What's the production process for artificial Quartz?

Category:Quartz Solution Time:2022-06-08

1. Raw Material Procurement: Quartz stone is composed of approximately 93% quartz, with the remaining 7% consisting of resin, polymers, and pigments. Quartz stone slabs are manufactured using a combination of natural quartz, resin, and pigments. The quartz is sourced from a variety of countries, depending on the specific product requirements. The quartz is then milled and screened to create a consistent size and shape, and a polymer resin is added to create a bonding agent. The pigments are then added to give the quartz its desired color.

2. Mixing: The ingredients for quartz stone slab are mixed in a large mixer or kneader. The mixture is carefully blended and kneaded until it is a consistent mass. The mixture is then poured into a mold and allowed to set until it has reached the desired hardness and consistency.

3. Compaction: The quartz mixture is then placed in a press and compressed at extremely high pressure. This process ensures that the quartz stone slab is completely solid and without any air pockets or voids.

4. Calibrating: The quartz stone slab is then passed through a calibrating machine, which shapes and sizes the slab to the desired specifications.

5. Polishing: Once the slab has been shaped and sized, it is then polished to create a smooth, glossy finish. Depending on the requirements of the quartz stone slab, the polishing process may involve using a variety of abrasive materials and techniques.

6. Inspection: After the polishing process has been completed, the quartz stone slab is then inspected for any imperfections or defects. If any are found, the slab is sent back for re-polishing.

7. Final Inspection and Packaging: After the quartz stone slab has been inspected and approved, it is then packed in a protective box or crate and ready for shipping.

Quartz stone slabs are a beautiful and durable option for a variety of applications, from countertops and flooring to wall cladding and shower enclosures. The production process for quartz stone slabs is complex and involves a variety of steps to ensure that the final product is of the highest quality and consistency.
