A robot on the bauma stand of Italian company 7270 Penta Automazioni Industriali has been demonstrating the precision laying of paving blocks.

Penta’s custom-made handling technology enables a robot to read the size of each block, pick up individual pieces and position them to make up a panel. The panels can then be installed on site.

Penta also specialises in the ageing of blocks to achieve the desired appearance.
