Technology & Innovation

Advanced engineering, continuous research and international patents dedicated to natural stone.

Our Approach

The technology as language

In MAEMA, technology is not merely a tool: it is the core of everything we design. Every machine is the result of a rigorous research process carried out in-house by our engineers, transforming our customers' real needs into original, patented mechanical solutions.

We do not simply build machines. We develop innovative industrial processes capable of redefining quality standards in the surface finishing of marble, granite, natural stone and concrete.

Research & Development

Our engineering department is constantly engaged in R&D activities: every year, we invest significant resources in new research, laboratory testing, and functional prototypes before bringing any innovation into production.

Custom Engineering

Every system is designed around the specific needs of each customer: material format, production volumes, and the desired finish. No solution is standard; everything is engineered to meet specific requirements.

Patents & Intellectual Property

Our most innovative solutions are protected by Italian, European and international patents. Intellectual property is a strategic asset for us: it safeguards the value of our research and provides our customers with exclusive technology.

How we work

From concept to machine

The MAEMA development cycle always starts with an analysis of the customer’s production process. Our engineers study the material to be processed, operating conditions and quality objectives, and then define the most effective technological solution.

The design process is carried out entirely in-house, using state-of-the-art software and kinematic and structural simulations before the physical prototype is built.

Only after thorough testing does the machine enter production. This approach allows us to guarantee reliability, precision and long service life for every system.

Our Processes

Advanced finishing processes

Over the years, MAEMA has developed proprietary technologies for the main surface finishing processes, applicable to marble, granite, and more generally to all natural stones and concrete elements.

Our technology delivers the highest-quality finishes — flaming, bush-hammering, sandblasting, brushing and waterjet — with optimized production cycles and reduced waste.

  • Controlled high-temperature flaming
  • Automated multi-head bush-hammering
  • Sandblasting with Dust Aspiration
  • Brushing with long-life patented tools
  • High-pressure waterjet
  • Multi-process combined systems
