Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3412421A1] An apparatus (1) for handling and cutting stone slabs, comprising a pair of posts (2, 3) for delimiting a cutting area (4) and slab loading/unloading area (5), a support surface (8) for a slab, moving between the loading/unloading area (5) and the cutting area (4), a longitudinal load-bearing beam (9) slidingly mounted to the posts (2, 3) and moving in a transverse direction (T) and a cutting unit (10) slidingly mounted to the beam (9) over the support surface (8). The support surface (8) comprises a pair of work tables (14, 15) mounted to respective carriages (16, 17) defining each a substantially horizontal plate bearing surface (18, 19), and each carriage (16, 17) moving along guide means (20) secured to the ground between the cutting area (4) and the loading/unloading area (5). Drive means (23) are provided for translating each of the work tables (14, 15) between end positions corresponding to the cutting area (4) and the loading/unloading area (5). Each of the work tables (14, 15) comprises a tilting device (39) hinged to a carriage (16, 17) to pivot between a horizontal position in which it is coplanar with a respective bearing surface (18, 19) and a tilted position in which it is inclined to the respective bearing surface (18, 19) to facilitate loading/unloading of the slabs.
