In contemporary design, exquisite stone mosaic or simple, or luxury, or exquisite, can always arouse people’s admiration, play the finishing point in the space, can skillfully use the mosaic to express the design idea in the design works, is an advanced design technique. In this issue, we will talk about the stone water jet mosaic in depth.

1. Material selection
Before talking about the process, let’s talk about the material selection before processing. The material selection is particularly important for the presentation of the final effect. Designers and customers should pay attention to these three points when selecting materials
a. Color:
In the whole mosaic pattern, the same stone layout color must be consistent, but for some large color differences, there is a large color difference on the same board, so it is necessary to distinguish and plan the material selection. The basic principles of material selection are: first, the principle of gradual color transition; second, the principle of not affecting the aesthetic decorative effect of mosaic.

b. Pattern:
In the process of stone mosaic, the change of the grain on the board surface is also very important. Especially for high quality, demanding and artistic high-end products, the best texture changes should be combined with the design, to better show the effect of the design.

For a circular mosaic, the pattern can be around the circumference or along the radius, but whether it is around the circumference or along the radius, the consistency of the pattern should be ensured. For the square pattern, the pattern generally extends along the length direction, radiates along the width direction, or changes along the length and width direction at the same time.

c. Defects:
Such as color lines, color spots, cracks, holes, sand holes, mildew, from the quality of the mosaic, these stone defects are not allowed. However, because the stone is naturally generated, there are more or less certain defects, so we need to consider the problem comprehensively when selecting and using materials. What can be avoided should be avoided as far as possible, and what cannot be avoided depends on the specific situation. And these appearance defects should be repaired as far as possible. However, the scope of defects allowed can not affect the overall decorative effect of the mosaic.

2. Drawing conversion
After confirming that the color drawing is consistent with the customer, the design department will send the color drawing and CAD line drawing to the computer drawing room for computer production.
1. Computer graphics include:
a. Sublayer (sub-layer is to separate materials of different colors)

b. Typesetting (arranging the scattered parts regularly according to the actual material size)
c. Processing, compiling, auditing

d. There are many details in the six parts, such as the compensation of the water jet, connecting the parts, saving the “DXF” file format, etc. after the computer drawing is completed, it is handed over to the factory for the water jet cutting process. 3. Processing
2. Processing
a. Water jet cutting out parts

b. Manual Collage

c. Blending and toning
d. The surface has been polished

● Quality acceptance standard
1. In the same mosaic pattern, the same stone color texture should be consistent, without obvious color difference, color spot, color line defects, and there should be no Yin and Yang color.
2. There is no crack, damage, or notch on the board surface.
3. The error of peripheral dimension, gap, and pattern splicing is less than 1 mm.
4. The flatness error is less than 1 mm and there is no gap.
5. The surface gloss shall not be less than 80 degrees.
6. The color of the paste used for bonding the gap or for stone mending shall be the same as that of the stone.
7. The diagonal and parallel lines should be straight and parallel, the arc angle should not move, and the sharp angle should not be blunt.
8. The packaging must be smooth to prevent scratches and stand vertically to make it bear longitudinal force.
