  • the invention concerns an acoustic absorbing panel with a decorative design pattern comprising a board comprising mineral fibres, said board having two major surfaces and four minor side surfaces.

  • the invention also concerns a method and an apparatus for manufacturing the acoustical absorbing panel.
  • This type of acoustical absorbing panel is known from ceiling panels provided with a painted fleece layer and a decorative design pattern.
  • the decorative design pattern has been provided by applying the paint layer by use of a ro- tating drum having the pattern on its outside surface, whereby this pattern is printed in the paint layer.
  • This technique is relatively difficult to control and results in a paint layer which is not as homogenous as preferred.
  • the technique is also relatively expensive due to waste of paint.
  • minor spots such as a few square millimetres each, may be left without paint, which leaves a pattern on the surface.
  • the quality of this pattern may be less than perfect, as some of the minor spots may be filled with paint anyway and hence not visible.
  • US 6, 675,551 B1 discloses a plate-shaped constructional element comprising a plate made of a solid material and perforated by relatively large holes, whereby a micro-perforated sheet or thin plate is disposed on one of the plate surfaces of said plate-shaped constructional element in order to attenuate vibrations of the air in the micro-perforations.
  • the micro- perforations may form a pattern on the plate-shaped constructional element, this may be an expensive solution.
  • painting of the micro- perforated sheet or thin plate may result in an irregular pattern, as some of the micro-perforations may clog up and consequently not be visible.
  • EP 1 840 287 A2 discloses a sound-absorbing panel comprising a relatively thick layer of porous sound-absorbing base material and a relatively thin porous veneer having pierced apertures formed by laser machining.
  • this panel has the same disadvantages as mentioned above regarding pro- duction costs and possible clogging-up when painted.
  • the fleece layer comprise lasting changes made by a laser beam, wherein the lasting changes have the form of changed colour or tint of the fleece material due to the heating effect by the laser, wherein said lasting changes are in the form of a decorative design pattern, and wherein the layer of paint has a composition and/or a thickness such that said decorative design pattern is visible through said layer of paint.
  • the laser will not add any additional material, such as ink, to the fleece, and hence the ceiling tiles will not be affected with regard to fire properties, environmental impact, (e.g. to the indoor climate), or acoustics (no ink closes off the surface, which otherwise could reduce air permeability of the fleece).
  • any printing technology adding ink is very expensive compared to laser marking, which also requires less maintenance.
  • a further advantage of laser marking according to the invention is that it can easily be implemented in the production line.
  • the lasting changes which are forming said pattern in the fleece layer have the form of dark spots, before the layer of paint is applied to said fleece layer.
  • the decorative design pattern may be better visible through said layer of paint, especially in the case of light or white paint.
  • Dark spots may form better contrast through a light or white coat of paint than would for instance small perforations in the case that it would even be possible to cover such perforations with a layer of paint equal to that covering the material between the perforations, that is, in the case that the perforations would not clog up.
  • the lasting changes which is forming the pattern in the fleece layer is a changed texture, or, it is material removed from the fleece layer.
  • This embodiment may result in a different visual effect than that obtained by a changed colour or tint.

  • the invention is also related to a method of providing a decorative design pattern to the surface of an acoustic absorbing panel, said acoustic absorbing panel comprises a board comprising mineral fibres.
  • This method is comprising a step of: applying a laser heat treatment, by use of a laser beam, to the fleece layer, said laser heat treatment is performed by scanning the laser beam over the fleece layer in a pre-selected pattern resulting in lasting changes in the fleece layer forming the decorative design pattern.
  • the method also comprise a step of securing a fleece layer to at least one surface of the mineral fibre board, either before, during or after said laser heat treatment.
  • the method also comprises a step of applying a layer of paint to said fleece layer after said laser heat treatment of the fleece layer.
  • the method comprises the step of drying said applied paint, thereby forming a painted surface with the visible decorative design pattern.
  • the laser heat treatment is performed after the fleece layer has been attached to the mineral fibre board.
  • the applied paint layer is applied by moving the panel with the attached fleece layer through a curtain coat section, in which the flow of the falling paint in the curtain coat together with the speed of the passing panel defines the thickness of the applied paint layer.
  • the applied paint layer is applied as two separate layers.
  • the invention is also related to an apparatus for manufacturing an acoustical absorbing panel, said acoustic absorbing panel comprising a board compris- ing mineral fibres and a fleece layer, said apparatus comprising: a production line for transporting a mineral fibre board; and the apparatus comprises fleece attachment means for attaching a fleece layer to at least one surface of said mineral fibre board; and the apparatus comprises a laser prepared for scanning a laser beam over the fleece layer in a pre-selected pattern, said laser beam performing a heat treatment in the fleece layer resulting in lasting changes in the fleece layer, thereby forming a pattern of a decorative design pattern; and the apparatus comprises painting means for applying a layer of paint to the fleece layer.

These lasting changes 10 can be in the form of changed colour or tint of the fleece material due to the heating effect by the laser. The change in colour or tint will occur due to partly burn of the glass fibres or of the binder.
  • the lasting change may also be a change in the texture, e.g. due to removal of material of the fleece layer by evaporation of glass fibre and/or binder material from the fleece layer. In some cases material may be removed to an extent such that the fleece layer 3 is perforated.
