As usual, in this edition of the Stone World Fabricator E-News, we are including two different "Fabricator Case Studies," which serve as example of how different shops operate, what machinery is in place and how their overall production is achieved. This time around, however, there are some pretty big differences from our usual fabricator case studies. First of all, both of these shops aren't in North America, but rather they are in the Chiampo region of Italy.
Secondly, while both shops have much of the same equipment that I find in the North American stoneworking shops -- CNC routers, waterjet cutting equipment, bridge saws, etc. -- the end products aren't just countertops, but architectural stonework for a range of final applications.
