What are the disadvantages of rock slabs?
The application of rock slabs is very wide, usually with wash basin countertops, kitchen countertops, dining tables, etc. However, while affirming the superior performance of rock slabs, it is also necessary to face the pain points of rock slabs directly. While seeing the advantages of rock slabs, we must also acknowledge its shortcomings and optimize it as much as possible.

1: The pattern fidelity is worse than natural marble, the texture is low, the pattern is dull, lacks the texture and aura of marble, it looks like this at first glance, but it is difficult to have the charm and romantic style of natural marble when you look at it. It is okay for those who do not understand stone.

2: Fish and dragon mixed with beads, less real rock slabs, more fake rock slabs
3: The luminosity is lower than that of natural marble and lacks the brilliance of natural marble. Just as the luminosity of artificial stone is very low when it comes out, super clean and bright technology is used to increase the luminosity to reach the luminosity of natural stone. Rock slabs should also follow this approach. Improve the luminosity of the rock slab. Otherwise, the slate light is inferior to natural marble in terms of luminosity.

4: Cracking, because the rock slab is processed under high pressure and high temperature, huge stress is stored in the rock slab, once under the action of external force, the stress may be released, resulting in sudden cracking of the rock slab or burst. This triggering factor may be the external force during processing, or the external force during use, even the slight external force caused by the change of weather, thermal expansion and contraction, may cause the rock slab to crack.
5: The processing range of rock slab is limited, and the application range is subject to certain restrictions
Compared with natural marble, the processing range of rock slab products is much smaller, which limits the use and application of rock slabs to a certain extent.
6: The rock slab is deformed, which affects the accuracy of production, processing and construction
The deformation of the rock slab is also a pain point that the rock slab cannot be bypassed or avoided. The deformation of the rock slab not only affects the quality during production and processing, but also
Will affect the quality of construction.
No wonder the installation master sighed, the leveling of the rock slab is really difficult when installing it! In addition to the impact of the installation base surface, the leveling of the rock slab installation is also due to the excessively large processing size of the rock slab. A little deformation of the rock slab has a great impact on the far place, which will affect the accuracy of the installation. And quality.
The large flexibility of the rock slab brings great inconvenience to product handling. When horizontally transporting large-length rock slab products, the deformation not only affects the product handling, but also easily causes the product to break.
7: The rock slab cannot be polished and cannot be repaired after damage
What natural marble processors most scorn for the rock slab is that the surface of the rock slab cannot be polished, and it cannot be repaired after it is broken.
8: The rock slab is brittle and easy to break through external force
The brittleness of rock slabs is closely related to the manufacturing process of rock slabs. It is not easy to solve it unless the rock slab manufacturing process is greatly changed and innovated.
9: The hardness of the rock slab is high, which increases the difficulty of secondary processing
The hardness of the rock slab is high, reaching 7 or even higher on the Mohs hardness level, which has exceeded the hardness of granite and is close to the hardness of gems. Such high hardness brings great trouble to the processing of the product.
When cutting the board, you must use a special rock cutting saw blade, and the sharpness of the saw blade is always maintained during the cutting process, otherwise the surface of the cut rock slab product will collapse, showing jagged edges, serious bottom collapse, and even possible The edges and corners are broken, which seriously affects the quality of the product, and may even cause the product to be scrapped. Due to the high hardness of the rock slab back cutting, there are two large and small heads in and out of the knife.
