Abstract
Abstract A method for continuously producing endless laminates from paper fiber layers consisting of saturating fiber layers with hardenable heat-setting resins followed by drying said saturated fiber layers in a drying tunnel and immediately followed by passing said fiber layers through double-belt press laminating means for curing and further drying to harden said impregnated fiber layers.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
145 words
A method for continuously producing endless laminates from paper fiber layers consisting essentially of the sequence of (a) employing an impregnator means for saturating fiber layers with hardenable heat-setting resins so that 50-70% resins relative to the drypaper weight are absorbed immediately followed by; (b) drying said saturated fiber layers in a drying tunnel by means of highly heated ambient air, infrared or microwave radiations for minimum pre-condensation to reduce moisture content to 10-12% to result in a flexible soft paper fiber and then immediately followed by; (c) passing said fiber layers through double-belt press laminating means for curing and further drying under surface pressure of 100 to 200 Newtons/cm 2 for a sufficient period of time depending on transport speed with said pressure being simultaneously applied over a substantially large area for a pre-determined time interval while applying heat to harden said impregnated fiber.
