Abstract: |
The invention relates to the manufacture of cementitious board, such as gypsum board, faced with paper or other sheets and having an improved accuracy of edge profile. A sheet to be folded at the lateral edges of the board is scored, and quick-setting adhesive, preferably a hot melt adhesive, is applied along the lines of folding. The sheet is then folded to the desired configuration and held until the adhesive has set thus establishing an accurate profile that withstands the action of the aqueous slurry of cementitious material and the application of the other sheet. The invention can be applied to various profiles, including square edge, tapered edge, rebated and tongue-and-groove.

First Claim:
Show all 3 claims |
I claim:
1. A method for the manufacture of a planar lined board of cementitious material including the steps of:
- scoring a lower lining sheet at its edge regions along lines where folds are to be made;
- advancing said lower sheet in a generally horizontal plane;
- applying substantially solely to said edge regions of said lower sheet in the parts thereof to be folded at least one line or band of quick-setting adhesive;
- folding the edges of said advancing sheet to provide at least part of the final edge configuration of the board and maintaining said regions in said configuration until fixed therein by setting of said adhesive;
- depositing an aqueous slurry of cementitious material on said advancing sheet;
- covering said slurry with an advancing upper lining sheet;
- and forming the resulting board to required cross-sectional dimensions.
