Abstract: The present invention is directed to an automated manufacturing line for production of boxlike structures and components therefor from laminated or solid flat material by V grooving, folding and gluing to form the boxlike structure or component. The automated line includes two or more machines selected from lineal V groovers, continuous cross V groovers, edge folding and gluing machines and multiple scoring machines. Each of the machines is provided with fences and feeders for automatically guiding the workpiece through the automated line. The positioning of fences, feeders, cutting heads and applicators of each of the machines is fully adjustable by providing drive means to position the fence, feeder, cutting head and applicator according to a predetermined position required for the production of a particular boxlike structure or component.

Abstract: The present invention provides for an apparatus for forming a V groove in a sheet of natural, synthetic or engineered stone material. The apparatus comprises a table for supporting a work piece of natural, synthetic or engineered stone material to be cut, two or more cutting heads aligned to cut along the same line of the work piece of natural, synthetic or engineered stone material and a mechanism for moving the work piece or the cutting heads relative to one another to cut the V groove in the natural, synthetic or engineered stone work piece. Each of the cutting heads removes material from the natural, synthetic or engineered stone work piece with the final cutting head forming the shape of the desired V groove. Each of the cutting heads is provided with a means for air cooling the cutting surfaces.
