Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of forming a digital embossing (17) on a surface (2) by bonding hard press particles (67) to a carrier (68). A liquid binder pattern (P) is applied on the carrier by a digital drop application head. Hard press particles (67) are applied on the carrier (68) and the binder pattern such that some hard press particles are bonded to the carrier (68) by the liquid pattern and non-bonded press particles (67) are removed. The carrier (68) with the bonded hard press particles (67) is pressed to the surface (2) and an embossing is formed when the carrier (68) with the hard press particles (67) is removed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for forming an embossed structure on a panel comprising: providing a press matrix having hard press particles arranged in a pattern and bonded to a front surface of a carrier, the carrier being a paper or a foil; and pressing the carrier and the hard press particles such that the hard press particles on the front surface of the carrier deform a rear surface of the carrier at a location of the hard press particles to form an embossing structu…
