Method for producing compatible ends on profile wrapped or laminated lineal Zcomponents requiring consistant or continuous color, and / or mechanical properties on exposed areas

2:

• The process of machining a pocket or pockets into the end or ends of a substrate for the express purpose of filling the pockets with a material that will be exposed after laminating as describe in claim 1.

3:

• The process of manufacturing a filler to fill a pocket as described in claim 1, and claim 2, including applying the filler into the pocket, as described in claim 1, for the purpose of providing a desirable surface material that can be exposed by machining after laminating as described in claim 1

4:

• The process of manufacturing a filler to glue or otherwise adhere between 2 pieces of material to provide a lineal component as described in claim 1, for the purpose of cutting into more than 1 component after the processes of profiling and laminating as described in claim 1.

5:

• The process of drilling or otherwise machining through a lineal component and filling the resultant hole with a filler material as described in claim 1, to provide an end surface or surfaces, that will be compatible with an applied laminate material when the lineal component is cut through at the point that exposes this filler material

6:

• The process of profiling or otherwise machining the lineal component produced in claim 3 or claim 4 or claim 5 or any combination thereof, to prepare it for the process of profile wrapping or otherwise laminating 2 or more faces or surfaces.

7:

• The process of profile wrapping or otherwise laminating a film or other material over 2 or more faces or surfaces of the substrate as produced in claim 6, for the purpose of producing a lineal component that can be machined into 1 or more components with ends that are visually or mechanically compatible, or otherwise useful.

8:

• The process of machining through a laminate material, thus exposing the filler material described in claim 1 and claim 3 and claim 4 and claim 5 or any combination thereof, to produce a useful component in which the selected surfaces will be of a consistent appearance. Machining through the surface material or laminate may also include machining into or through the applied filler material, to comply with, or as required by, the design of the product produced.

9:

• The process of machining through a laminate material, thus exposing the filler material described in claim 1 and claim 3 and claim 4 and claim 5 or any combination thereof, to produce a useful component with an area thus exposed that would have a dissimilar or contrasting appearance as required by the design of the final product. Machining through the surface material or laminate may also include machining into or through the applied filler material, to comply with, or as required by, the design of the product produced.

10:

• The process of machining through a laminate material, thus exposing the filler material described in claim 1 and claim 3 and claim 4 and claim 5 or any combination thereof, to produce a useful component with an exposed surface that has mechanical or chemical properties that are useful or required by the design of the end product, but which would not be possible if the substrate material were exposed by the machining process. Machining through the surface material or laminate may also include machining into or through the applied filler material, to comply with, or as required by, the design of the product produced.
