USG Robotics RoboCut in action at Akropolis Marble and Granite Imports of Colmar, PA
Founded in 1996, Akropolis Marble and Granite Imports of Colmar, PA, opened a new facility in July of 2008. One of the company's latest investments has been a RoboCut twin-table robotic saw/waterjet combination from USG Robotics of Crystal Lake, IL, which revolutionized the company's production. The RoboCut utilizes a pump and cutting nozzle from KMT Waterjet Systems of Baxter Springs, KS, and it also includes USG Robotics' Vein-Match system. This program allows workers and customers to see the design of a kitchen on PC and see how the pieces will line up according to the veining of the material.
