  • September 15, 2022

Countertops occupy a large proportion of stone products, and are an indispensable and important product for residential and commercial, as well as an important and indispensable product in high-end hotels and guesthouses. Since 16-20mm is the common thickness of large stone slabs, the countertops processed with this thickness of slabs lack of heaviness and three-dimensionality. Therefore, many countertops increase the thickness by strip lamination, so as to achieve better results.

The kitchen countertop below is 20mm, and it is not difficult to see that the three-dimensional effect is very poor, very thin, and the decorative effect is not good; Decorative effect is better for laminated edges. However, the key and core technology of laminated countertop is the bonding seam. If the processing is not good and the level of seamlessness cannot be achieved, the processed countertop is worse than that without laminated, and it is better to make a 20mm countertop. Then, how to produce the seamless laminated countertop

9.After bonding the adhesive strip to the countertop, in order to make the gap between the adhesive strip and the countertop smaller and the adhesive force stronger, clamp the countertop and the adhesive strip with clips, and add a clip every 200mm distance.

10.Do not take away the laminated strip immediately, let it stand for half an hour, and then move and take it away after the glue is completely cured. When the glue is cured, cleaning up the excess glue on the surface before the glue is cured

 

 

11.For the inspection of the laminated countertop, focus on checking the size of the bonding gap, whether the color is consistent with the stone, and whether the glue is discolored.
