Use of machines and performance gains in marble making
June 14, 2024
The implementation of automated machines in a marble factory's processes is a decisive factor in achieving high levels of efficiency and quality. In this article, we will explore how the use of machines such as the Edge Polisher, the CNC Bridge Saw and the 45° Cutting Saw can transform a marble factory in terms of reducing costs, increasing delivery capacity and standardizing quality.
Cost Reduction
Automation in a marble factory, through the use of advanced machines, allows for a significant reduction in operating costs. Automated machines minimize material waste due to the precision of cuts and finishes. For example, the CNC Bridge Saw makes exact cuts, reducing waste of marble and granite and, consequently, reducing raw material costs. Furthermore, automation reduces dependence on intensive labor, which means less spending on salaries and labor charges. Another machine that contributes to cost reduction is the 45° Cutting Saw, which efficiently makes cuts at precise angles. This equipment reduces the time needed for adjustments and corrections, common in manual methods, leading to a more economical and agile operation.
Greater Delivery Competence
With the introduction of automated machines, marble factories can significantly increase their production capacity. The Edge Polisher, for example, is essential for finishing edges, providing high quality polishing in a reduced time. This machine allows marble factories to fulfill large orders within shorter deadlines, as it can operate continuously and with minimal human intervention.
The CNC Bridge Saw, with its ability to operate uninterruptedly, also contributes to increasing production capacity. It makes complex, precise cuts at a steady pace, without the need for frequent stops for adjustments. This increase in productivity allows marble factories to accept more orders and deliver projects in less time, improving their competitiveness in the market.
Quality Standardization
Quality standardization is one of the biggest benefits of automation. By using an Edge Polisher, the quality of edge polishing is uniform, regardless of the operator. This ensures that all products come out with the same level of finish, raising the quality standard of the marble factory.
The 45° Cutting Saw also contributes to the standardization of cuts. With its millimeter precision, it ensures that all cuts are made exactly according to the project, eliminating variations that can occur with manual methods. The consistency of results strengthens the marble company's reputation as a supplier of high quality products.
Practical Examples of Use
Let's consider a practical example. A marble factory that adopts the CNC Bridge Saw for the production of kitchen countertops can precisely define the cutting times for each piece, adjusting its production according to demand. The use of the Edge Polisher ensures that all edges are polished with the same excellence, while the 45° Cutting Saw allows precise cuts at angles, perfect for sophisticated finishes.
Investing in automation is not just about improving processes; it's about inspiring the best version of each marble worker. The REXFORT campaign, which uses the climbing metaphor, perfectly illustrates this journey. Just as a climber needs precision, strength and innovation to conquer new peaks, marble workers, equipped with advanced machines like those from REXFORT, are prepared to overcome challenges and reach new levels of excellence and success. REXFORT machines are designed to be reliable and efficient, allowing marble workers to turn their vision into reality, just like a climber reaches the top of a mountain.
Conclusion
The transition to the use of automated machines in marble factory is a strategic step that brings numerous benefits. Cost reduction, increased delivery capacity and quality standardization are just some of the gains that can be achieved. REXFORT, with its technological solutions, offers marble workers essential tools to increase the efficiency and competitiveness of their businesses. Taking inspiration from the climber's campaign, REXFORT not only provides equipment, but also motivates marble workers to explore their best version, overcoming challenges and building a lasting legacy of quality and innovation. Investing in equipment such as the Edge Polisher, the CNC Bridge Saw and the 45° Cutting Saw is investing in the future, ensuring not only survival, but sustainable growth and market leadership.
