The document outlines the 7-step manufacturing process for ceramic tiles: 1) Preparing raw materials like clay and feldspar. 2) Batching involves proportioning raw materials by mass for accuracy. 3) Mixing and grinding reduces raw materials to a uniform size. 4) Spray drying converts the body slip to granules suitable for pressing. 5) Pressing simultaneously compacts and shapes the granules in rigid dies. 6) Drying increases strength before firing and prevents warping in the kiln. 7) Firing at high temperatures transforms the shaped granules into durable ceramic tiles.

4. Batching Process Of Ceramic Tiles
Batching or proportioning
may be done by volume
or by mass. However,
proportioni ng by mass is
far more accurate than
that by volume.

5. Mixing And Grinding Process Of Ceramic Tiles
The grinding of solid raw
materials involves a whole
series of operations aimed
at reducing the size of
materials.

6. Spray Drying Process Of Ceramic Tiles
Spray drying is the
process that converts the
body slip obtained from
the mill to a granulate with
a size distribution and
moisture content suitable
for pressing.

7. Pressing Process Of Ceramic Tiles
Pressing is the
simultaneous compaction
and shaping of a powder
or granular material
confined in a rigid die or
flexible mould.

8. Drying Process Of Ceramic Tiles
This is carried out to
increase the strength of
the unfired tile and also to
reduce the risk of tile loss
due to deformation as the
tile rapidly shrinks or
cracks as the steam is
rapidly evolved in the kiln.

9. Firing Process Of Ceramic Tiles
Firing is usually the final
stage in the ceramic tile
manufacturing, at which
the weak, unfired, newly
pressed piece of tile is
transformed into a strong,
durable product due to the
effect of chemical and
physical reactions within
the green body during
heating.
