Patent number: 11731311Abstract: A process for the realization of slabs of ceramic and/or stone material, including the following phases of: supplying at least one base material of the ceramic and/or stone type in the form of powder and/or granules and/or flakes; supplying at least one additional material of the ceramic and/or stone type in the form of powder and/or granules and/or flakes, different from the base material; delivering the base material onto a supporting surface to obtain a slab to be compacted having an initial thickness; pressing the slab to be compacted to obtain a compacted slab having a final thickness. Following the delivery and before the pressing, the following phases of: suctioning a portion of the base material to obtain at least one through groove which crosses the initial thickness along a determined path; and applying the additional material inside the groove.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2019Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: SITI B&T GROUP S.p.A.Inventor: Fabio Tarozzi
