert wird, die die Struktur erzeugt, Hinzu kommt, dass die Struktur in der Oberflache der Beschichtung praktisch drucklos erzeugt wird, so dass die Oberflache der Materialbahn auch aus diesem Grund praktisch keiner Verschleißerscheinung unterliegt, In einer Ausfuhrungsform der Erfindung sind die Walzen für den Transport einer Materialbahn so angeordnet, dass diese mit der Auffangeinrichtung im Querschnitt einem Trichter gleichen . Die Zufuhrung von Beschich- tungsmateπal zur Oberflache einer Platte erfolgt dann schließlich über einen Spalt. Hierdurch wird die ordnungsgemäße Zufuhr von Beschlch- tungsmateπal zwischen die Materiaibahn und Oberflache der zu beschichtenden Platte weiter verbessert sichergestellt.In one embodiment of the invention, the material web is unrolled from a roller, guided over further rollers parallel to the surface of plates that are transported, and then rolled up again by a roller. In contrast to the prior art mentioned at the beginning, an exchange of the material web is sufficient , if a surface structure is to be changed or if a structure on the material web is damaged, for example due to signs of wear, the use of a material web can also ensure a consistent quality of a surface structure created, because unlike a roller with a structured surface, it rolls off the quality of the surface of the material web that produces the structure is not changed. In addition, the structure in the surface of the coating is produced practically without pressure, so that the surface of the material web is also practical for this reason is not subject to wear, In one embodiment of the invention, the rollers for the transport of a material web are arranged in such a way that they resemble a funnel in cross-section with the collecting device. The coating material is then finally fed to the surface of a plate via a gap. This further ensures the correct supply of coating material between the material web and the surface of the plate to be coated.
In einer Ausfuhrungsform kann die Breite des vorgenannten Spalts veran- dert werden , Dies dient zur Steuerung der Menge an Beschichtungsmate- rial, die zur Oberflache einer Platte gefuhrt wird. Auch kann der Spalt in einer Ausfuhrungsform geschlossen werden, um so den Zeitpunkt der Zufuhrung steuern zu können .In one embodiment, the width of the aforementioned gap can be changed. This serves to control the amount of coating material that is fed to the surface of a plate. In one embodiment, the gap can also be closed in order to be able to control the time of the supply.
Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand der Figur 1 naher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to FIG. 1.
Figur 1 zeigt eine Vorrichtung, mit der ein Tragermaterial 6 , so zum Bei- spiel eine Span -, MDF- oder HDF Platte im Durchlauf beschichtet werden kann . Als Beschichtungsmaterialien werden vorzugsweise UV- oder Elektronenstrahl- vernetzbare, fließfahige Systeme mit geeigneter Viskosität verwendet,FIG. 1 shows a device with which a carrier material 6, for example a chipboard, MDF or HDF board, can be coated in one pass. UV or electron beam crosslinkable, flowable systems with suitable viscosity are preferably used as coating materials,
Eingangseltig der Beschichtungsanlage wird ein Tragermateπal 6 zugeführt und mit einem fließfahigem Material 8 beschichtet, Die Beschich- tung erfolgt über eine Auffangeinrichtung 5, die an eine Walze 4 grenzt. Ein bahnformiges Material und zwar eine für UV- Licht und/ oder Elektronenstrahlung durchlassige sowie strahlungsresistente Folie 3 wird über die Walze 4 gefuhrt, Die Folie weist eine glatte, dem Beschichtungsmaterial 8 zugewandte Oberflache auf, wenn die Beschichtung 8 eine glatte Oberflache aufweisen soll . Die entsprechende Oberflache der Folie 3 ist struk- turiert, wenn die Beschichtung 8 eine strukturierte Oberfläche aufweisen soll ,At the entrance to the coating system, a carrier material 6 is fed and coated with a flowable material 8. The coating is carried out via a collecting device 5, which borders on a roller 4. A sheet-like material, namely a film 3 which is transparent to UV light and / or electron radiation and is radiation-resistant, is guided over the roller 4. The film has a smooth surface facing the coating material 8 if the coating 8 is to have a smooth surface. The corresponding surface of the film 3 is structured turiert, if the coating 8 should have a structured surface,
