Section 3: Detailed Manufacturing Process of White and Gold Ceramic Dinner Plates
- Raw Material Preparation: Premium kaolin, feldspar, and quartz are dry-mixed and purified. Particle size is controlled at <40μm to ensure smooth, crack-free firing.
- Forming (CNC-Assisted Molding): Automatic CNC-controlled pressing or slip casting creates precise plate geometry. Uniform thickness achieved within ±0.15mm tolerance (see ISO 13006).
- Bisque Firing: Unfinished plates are subjected to 900°C for 12h (removes free water, hardens body).
- Glazing & Decoration: Food-safe, lead/cadmium-free glazes are sprayed, followed by hand painting of gold rims/pattern with real gold powder or eco-friendly compounds.
- Glost Firing: High-temperature firing at 1330°C solidifies glaze and gold. Firing curve is digitally recorded for QA (see ASTM F2451).
- Quality Control: Every batch tested for thermal shock (ISO 28706), leach resistance (FDA/SGS), and colorfastness (EN 1388-1:2020).
- Branding & Assembly: Logo decal or custom engraving, set packing under dust-free conditions. Final visual/dimension inspection.
Manufacturing Flowchart with Key Stages
- Arrows: indicate major process transitions (raw material → press forming → firing → glazing → gold application → QC→ packing).
- Red Nodes: CNC forming and glost firing (critical for shape and glaze adhesion).
- Green Nodes: Gold painting and QA (food safety check, ISO/FDA test points).
Section 4: Technical Advantages & Real-World Application Scenarios
- Superior Material Integrity: High-fired porcelain (ISO 13006) resists warping, cracking, and thermal expansion. Mohs 7 glaze withstands cutlery abrasion.
- Gold Rim Technology: Utilizes FDA-compliant, lead-free gold compounds fired at >1200°C for permanent luster and non-toxicity.
-
Application Versatility:
- Hotels/Catering: Uniform color/shape, batch size up to 15,000 units/month.
- Restaurant/Fine Dining: Custom logo, plate sizing (8–11.5 inches), gold accenting matches table theme.
