In general:
- For the DecoRing® 215 there is no more reason for existence as the limitation to the cutting of just one extruded brick slip per pass is out of date. Because the circular conveyor cannot hold two bricks next to each other, we will abandon this chain system.
- Modern electronic technologies have caught up the sawing units incorporated so far in the DecoLine® and DecoRing® machines. So we will introduce a completely newly developed very modern sawing unit.
- Roboting will become part of this machine as the operator should concentrate on packing the brick slips and be supported at the loading side of the machine. Also the disposal of debris will go automatically.
- Finally, its price needs to come down and this will become successful due to the aimed measurements.
