Method And Production System For The Manufacture Of Artificial Aglomerate Material Slabs

A method for manufacturing a slab of artificial agglomerate material comprising the following steps:

• a) dispensing a first layer of a first mixture onto a first surface the first mixture comprising 85-95 wt % of a first particulate material and 5-15 wt % of a first binder material, the first layer having a first thickness h;
• b) creating at least one groove in the first layer extending at least partially through the first thickness h of the first layer, the at least one groove comprising one first groove region,
• c) dispensing a second mixture comprising 85-95 wt % of a second particulate material and 5-15 wt % of a second binder material into the first groove region;
• and wherein
• d) dispensing into the first groove region a third mixture comprising 85-95 wt % of a third particulate material and 5-15 wt % of a third binder material;
• and
• e) compacting and hardening the combination of first, second and third mixtures,
• wherein the first mixture, the second mixture, and the third mixture being all different mixtures.