Das bahnformige Material bzw, die Folie 3 wird von einer Vorratsrolle oder Vorratswalzewalze 1 abgerollt und schließlich auf einer Walze 2 wieder aufgerollt, Zwischen der Walze 1 und der Walze 4 gibt es entlang des Transportwegs für das bahnformige Material 3 drei weitere Walzen mit relativ kleinem Durchmesser, die der Fuhrung des bahnformigen Materials dienen . Die Zufuhrungswalze 1 3 mit dem kleinen Durchmesser, die benachbart zur Walze 4 angeordnet Ist, bewirkt gemeinsam mit der Walze 4, dass das bahnformige Material zusammen mit der Auffangeinrichtung 5 einen im Querschnitt trichterförmigen Einlass für Beschichtungsma- terial 8 bildet. Das Beschichtungsmaterial 8, so zum Beispiel ein Lack, wird über diese Trichterform geeignet zwischen das Tragermaterial 6 und bahnformiges Material 3 gebracht,The web-like material or the film 3 is unwound from a supply roll or supply roll 1 and finally rolled up again on a roll 2. Between the roll 1 and the roll 4 there are three further rolls with a relatively small diameter along the transport path for the sheet-like material 3 , which serve to guide the sheet material. The feed roller 1 3 with the small diameter, which is arranged adjacent to the roller 4, together with the roller 4, causes the web-shaped material together with the collecting device 5 to form an inlet for coating material 8 which is funnel-shaped in cross section. The coating material 8, for example a lacquer, is suitably placed between the carrier material 6 and the web-shaped material 3 via this funnel shape,
Der im Querschnitt trichterförmige Einlass mundet in einen Spalt, Die Spaltbreite kann geändert werden, um die Zufuhr an Beschichtungsmaterial so steuern zu können,The inlet, which is funnel-shaped in cross section, opens into a gap, the gap width can be changed in order to be able to control the supply of coating material in such a way
Zwischen der Walze 4 und der Walze 2 gibt es vier weitere Fuhrungswal- zen mit relativ kleinem Durchmesser, die der Fuhrung des bahnformigen Materials von der Walze 4 zur Walze 2 dienen, Die erste Fuhrungswalze 1 0 - von der Walze 4 in Transportrichtung des bahnformigen Materials ge- sehen - bewirkt zusammen mit der Walze 4, dass das bahnformige Material parallel zur Oberflache des Tragermaterials 6 gefuhrt wird .Between the roller 4 and the roller 2 there are four further guide rollers with a relatively small diameter, which serve to guide the web-shaped material from the roller 4 to the roller 2. The first guide roller 10 - from the roller 4 in the transport direction of the web-shaped material seen - together with the roller 4 causes the web-shaped material to be guided parallel to the surface of the carrier material 6.
Zwischen der Walze 4 und der Walze 1 0 gibt es oberhalb der Folie 3 Einrichtungen 7, mit denen das darunter befindliche Beschichtungsmaterial getrocknet und / oder gehartet werden kann. Es handelt sich vor allem um Einrichtungen für das Harten mit UV-Licht oder Elektronenstrahlen. Mit der Vorrichtung wird wahrend des Beschichtungsvorgangs ein bahn- formiges glattes oder strukturiertes Material 3 zeitgleich von der Vorratsrolle 1 sowohl in Längsrichtung als auch in Querrichtung passend ausgerichtet und synchron zum Tragermaterial 6 mitteis der Walze 4 und der Auffangeinrichtung 5 auf das noch flussige Beschichtungsmaterial appliziert. Ziel der Ausrichtung des bahnformigen Materials ist es, bestimmte Punkte des Tragermaterials 6 mit bestimmten Punkten des bahnformigen Materials passend übereinander zu synchronisieren, Zu diesem Zweck wird in einer Ausfuhrungsform der Erfindung die Geschwindigkeit eines Tragermateπals bzw. einer Platte 6 mit Messeinrichtungen gemessen. Vorzugsweise werden optische Messeinrichtungen eingesetzt, um die Geschwindigkeit des Tragermaterials zu ermitteln. Beispielsweise mit Hilfe von elektronischen oder magnetischen Sensoren wird die Drehgeschwindigkeit von wenigstens einer Walze bzw. Rolle erfasst, die an dem Trans- port des bahnformigen Materials beteiligt ist. Die so gewonnen Informationen über Transportgeschwindigkeit einer jeden Platte 6 und Transportgeschwindigkeit des bahnformigen Materials werden zur Steuerung genutzt, Die beiden Geschwindigkeiten werden also so gesteuert, dass eine Platte definiert mit dem bahnformigen Material zusammengebracht wird, um so eine Oberflache gezielt strukturieren zu können.Between the roller 4 and the roller 10 there are devices 7 above the film 3 with which the coating material located below can be dried and / or cured. These are primarily devices for hardening with UV light or electron beams. During the coating process, the device is used to align a sheet-like smooth or structured material 3 at the same time from the supply roll 1 both in the longitudinal direction and in the transverse direction and to apply it to the still liquid coating material in synchronism with the carrier material 6 by means of the roller 4 and the collecting device 5. The aim of the alignment of the web-shaped material is to synchronize certain points of the carrier material 6 with certain points of the web-shaped material suitably one above the other. For this purpose, the speed of a carrier material or a plate 6 with measuring devices is measured in one embodiment of the invention. Optical measuring devices are preferably used to determine the speed of the carrier material. For example, with the help of electronic or magnetic sensors, the speed of rotation is recorded by at least one roller or roller, which is involved in the transport of the web-shaped material. The information obtained in this way about the transport speed of each plate 6 and the transport speed of the web-like material are used for control. The two speeds are thus controlled so that a plate is brought together with the web-like material in order to be able to structure a surface in a targeted manner.
