Various embodiments for a median barrier finishing machine are described. A median barrier finishing machine may include a housing configured to encapsulate at least a portion of a median barrier, where the housing comprises a first vertical wall, a second vertical wall, and a horizontal wall. The median barrier finishing machine may include at least one adjustable member configured to couple the housing to the vehicle and retain the housing a predetermined distance relative to the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion. Further, the median barrier finishing machine may include at least one finishing device disposed within the housing, where the at least one finishing device is configured to contact a surface of a median barrier at least partially positioned within the housing and treat the surface as the vehicle moves the housing along a length of the median barrier.

A method and machine for the surface decoration of a basic article comprising ceramic material and having a surface and a printing assembly applies an adhesive material digitally and selectively onto a defined area of the surface. A treatment assembly deposits a powder material digitally and selectively in the defined area, and the powder material in excess arranged on the basic article is removed.

In one example, a solver engine may execute a reverse calculation to determine a recipe ingredient set based on a goal descriptor describing a ceramic glaze. A descriptor interface of the solver engine may receive a goal descriptor describing a ceramic glaze. A model applicator of the solver engine may apply a glaze process model to the goal descriptor. The model applicator may automatically reverse calculate a glaze recipe describing a recipe ingredient set to produce the ceramic glaze described by the goal descriptor. A glaze mixing machine interface may direct a glaze mixing machine to mix the recipe ingredient set to produce the ceramic glaze.

According to the present disclosure, methods and techniques for generating preferred concrete block products are provided. The methods and techniques involve providing addition of color to selected section within the blocks, as described herein, to generate enhancement effects. Typical applications involve spray applications for color pigment to visually distinct sections of the block on one or more decorative surfaces.

A dispensing device for granular or powdered materials, comprising: a main body; a dispensing channel, arranged at least partially in the main body and provided with a longitudinal axis, an inlet opening and an outlet opening; a suction means, provided to retain, upon command, at least a part of granular or powdered material inside the dispensing channel, so as to form an accumulation that obstructs the dispensing channel and prevents the flow of material; at least one suction opening, placed in communication with the dispensing channel and with the suction means; a filter, interposed between the suction opening and the dispensing channel; a ventilation portion, associated with the main body and connected to the inlet opening, which is provided with an outer surface placed in communication with an environment at a determined pressure.

Provided are cementitious panels that include a cementitious core material and a plurality of sheets of facing material surrounding the cementitious core material, in which at least one of the plurality of sheets of facing material includes a polymeric-film. The polymeric film may include a thermoplastic composition that has a polymeric matrix including one or more polymeric materials. Additionally, the thermoplastic composition may optionally include a filler material. Additionally, provided are methods of manufacturing such cementitious panels.

A system and method for providing a non-corrosive surface. In some embodiments, the system includes a concrete surface, a metal substrate coupled to the concrete surface, and a non-corrosive coating applied to the metal substrate. The non-corrosive coating includes a chemically inert polymer comprising EPDM rubber and an additive.
