Breton SmartCut 550 bridge saw works just like a CNC profiling machine!

A bridge saw producing a shower tray as it was a CNC profiling machine was never seen before.

Hi everyone,

At the end of this post there’s something I’d like to show you: I know you haven’t much time and you prefer going to the heart of the matter right away, so no more chatting!
A long time ago, the first bridge saws consisted basically in a diamond disk cutting slabs of natural stone.

And then came the disk inclination,

motorized rotation of the work bench,

cut-tracing laser,

control panel mounted on a swivelling arm,

sliding front guards,
 

touch-screen panel,

milling of round pieces,

video graphics,

slab optimization,

mobile keyboard,

 

milling with 90 degree inclined disk,

twist head with fixed work bench,

strip pick-and-place system with vacuum cups, 

digital camera,

drill bit,

piece handling through the vacuum cups,

rodding, 

drill bit used in the automatic mode.

And what’s new now?

See with your own eyes here below! 

Something unbelievable for a bridge saw.

It is true that the shower tray is made of limestone, but I’ve never seen a bridge saw working just like a profiling machine before. 

This shower tray has been produced by a Breton Smart-Cut 550 bridge saw.
