[0051] The workpiece can be sequentially conveyed by the conveying unit through the deviation rectifying station 101, the processing station 102 and the suction station 103.
[0052] In this embodiment, in order to optimize the structure layout and improve the processing efficiency, the deviation correction station 101, the processing station 102 and the waste suction station are arranged in a ring shape. In other embodiments, the deviation correction station 101, the processing station 102 and the waste suction station can also be arranged in other manners, which can also achieve the effects of this embodiment.
[0053] The position detection unit 200 is arranged above the deviation correction station 101, and is used to detect the position of the workpiece located in the deviation correction station 101 and determine whether the position of the workpiece is deviated.
[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment, the position detection unit 200 includes four cameras 201 arranged in a quadrilateral shape, and the shooting ends of the cameras 201 are arranged towards the deviation correction station 101, and each camera 201 is used to collect the image of one corner of the workpiece.

[0059] In order to ensure the overall processing precision, the processing platform 100, the column 500 and the top plate 600 can be made of natural marble.
