Case study
An Ankara furniture maker watched a VICHOR waterjet at work in Qatar — then ordered one with a tilting table for stone
Zebrano Mobilya Teknolojileri A.Ş. · Elmadağ, Ankara, Turkey · Installed November 2025
Customer background
From its base in Elmadağ, Ankara, Zebrano Mobilya Teknolojileri A.Ş. designs, manufactures and sells furniture and takes on projects for its clients. That work uses a lot of stone components, and Zebrano wanted to cut them in its own factory.
What the buyer was worried about
When Zebrano first contacted us, it already had a proposal for a high-end machine from another brand, with a 3 × 2 m table. Zebrano wasn't looking for just a price. It wanted a comparison that showed where the machines really differed: table size, cutting head, and how large slabs would be loaded and unloaded. And with the machine shipping from China, it wanted to see a VICHOR machine running in a real production shop before deciding.
Why VICHOR
The day after Zebrano sent us that proposal, we sent back a revised quotation built to the same specification, with a model-by-model comparison so every difference was easy to see.
Over the next few weeks we worked through the configuration together, moving from a 3 × 2 m table to a 4 × 2 m tilting table with a 5-axis cutting head: more cutting area, and large slabs can be loaded and unloaded while the table is tilted.
What settled it was a visit to a long-standing VICHOR customer's factory in Qatar. Zebrano's team watched the machine in production and talked face to face with the customer about running it every day. After that visit, Zebrano placed its order with confidence.
Machine and configuration
WCM-P60IV-T4020P-A5CIII-NC100
- WCM-P60IV intensifier pump: 60,000 psi, with US-made intensifier core components covered by a 5-year warranty
- WCM-T4020P tilting table: 4 × 2 m, with Z-axis travel increased to 250 mm for this order to handle thick stone
- A5CIII 5-axis cutting head
- NC100 CNC system
Installation
When the machine arrived in Ankara, a VICHOR engineer went on site to install and commission it and train Zebrano's operators. It was handed over in early November 2025.
What this case shows
- You can see one at work before you buy. VICHOR machines are in production with long-standing customers in several countries, and with their permission we can arrange a visit or a conversation.
- Bring us another supplier's proposal. We'll match it item by item to the same specification and show you exactly where the configurations differ before you decide.
- In Turkey, a VICHOR engineer has installed and commissioned a machine on site.
