Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0192861A1] The invention relates to a method and an apparatus (1) for manufacturing brick strips (2) from a curable mortar (3). According to the method said mortar is cast onto a carrier (7) and a visual surface of the said cast mortar is structured, whereby said mortar is cast in at least one form formed by said carrier (7) and a separate brick stencil (9), and said brick stencil (9) is removed before said mortar cures. Preferably a mesh form layer of material (8) is placed on said carrier (7), and/or sheet form material, if desired thermically insulating material, is used as carrier. The apparatus (1) comprises a dosing unit (10) for arranging a curable mortar (3) onto a carrier (7), structuring means (11) located in the manufacturing apparatus (1) downstream of said dosing unit (10), transporting means for moving said carrier (7) relative to said dosing unit (10) and structuring means (11), and whereby a brick stencil (9) is placed on said carrier (7) and forms a form therewith. Preferably a template (9) is in the form of an endless belt. In a preferred embodiment a mesh-form layer of material (8) is arranged upstream of said dosing unit between said carrier (7) and said brick stencil (9), preferably said carrier consists of sheet form material, if desired thermically insulating material.
