A unique machine in the ceramics industry universe

High level of reliability and versatility

Lapping machine for lapping or polishing ceramic tiles and slabs by means of the superficial abrasive action imparted by brushing heads.
The robust load bearing structure specifically designed for this type of application, combined with the many settings that can be selected directly from the touch-screen, make Breton Kappa K a highly versatile and reliable machine, able to deliver top results in all conditions.
Breton Kappa K is equipped with 6-shoe brushing heads and available in the single or double independent swinging beam versions, with settable swing speed and acceleration.
Finally, the possibility of optimising the satellite head paths with the Tango movement makes the machine unique in the ceramics industry universe.

Technical views

Technological highlights

  • The Breton Kappa K spindles have 15 kW motors able to guarantee the required power delivery at all times, even in the most difficult situations. Also, thanks to the new styling with ABS housings, accessing mechanical parts and performing cleaning and maintenance (preventive and unscheduled) is easy and quick.

    15 kW polishing spindles

  • Thanks to its structural solidity, Kappa K stands out for its precision of movements and minimal vibration levels.
    The stiffness of the beam and the lightweight alloy spindles make it possible to create steeper acceleration ramps, less mechanical stress, and reduced power consumption.
    All this translates into a highly reliable machine and a finished product of impeccable quality.

    Structural robustness: a synonym of quality

  • All the machine parameters can be set up and managed from a user-friendly interface:
    - spindle rotation speed
    - swing speed and related acceleration and deceleration ramps of single beams
    - conveyor belt feed speed
    - working pressure
    The software also allows all the working recipes to be saved and used in accordance with the materials, thus benefiting shorter machine set-up times.

    Software for total control

  • Breton Kappa K can be equipped with the patented Tango spindles movement system. Thanks to this innovative technology, the spindle path can be optimised and customised based on the beam swing speed, compensating for acceleration and deceleration ramps. All of this translates into enhanced uniformity of the surface finish.
