ARTIFICIAL STONE SLAB COMPRISING VEINS AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing an artificial stone slab with veins comprises preparing a moldable hardenable fluid mixture of a first material (11); pouring said mixture into a mold (20) an upper face being exposed; engraving the exposed upper face with a predefined precise pattern of grooves (30) coinciding with a pattern of thin veins to be obtained; impregnating at least the inner faces (31) of said grooves (30) with a moldable hardenable fluid mixture of a second material (12), the color of both materials being different causing the collapse and closure of the grooves, a visible pattern of thin veins of a second material with a natural look being left behind; curing the artificial stone slab by subjecting it to vibration, compression and vacuum until the fluid mixtures of the first material and of the second material are hardened.
