Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9618009A1] Floor or wall tiles (3) are known in which spacers are formed in one piece with the tiles during manufacture. According to the invention, a production facility for fitting tiles (3) with spacers on an industrial scale is provided with: at least one continuous conveyor system for transporting tiles (3) between different functional devices; an application device (6) for applying spacer material to the tiles (3); a kiln (9) for fusing the spacer material onto the tiles (3); and a cooling area (11, 12) where the spacer material can harden and the tiles can cool. The proposed method and device can be used for laying tiles in a flat tile lattice structure using a jolting or vibration process.
