Slate processing machines

With its characteristic schistose texture and its ability to be divided into thin, uniform slabs, slate is widely used in a variety of applications, from roofing to hydrophobic cladding, from chalkboards to billiard tops, and as an elegant cladding solution for both interior and exterior use.

MEC’s slate processing machines greatly improve the efficiency of the process, ensuring precise cuts and minimizing waste while respecting the natural direction of the stone’s edge. This advanced technology also facilitates restoration projects, allowing for accurate processing that maintains the aesthetic integrity of historic buildings.

Some cases of success in the world

MEC has developed a fully automated production line for Hallindens Granit for the production of cubes and other natural stone products. At the heart of the solution is a robotic multi-grip palletizing system capable of handling entire sets of cubes or slabs simultaneously, rather than individual pieces, reducing cycle times and increasing process efficiency. The plant also integrates MEC’s PX, P4 and HALF technologies for flexible and automated production.
