AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing mechanical locking systems for building panels, particularly floorboards, result in significant material waste during manufacturing due to the projection of parts like tongues and strips, leading to increased costs and reduced locking strength.
Method used
A locking system integrated with the core that guides edges into position during angling, minimizing material waste by using one-piece components and optimized groove formations, allowing for high locking strength and efficient production.
Benefits of technology
The solution reduces material waste by up to 5 mm in laminate floors, enhances locking strength, and simplifies the manufacturing process while maintaining precise edge alignment.
