The present invention provides an apparatus and a method for aging a stone, preferably an artificial stone. The aging device comprises a rotary support operatively connected to a rotary shaft, at least one abrasive tool mounted to the rotary support for roughing and/or polishing a surface of the artificial stone when the rotary support is brought into functional contact with said surface, and biasing means that biasingly connect the abrasive tool to the rotary support. The biasing means urge the abrasive tool away from the rotary support while allowing the same to move toward the rotary support when the rotary support is brought into functional contact with the surface of the artificial stone, thereby allowing the abrasive tool to follow a surface profile of the artificial stone while roughing and/or polishing its surface.
L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé pour vieillir une pierre, de préférence une pierre artificielle. Ledit dispositif de vieillissement comprend un support rotatif relié de manière fonctionnelle à un arbre rotatif, au moins un outil abrasif monté sur le support rotatif permettant d'ébaucher et/ou de polir une surface de la pierre artificielle, lorsque le support rotatif est mis en contact fonctionnel avec ladite surface, et des moyens de polarisation qui relient l'outil abrasif et le support rotatif. Les moyens de polarisation repoussent l'outil abrasif et le support rotatif, tout en lui permettant de se déplacer vers le support rotatif, lorsque le support rotatif est mis en contact fonctionnel avec la surface de la pierre artificielle, tout en permettant à l'outil abrasif de suivre un profilé de surface de la pierre artificielle tout en ébauchant et/ou en polissant sa surface.
