The Extrusion Method 
The chipped, dried and glued particles fall through a channel under the ram between the heating plates. (1)

The excentric ram compresses the particles and continuously pushes the board downwards. (2)

The density of the board is defined by the sliding friction in the press channel. The glued particles harden under pressure and heat. The continuous stream of board exits the presses vertically, is led to the crosscut saws by sliding bars, cut to the required fixed size and stacked. After having acclimatised for several days the SAUERLAND board is ready for dispatch.
