- Cutting trajectory laser tracker.
- Automatic tilting disk between 0° and 90°/
- Inverter motor/spindle.
- 1/2" gas connection for core drill attachment.
- Through-spindle water.
- Slab thickness probe for miter cuts with continuous automatic correction of the cutting measurements.
- Axis C rotation ±190°.
- Fixed camera to take a photo of the whole slab with a single snapshot.
- Pick-up unit with suction cups and optimization software with automatic nesting to optimize slab surface usage depending on work orders.
- Disk diameter electronic contol.
- Tilting table.
