US 2024/0326290 A1 · MACHINE AND PLANT FOR MACHINING SLABS

Abstract

Machine (1) for machining slabs (L) made of stone, stone-like, agglomerate or ceramic material, comprising a pair of fixed support structures (12) intended to delimit a working area (A), a horizontal surface (8) for supporting the slabs (L) being machined, which is positioned within the working area (A), a fixed horizontal beam (14) supported by the fixed support structures (12) and a horizontal beam (18) movable with respect to the fixed horizontal beam (14) and comprising at least one spindle (20) slidably mounted on the movable horizontal beam (18) and designed for the mounting of at least one machining tool (22). Also provided are means (32) for moving the movable horizontal beam (18) with respect to the fixed horizontal beam (14) along a predetermined direction of advancing movement (Z) lying in a plane parallel to the support surface (8) and means (34) for rotation of the movable beam (18) with respect to the fixed beam (14) about a fixed rotation axis (R) arranged vertically. The invention also relates to a plant (100) for machining the slabs.
