Laser projection systems in the stone industry
The stone industry has a particularly wide range of applications for SL Laser’s projection systems. In this highly competitive industry, optimized precision and increased production efficiency are welcome. The reduction in time-consuming set-up times is a significant benefit. The application runs from the first measurement to the cutting and processing of the orders – from the same panel. The specially developed programs for our products enable 3D measurements, accept CAD data, convert it and specify all work steps in series or in parallel.
Advantages for the stone industry
Clear advantages: CNC centers achieve shorter set-up times and faster throughputs with reduced scrap.
During nesting, different jobs are cut quickly from the same panel, templates are replaced by projection.
The calculation simplifies the positioning and processing of heavy panels without physical displacement.
The LaserPilot software enables parallel work steps and is compatible with most CAD programs.
Suitable products for the stone industry
Laser light projector ProDirector 7
The ProDirector 7 projects under the ceiling, the next work steps or entire construction plans from the 2D CAD or 3D CAD system onto the workpieces. Can be used for distances from the laser to the application of up to 6 m.
Positioning laser
SL positioning lasers align tools and workpieces with maximum precision. Robustly built, versatile, and available as line, cross, or circle lasers—ideal for industry and trade.
Mobile Workstation
The mobile workstation brings the laser directly to the component. Height-adjustable, flexible in use, and available with battery operation for maximum mobility.
Typical areas of application for our lasers in stone processing
Laser projection saves costs and increases quality. This applies to work in CNC machining centers, when measuring stairs or walls and even when laying stone inlays. No company wants to miss out on these benefits once it has tested SL Laser products. In the CNC machining center, the throughputs are significantly faster with drastically reduced waste. You save working time and material when cutting and processing stone slabs without displacement. The ProCollector L is also used in mobile applications, e.g. for measuring and projecting data in wall or stair construction.
