Processing Technology and Equipment for Irregular Stone Arc Slabs

Historical Review of Irregular Stone Development

In the early stages of irregular stone processing in China, two production bases started relatively early: Huian and Yunfu. Huian stone carving has now become famous both domestically and internationally. The exquisite stone carving is not only a simple stone product but also an art piece under the craftsman culture. Yunfu, on the other hand, is more inclined to commercial stone art crafts, which are more suitable for home and engineering decoration. In the early days, irregular stones were mostly produced manually, with low output, high cost, and significant quality differences among different companies, mostly used in government projects such as companies, temples, and gardens.

Entering the 1990s, machinery began to impact the stone industry, and many stone machinery companies have made it their slogan to create a new era of mechanical processing. Mechanization has greatly improved the production efficiency of irregular stones, increased production speed, reduced production costs, and begun to be widely used in engineering decoration, entering ordinary people's homes. Irregular stones have also shifted from the earliest carving to large-scale irregular decorative stones—cylinders, lines, railings, and so on.

Differences Between Two Irregular Stone Producers

As two of the earliest production bases to come into contact with irregular stones, why has one base gradually become large and comprehensive, while the other tends to be small and refined? In addition to the market demand potential that everyone can see on the surface, the deeper reason is actually the difference in the mechanical equipment used by the two, and the adoption of different production processes for irregular arc slabs.

Arc Slab Processing Technology Process

  1. Arc Slab Cutting: Use advanced cutting technology for preliminary arc slab cutting.

  2. Multi-head Arc Slab Machine Polishing: Use multi-head arc slab machines for polishing to improve efficiency.

  3. Four-blade Arc Slab Trimming Machine Trimming: Use a four-blade arc slab trimming machine for trimming to ensure precision.

  4. Pillar Base and Cap Modeling: Carry out the design of the pillar base and cap.

  5. Roman Column Grooving: Use automated equipment for the grooving process of the Roman column.

Management Differences Leading to Cost Differences

In addition to the differences in equipment, the production management adopts a contracting system, which makes the labor cost of processing arc slabs lower than the traditional employment system. Workers are responsible for working hours and consumables, and the salary is calculated based on how much money is produced per square meter of finished product. The contracting system allows manufacturers to clearly calculate processing costs and also allows workers to continuously explore and find more cost-effective consumables to save costs and improve efficiency.

In the end, the price of terminal cylindrical arc slabs is far lower than the market price. Under the same stone conditions, manufacturers can sell at a price much lower than the market processing cost, and the product quality is higher than the market average level. When encountering large projects and large orders, due to more and more advanced processing equipment, they can supply in an extremely short delivery period, and the competitive strength is very strong.
