Abstract
The invention relates to a method for structuring a press belt (5) made of metal, which has surface areas having three-dimensional embossed structures (6) to be transferred to decorative panels, and a coating is applied to an outer face of the press belt (5) and the embossed structures (6) are then produced by abrading material from or applying material to uncoated regions of the press belt (5), and the application of the coating is carried out by means of a digitally controlled printing method in which the coating is applied in droplet form, wherein before the press belts (5) are structured, the length and width of the embossed structures (6) are determined, taking into account an anticipated elongation of the press belt (5) in an operative state.
