Andre Hagadorn, through his many years as an owner/operator, of his Upstate New York Granite Processing facility, has experienced the benefits of Steinex Splitting equipment. As a Quarrier of multiple surface mines, he has seen what granite can do to splitting equipment, and through his research and hands on knowledge of this type of equipment and stone, he has found a line of guillotines that stand the test of time.

About Steinex, Srl.

Our mission is to listen to our client's specific needs and deliver high performance products through continuous product innovation and operational excellence. We carry complete product lines from the "C" Frame Igloo, to the "H" frame Broadway, Windstar and Menhir. We also carry motorized, pivoting and non pivoting conveyors as well as custom automated production lines.

	IGLOO Cobbles, pavers and wall stones Igloo stone splitting machines are strong, versatile and above all fast. They are outstanding for the speed with which they can produce large quantities of split stone. Today they are used to split all types of stone. Their design makes them perfect to produce a variety of cobbles, pavers and wall stones. Igloo stone splitters maybe smaller than other Steinex machines but they are strong and resilient. They are extremely simple to operate and cope well the constant stresses associated with working hard stone for long periods, even when operating in the toughest conditions. Each Igloo machine is equipped with a low noise hydraulic unit. Technical Information

	BROADWAY Tiles and flat finished It takes a great deal of experience to make tiles from slab type stone. This is why the Broadway machines are designed to split wide and very thin materials, operating more slowly than other machines in the Steinex range. Another notable difference that makes these splitters more suitable for this type of application is the pressure of the lower blade on the stone without the movement of the working table. This greatly improves split quality and reduces waste. These machines are designed to split all types of stones and are particularly suitable for the production of slab paving, split tiles and flat finished products. With their long blade large pieces of stone can be worked with precision. Each machine is equipped with a low noise hydraulic unit. Technical Information

	WIND STAR Machines for automatic CNC systems Wind Star is the CNC splitting machinery widely used in automatic splitting lines for both concrete and natural stone. The Wind Star can work material of any type or dimension. For sawn or manufactured blocks the machine is equipped with four blades to ensure a perfect split each time on all fours sides of the block. Wind Star technology is cutting edge on high production automatic lines and can be incorporated into lines with robotic feeding and palletizing of finished products. Technical Information

	MENHIR Curbstones and semi-finished products The Menhir machines are our most powerful machines , splitting very large stones with great accuracy. During the splitting sequence the loading platform lowers on a fixed blade enabling greater accuracy in splitting the largest and hardest stones. Menhir is a high power, high accuracy designed solution. Machinery in the Menhir range is mainly used to produce curbing, walling stone and as primary splitters in cobblestone and building veneer production lines. Sherpa conveyors are the ideal solution for the loading and unloading of material for splitting machines, a solution essential for maintaining a continuous and efficient production cycle. The Sherpas come as steel track, slatted, roller or belt conveyors with forward and reverse drives to match any customer requirement. Most models come with options such as high or low hopper sideboards and double benches if required. Each machine is equipped with a highly efficient low noise hydraulic and power unit Technical Information
