bridge cutting machine gantry cutting machine Explanation: While you will find many references to bridge cutting machines (mainly not from English-speaking countries), I think it would be more correct to use the term "gantry". https://www.stonecontact.com/products.../gantry-cutting-mach...

Looking at the pictures, it occurred to me that the supports either side are not really gantry-type and, in at least one case, they are two parallel masonry walls. On the other hand, this (Chinese) website http://www.ninesun-stone.com/processing-machines/yxcm-25-Gan... calls it a gantry and it is, indeed a gantry. So, I would now suggest that it might be a question of seeing a photo or drawing of the equipment concerned to decide whether to use the term "bridge" or "gantry". Then, use "bridge" if it's a beam that bridges a gap between supports on either side of the stone to be cut, where those supports are not trestle type components of the machine and use "gantry" if the supports are trestle-type components of the machine. |
