History<\/h4>\n

Stonemasonry is one of the oldest crafts, dating back to the Stone Age, when humans began crafting tools and weapons from stone. Over the centuries, it has been transformed, leading to the creation of exquisite architectural and art objects.<\/p>\n

Techniques<\/h4>\n

From chipping and grinding to sculpting, stone processing techniques have evolved to meet the diverse needs and tastes of people throughout the ages.<\/p>\n

Modern Technologies<\/h4>\n

Today, modern technologies are opening new horizons in stonemasonry.<\/p>\n

<\/strong>Laser Cutting:<\/strong> This technology allows for exceptional precision and speed in stone processing.<\/h4>\n

Advantages<\/h4>\n
    \n
  1. Precision:<\/strong> Laser cutting enables the production of extremely accurate and detailed patterns and shapes.<\/li>\n
  2. Non-contact:<\/strong> As a non-contact method, laser cutting reduces the risk of damaging the stone.<\/li>\n
  3. Versatility:<\/strong> Lasers can be used for cutting, engraving, and other techniques on various types of stone.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    NC Machines (<\/strong>Surface Grinding Machine):<\/strong> Process automation allows for the production of complex shapes with high accuracy.<\/h4>\n

    \"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Standard Equipment<\/h3>\n

    1. Sharpening device<\/p>\n

    2. Coolant system cleaning<\/p>\n

    3. Set of wear parts and components for 5,000 hours<\/p>\n

    4. Set of assembly and fitting tools<\/p>\n

    5. Electromagnetic chuck with fastening elements<\/p>\n

    6. Static balancing stand for the grinding wheel<\/p>\n

    7. Grinding wheel mounting flange<\/p>\n

    3D Printing:<\/strong> With 3D printing technology, we can create unique stone objects and sculptures, transforming the way we see and use stone.<\/h4>\n

    \"\"<\/strong>LDM 3D printing in the construction of major facilities and landmarks.<\/p>\n

    Specific LDM 3D printers, just like FDM printers, are controlled via g-code\u2014a machine language that works by directing the 3D printer’s print head until the desired 3D model is produced.<\/p>\n
