Extraordinary processes in terrazzo production start even during its mining stage. The finest marble is extracted in quarries where only the best quality marble are selected, mined and cut. Once in the factory the chosen “raw materials” are processed with tile presses or cut with the latest 5 Axis CNC Processing Machine. A “5-axis” machine refers to the number of directions in which the cutting tool can move to cut the tile all in one go. On a 5-axis machine, the cutting tool moves across the X, Y and Z linear axes as well as rotates on the A and B axes so that it can cut the material from any direction. More advanced machinery called the CNC Edge Polishers and Saws offer the capability to produce material to exact specifications. Some of the finished products are pre cast in the factory for easy on site fitting.
