Margraf's Shapemill 5-axis machining centre by Breton at work on a modillion

Greetings to all,
Today I'd like to show you how Margraf, our long-standing customer from Chiampo (Vicenza), has created a large number of modillions, ornate stone brackets designed to support a cornice or balcony.

Clearly the machine employed for this type of process is the famous 5-axis Breton Shapemill, which is well known to all who follow this blog.
The following few photographs show some of the machining stages required to produce a modillion.

For more information and prices, on the 5-axes stone working center Breton Shapemill, contact mail@breton.it.
We’ll get back to you promptly.
Thank you for the attention and best regards.
Bye-bye

PADO Natural Stone chooses Breton 5 axis

Consolidating its leadership on the Vietnamese market for high prestige natural marble products, PADO Natural Stone has turned to Breton once again in the drive to boost its production output.
A pioneer in technology applied to natural stone since its incorporation in 2006, the Saigon-based Vietnamese company places prestige, class and quality at the very core of its operations. 

Importing meticulously selected stone from Spain, Italy, Turkey, Egypt and Brazil, PADO Natural Stone has consolidated its presence on the Vietnamese market for products of high aesthetic value. 

The company produces exquisitely complex architectural elements and statues and, most notably, refined interiors for hotels, shopping centres and luxury villas: floors, fireplaces, pillars and works in bas-relief.
 
Pride of place in the company's 20,000 m2 production facilities is awarded to the Breton Contourfive NC 700, the machining centre with milling tools, saw blade and 5 interpolated axes that's perfect for complex shaping, contouring, cutting, and turning operations.

Fully satisfied with the results of this investment of several years ago, PADO Natural Stone is now doubling its potential by purchasing a second and even bigger 5 interpolated axes machining centre in the form of the Breton Shapemill 1600, plus a waterjet machine co-manufactured by Waterjet Italia and Breton


With these new investments PADO Natural Stone is preparing for a new contract that calls for complex 5-axis machining of large size parts to be incorporated in a high-profile project in natural marble that will be the only one of its kind in Vietnam and promises to become a point of reference in architecture on the international stage.

We’ll get back to you promptly.
Thank you for the attention and best regards.
