Abstract:
1. A method for producing a group of elongate panels for imitating a long floorboard, wherein the group comprises at least two floorboard end panels, each comprising a first short transverse edge and a second short transverse edge and two longitudinal edges and which form, with the first short transverse edges abutting each other or with the first short transverse edges abutting short transverse edges of at least an elongate intermediate panel, a floorboard having a steadily continuing decor at a transverse edge joint, wherein the floorboard end panels have bevelled longitudinal edges on a decorated side, and wherein the second short transverse edge of each floorboard end panel, on the decorated side, is formed as a bevelled transverse edge, the method comprising the following steps: providing a substantially rectangular board having edges and an upper face comprising a group of elongate panel decors, wherein each elongate panel decor has a decor direction and extends parallel to one of the edges of the substantially rectangular board, and wherein the group of elongate panel decors has a first panel decor portion, which is positioned in a first peripheral region, which extends along one of the edges of the substantially rectangular board and extends transversely to the decor direction of the group of elongate panel decors, wherein the first panel decor portion, for forming a steadily continuing decor, matches a second panel decor portion, located in the first peripheral region and/or in an opposite peripheral region of the group of elongate panel decors, of an elongate panel decor which is offset transversely to a decor direction from the first panel decor portion, dividing the substantially rectangular board into individual panels, each comprising one of the elongate panel decors, profiling the longitudinal and transverse edges of each floorboard end panel, and producing bevels on the longitudinal edges and the second transverse edge on the decorated side of the floorboard end panels.
