Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1435283A2] The present invention relates to a method of and an apparatus for producing natural rock-imitating ceramic products. The method of producing a natural-stone-imitating ceramic product includes steps of using a hopper for delivering raw ceramic material onto a spreader, using the spreader to spread the raw ceramic material onto a surface of virgin ceramic material located in a pressing position of a pressing machine, pressing the raw ceramic material into the virgin ceramic material using the pressing machine, and sintering the pressed virgin ceramic material and finally processing the sintered virgin ceramic material. The apparatus for producing the natural-stone-imitating ceramic product includes a hopper, a spreader, and a pressing machine provided with an upper punch and a lower punch. <IMAGE>
