The Tiger Stone Machine developed by in the Netherlands by machinery specialist vanku b.v. is a automatic brick paving layer. The machine is available in in 4,5 and 6 meter widths and the operators are able to lay almost 1000 square meters per day. It was developed to be more Ergonomic for the operators allowing them to be able to stand with comfort whilst placing the bricks into the machine without needing to bend and kneel in uncomfortable positions. It was also developed to have a higher productivity, whilst still achieving very high standards. The machine certainly appears that it will be able to transform residential street development especially as the developers would like to see it being produced for smaller functions in the future for rental purposes. But with its retracted size its hard to see it as a primary tool for large urban developments, but defiantly as a time and money saver for certain roles.
