Breton ContourFive NC700 - a machine for sculptures


Hello, 
today I show you a beautiful work of ContourFive NC700
A male head machined using the 5-axis machining centre Breton, starting from a block in Bretonstone.
 














Do you like it? I hope so.

Bridge saw Smart-Cut OPTIMA with vacuum cups

Good morning
I’d like to show you a couple of things today:
Here you can see how Smart-Cut OPTIMA lifts and moves a whole slab.





Amazing, isn’t it?

And now see how Smart-Cut OPTIMA performs pocketing and engraving operations.













Not bad at all, what do you think?

New bridge saw Easycut FE 600 EVOLUTION

The new bridge saw Easycut FE 600 EVOLUTION is indeed the evolution of the Easycut FE 600

What does it offer more than the FE 600? 
Let’s see . . .

1 - NEW mobile button panel with 7" colour touch-screen, that can be transferred inside the working area for the alignment of the beam with the cut-tracing laser; the button panel is prearranged to operate using both millimetres and inches.
























2 - Simultaneous movement of the X-Y axes, which are controlled by inverter and en-coder.

3
- Machining of profiles and polygons
3a - Management of polygons
In this mode, it is possible to draw the piece to be realized directly on the machine. In the machining stage, the position of the saw blade will be the origin the profile. 
3b - Management of profiles
In this mode, it is possible to draw the desired profile directly on the machine by entering both the rough-machining and finishing parameters. In the machining stage, the position of the saw blade will be the origin the profile.

4
- Setting of the machine parameters.
5 - Semiautomatic single cut.
6 - 100 different, programmable sequences of longitudinal cuts.
 7 - Automatic rapid and intuitive orthogonal cuts.

8 - It is possible to store up to 100 different sequences of longitudinal cuts
 9 - Possibility of drawing the desired piece directly on the machine,


10- Inverter for the stepless variation of the blade motor rotation speed.

11
- "Profile/Polygon Importer" software to import DXF files through a SD card.


12
- Drawing optoelectronic copier    This accessory allows to sense and acquire a drawing which is then stored by the numerical control and can be used time and again.


What do you think about it?

A bridge saw that makes your work easier.

Nowadays, if you want to outperform your competitors you must adopt simple and innovative solutions, which make your work easier and faster yet ensuring QUALITY and RELIABILITY.

































Breton Smart-Cut OPTIMA with belt table is the ideal bridge saw and 5-axes machining centre specially designed for the fab shop of marble masons.
Breton conceived this bridge saw to give your work the competitive advantage in the marketplace now and long in the future.
As you certainly know, achieving high levels of production versatility and using ground-breaking technologies that are beneficial to operational costs, time and space, means to meet your customers’ needs and, at the same time, solve those everyday problems which are often met when working.

Production cycle
1 - The slab is placed on the belt conveyor that feeds the bridge saw at the same speed of the machine belt. 
2 -A digital camera installed over the infeed conveyor takes a picture of the slab automatically;
a photocell placed at the front of the bench senses the head of the slab thus enabling its correct positioning on the bench.
3 -The digital picture appears on the monitor of the console where the operator may position properly the pieces to be cut (acquiring them from the DXF file) and decide the cutting sequence

4 -  The bridge saw starts the cutting cycle moving the cut pieces through some vacuum cups (arranged all around the disk) in order to optimize the cutting of the subsequent pieces
5 - With Smart-Cut OPTIMA you can either cut routings on the piece back-face where reinforcing rods will be applied to strengthen it (rodding) or make holes with a drill bit in a fully automatic mode.
 6 - Cut pieces and off-cuts are transferred onto the mobile unloading belt at the back of the bridge saw.
7 - Before unloading the semi-finished products, the operator may stick an identifying label printed by the printer mounted on one side of the machine (on request).
