Title: Method and machine for manufacturing a plate-like material made from agglomerated particles and in particular ceramic products obtained thereby

Abstract: A method of making plate material consisting of agglomerated clay-based particles, comprising providing a liquid particle suspension such as slip within a gap left between two continuously travelling confronting electrodes at a given voltage applied thereto, subjecting the suspension to an electrophoretic action between said electrodes and an adjacent counter-electrode subjected to a different voltage and controlling the formation and thickness of the electrophoretic deposits on said first electrodes so that when they leave the electrophoretic field they will be fused together with their outer surfaces having contacted each other and recovering said plate formed continuously from both layers of electrophoretic deposits.
