Board and method for manufacturing a board

1. A board consisting at least of a substrate is formed from a basic material layer based on a material selected from a group consisting of gypsum, cement and geopolymer;

wherein the board, on at least two opposite edges, is provided with coupling means arranged for coupling two of such boards to each other, said coupling means are configured such that, in a coupled condition, the coupling means provide for a locking according to a direction in a plane of the coupled boards and perpendicular to the coupled edges, and in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the coupled boards;

wherein the coupling means are realized substantially in one piece or entirely in one piece in the basic material layer; and

wherein in a proximity of a front side of the board, on a corner edge between the front side and at least one, of said two opposite edges, a chamfer is present, in a form of a bevel or rounding;

wherein the board comprises a covering or top layer;

wherein the covering or top layer is thinner than 1 mm; and

wherein the chamfer extends deeper than a thickness of the covering or top layer and extends at least into the basic material layer from the covering or top layer from the front side of the board, wherein a surface of the chamfer comprises a separate covering from the covering or top layer on the board.

2. The board according to claim 1 , wherein the board comprises one or more fillers or fibers.

3. The board according to claim 1 , wherein the basic material layer of the substrate is gypsum or cement and has a compressive strength of 30 kg/cm2, and the top layer or covering layer is resin-based and provided on at least one side of the substrate, in a form of a laminate layer directly pressed onto the substrate.

4. The board according to claim 3 , wherein the board has at least one of the following characteristics:

wherein the laminate layer is directly pressed with a pressure of more than 25 kg/cm2;

wherein the basic material layer has a compressive strength of at least 40 kg/cm2;

wherein the basic material layer has a compressive strength of at least 70 kg/cm2;

wherein the basic material layer has a compressive strength in an order of magnitude of 90 kg/cm2 or more.

5. The board according to claim 3 , wherein the laminate layer is directly pressed with a pressure of more than 30 kg/cm2, and that the compressive strength of the board is higher than 30 kg/cm2.

6. The board according to claim 1 , wherein the basic material layer is formed from gypsum or cement.

7. The board according to claim 1 , wherein said covering or top layer is resin-based and a resin bond is continuously present from on the covering up into the basic material layer, wherein the basic material layer is formed from gypsum or cement.

8. The board according to claim 7 , wherein the resin of said resin bond extends at least up to a depth in the basic material layer, wherein said depth is at least 0.5 millimeters.

9. The board according to claim 7 , wherein the substrate, at the side on which the resin-based covering is provided, is free from a cover sheet, such that the resin-based covering is directly present on said basic material layer.

10. The board according to claim 7 , wherein the substrate, at least on a side on which the resin-based covering is provided, comprises a cover sheet, which consists of one or more layers of paper or cardboard or consists of another material, and

wherein the resin-based covering is provided directly or indirectly on the paper or cardboard layer or other cover sheet.

11. The board according to claim 1 , wherein it is provided with a decor layer, whether or not with a pattern.

12. The board according to claim 11 , wherein the pattern is a print directly provided on the board realized by means of a digital printer.

13. The board according to claim 1 , wherein said top layer or covering is resin-based, wherein the resin consists of a thermo-hardening resin.

14. The board according to claim 1 , wherein it is provided with coupling means which allow coupling two of such boards to each other, which are configured such that they, in the coupled condition, provide for a locking according to a direction in a plane of the coupled boards and perpendicular to the coupled edges, and in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the coupled boards; and

that the coupling means are provided with a means or element, more particularly in the form of a material layer or material strip, which provides for a sealing or for a tensioning force, which presses the panels with pretension tension against each other.