In einer Ausfuhrungsform der Erfindung weist das bahnformige Material beispielsweise optische Markierungen auf, die mit optischen Sensoren erfasst werden. Der Transport des bahnformigen Materials und / oder der Transport der Platten ό werden so gesteuert, dass eine Platte in Abhängigkeit von einer solchen optischen Markierung beschichtet und die Be- schichtung in Abhängigkeit von diesen optischen Markierungen strukturiert wird.In one embodiment of the invention, the web-shaped material has, for example, optical markings which are detected with optical sensors. The transport of the web-shaped material and / or the transport of the plates ό are controlled in such a way that a plate is coated as a function of such an optical marking and the coating is structured as a function of these optical markings.
Das Tragermaterial mit dem flussigen Beschichtungsmaterial und dem aufliegendem bahnformigen Material durchlauft anschließend die Aushartstation 7. In dieser wird das flussige Beschichtungsmaterial 8 vernetzt und geht in einen festen Zustand über, Dabei wird wahrend des Aushar- tungsvorgαngs die Oberflächenstruktur des bαhnformigen Materials in der ausgeharteten Schicht fixiert und abgebildet,The carrier material with the liquid coating material and the sheet-like material lying thereon then passes through the hardening station 7. In this, the liquid coating material 8 is crosslinked and changes into a solid state. the surface structure of the linear material is fixed and imaged in the hardened layer,
Ausgangseitig der Beschichtungsanlage wird das bahnformige Material von dem ausgehärtetem festen Beschichtungsmaterial abgezogen und wieder zu einer Rolle aufgewickelt.On the exit side of the coating system, the web-like material is drawn off from the hardened solid coating material and wound up again into a roll.
Es ist weiterhin in einer in Figur 2 gezeigten Ausfuhrungsform vorgesehen, dass für das bahnformige Material mehrere Vorratsrollen 1 und Aufwlckel- rollen 2 vorhanden sind. Die Vorratsrollen und die Aufwickelrollen können wahrend der laufenden Produktion durch eine Einrichtung ohne Stopp untereinander endlos verbunden werden ,It is furthermore provided in an embodiment shown in FIG. 2 that a plurality of supply rolls 1 and winding rolls 2 are provided for the web-shaped material. The supply rolls and the take-up rolls can be endlessly connected to one another during production by a device without a stop,
Das Verbinden erfolgt aus Praktikabilitatsgrunden vorzugsweise bei Ge- schwindigkeiten bis maximal 1 20 m/min, Die jeweilige in Ruhestellung befindliche Folienaufnahmestation wird mit einer Rolle des bahnformigen Materials beschickt und die automatische Verbindung vorbereitet, indem ein doppelseitiges Klebeband auf den Bahnanfang aufgeklebt wird , Der Anfang des bahnformigen Materials wird in einen Spalt eingelegt, der dem Verbinden dient, Durch diesen Spalt wird zugleich das bahnformige Material gefuhrt, das aktuell abgerollt wird, Die Auslosung der Verbindung geschieht automatisch durch elektronische Erfassung der Laufmeter der Rolle, von der bahnformiges Material abgerollt wird, oder sensorische Erfassung des zugehörigen Endes eines bahnformigen Materials, Vor dem Verbinden wird das ablaufende bahnformige Material in einer als Bahnspeicher arbeitenden Tanzereinrichtung bevorratet, Die angetriebene Rolle wird auf eine Wechselgeschwindigkeit von ca , 1 5 m/ mm reduziert, Die zur Anlagengeschwindigkeit fehlende Lange des bahnformigen Materials zieht sich aus dem Tanzer heraus, Nach dem Verbindvorgang be- schleunigt die entsprechende Folienrolle wieder bis auf die maximale Geschwindigkeit von beispielsweise 1 20 m/min, bis die Tanzerwalze wieder ihre Arbeitsposition erreicht hat, Die Einrichtung für das automatische Verbinden umfasst wenigstens zwei Abwickeistationen mit Klapplagern und pneumatischen Spannwellen, Der Antrieb der Abwicklungen erfolgt durch je einen Servomotor.
