Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of processing or wood finishing of materials or components made from the ecological and renewable raw material wood.
- One area of application of the invention is, for example, the gluing and coating of wood, where the use of the invention leads to higher strengths and durability.
- the general area of application is all branches of industry that deal in any way with wood and wood processing and processing. In addition to conventional woodworking and processing industries, the restoration of components, building and works of art etc. made of wood or with a wood surface, for example by removing damaged wood surface layers or parts thereof, is also counted.
- the durability of protective coatings on wooden surfaces and the strength of adhesive bonds between wooden parts can be significantly increased if the coating material or the adhesive can penetrate deeper into the wooden surface. This is prevented in the case of mechanically processed wood surfaces by a layer of destroyed wood structure, which mainly consists of compressed wood fibers. There was therefore a need to remove this layer with destroyed wood structure.
- this method is inconceivable, for example, for the restoration of components, buildings and works of art made of wood or with a wooden surface.
- the invention is based on the object of proposing a method for modifying, for example machining, in particular for removing or removing layers of wood surfaces, by means of which the disadvantages of the prior art are eliminated.
- Claims 2 to 20 represent advantageous embodiments.
- the process for modifying wooden surfaces, in particular for removing layers of wood on the wooden surface is carried out using high-energy electromagnetic radiation.
- this modification of wooden surfaces takes place through thermal absorption.
- a powerful energy source preferably a laser source (e.g. C0 2 -cw laser), with which high-energy electromagnetic radiation is generated, focused and directed onto the surface of the wood surface, so that during a short exposure time, preferably ⁇ 1 ms , the wooden surface is suddenly heated so strongly in a thin layer that the essential part of the volume thus heated is also evaporated suddenly or converted into plasma.
- the partial active surface of the energy source on the wooden surface which is small compared to the processing surface, is continuously guided over this or the desired segments or contours thereof.
- a laser ablation process is used to remove the layer on the wood surface, for example the layer with a destroyed wood structure.
- a thermal process is carried out in the method according to the invention.
- the removal is carried out by thermal absorption via the excitation of phonons in the different wood molecules and subsequent thermal removal process.
- the coupling of the radiation in particular of laser radiation, causes the surface to heat up rapidly, which mainly leads to partially explosive evaporation with plasma formation.
- Prerequisites for a removal free of damage to the remaining wood surface are short ones Exposure times to this radiation, which prevents a deep thermal effect with disadvantageous phenomena, such as partial melting and especially charring.
- Such short exposure times can be achieved either by a rapid relative movement between the laser beam and the workpiece and / or by using lasers with short pulses.
- the rapid relative movement can be achieved by rapid movement of the wood under a laser beam, for example a cw laser beam, or by a rapid movement of the laser beam, for example a cw laser beam, over the wooden surface or by a combined movement.
- the lasers used should preferably work in the infrared spectral range, since there is a high optical absorption of the wood and the absorbed laser radiation is largely converted into thermal energy, which is used for evaporation.
- the laser radiation can be focused or unfocused depending on the respective application.
- the removal according to the invention is brought about by a thermal process (heating, evaporation).
- Preferred lasers are therefore C0 2 lasers (cw lasers), which can also work continuously (not pulsed), since the method according to the invention opens up the possibility of realizing the short exposure times required and thus also in continuous operation by means of rapid relative movements work without damage in continuous operation.
- the method according to the invention thus enables the use of C0 2 -cw lasers which are available with a high average power, are considerably cheaper to operate and can be easily integrated into a mechanical woodworking machine. This significantly improves the process described in patent application WO 95/25621 and enables the process to be used economically in the wood industry.
- the variant of the method according to the invention shown in this exemplary embodiment is outlined in FIG. 1.
- the focused beam of a C0 2 -cw laser 1 is guided by means of a scanner mirror 2 so quickly perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the board over the wooden surface of a board 3 to be processed that the short exposure times arise.
- the laser beam is focused by a focusing mirror 4 in such a way that the power densities required for removal are achieved over the entire width of the board.
- the board feed 5 takes place at such a speed that removal by multiple scanning with the laser beam with track overlap takes place, which frees the wooden surface of residues of the mechanical processing.
