Ball Mill
Recreating antique styles nowadays
By placing tiles and stones inside a drum and rotating it, this machine polishes the surface and naturally rounds their corners. Thanks to the ball mill, we can achieve a genuine aged appearance, similar to that of stone weathered over hundreds of years.
Characteristics of Ball Mill
The ball mill is known for its capability to quickly age hard materials. It turns tiles or stone inside a drum, creating natural, weathered effects such as rounded edges and a worn surface texture. This makes it particularly ideal for interior and exterior designs that aim for an antique look.
Aging process
The aging process with a ball mill is a technique that gives new tiles an antique look. In just a few hours, it can recreate the weathered look that would normally take centuries to achieve.
This is the result after giving the glazed tile the right amount of wear.
The sharp corners, which were only cut, have been polished to create a natural roundness.
