Abstract (en)

The planking element production process produces planking elements (2, 2') with connecting strips (6, 7) from a board (1). A board is separated along an intended break point (11) between two grooves cut into the first and second surfaces of the board. The edges thus obtained are then milled into the final connecting strips.
