(54) Mold for pressing ceramic tiles


(57) A mold for pressing ceramic tiles, intended to cope with the waste of time and higher costs that occur when the mold is to be replaced in the press in order to produce tiles having a format and/or contour that is different from the one for which it was built, wherein each mold part is divided into two components: the framework (1, 16) for coupling to the press and the active element (2), which can be interchanged in the framework without disassembling the mold, which is provided with at least one impression divided by means of an interchangeable diaphragm (9, 10) or an integrated diaphragm (10a) or is otherwise surrounded also by strips (4, 30, 31); the mold is used in the ceramic industry to produce tiles, particularly tiles having variable formats and/or contours.
