Abstract (en)

A machine (1) for grinding the edges of plates (L) of glass, marble, and stone materials in general comprises a first machine unit (3) for simultaneously grinding two opposite edges of a plate (L) to be machined set horizontally whilst the aforesaid plate is advanced in a first direction (A). The machine also comprises a second machine unit (5) set downstream of the first unit (3) to advance the plate in a second direction (B) orthogonal to the first direction (A) and machine the remaining edges. The machine (1) is provided with at least one drilling/milling unit (20) for carrying out drilling and/or milling operations on the plates (L). The drilling/milling unit (20) is associated to a transfer unit (4, 6) of the plates, which is interposed between (4) the first machine unit (3) and the second machine unit (5), or alternatively set immediately downstream (6) of the second machine unit (5).
