The marble and granite cutting process presents itself as a harmonious fusion between artisanal precision and cutting-edge technology. In this article, we will explore the machines behind this process, revealing the secrets of working with marble and granite.
What are the machines that cut marble and granite
Marble, with its timeless elegance, requires a highly specialized cutting process to transform raw blocks into architectural works of art. The machines used in this process are cutting edge, combining precision and power. We will now find out which machines guide the cutting of marble.
Wire machines
Wire machines for marble and granite, also called Multiwire or Monowire, are the spearhead in marble and granite processing. These machines work thanks to one or more diamond wires, powered by a powerful motor, which are able to cut blocks of marble and granite into slabs with extreme precision
Honing/levigating machines and Polishers
After the initial cut, the marble and granite pass through noning-levigating machines and polishers. These machines, often equipped with abrasives or diamond tools that smooth and polish the surface of marble and granite, eliminating any imperfections and leaving a smooth, shiny finish.
Bridge saws
The used bridge saw is an important machine for every marble worker's laboratory. It is mainly used for cutting and transforming large slabs into customized products. The most advanced models are the numerically controlled cutters also called CNC bridge saws which allow you to cut and shape marble, granite, synthetic stone and ceramic materials in automatic or manual mode and to perform complex three-dimensional machining.
Edge polishers
Edge polishers for marble and granite are used for the production and processing of steps, window sills, floors and all processes where it is necessary to shape, smooth and polish the edges. They are edge polishers for both the straight edge and the bullnose , both with belt (vertical and horizontal) and single head.
Conclusion
The machines that guide the cutting of marble are the beating heart of this process, they are capable of transforming massive blocks into architectural masterpieces. The beauty and precision that emerges from these machines are testimony to how technology, when used well, can raise the art of marble processing to extraordinary levels.
