The Evolution of Stone Fabrication Cutting Technology
Modern stone fabrication cutting saws have revolutionized stone processing, enabling fabricators to achieve millimeter-level precision in granite, marble, and engineered quartz. From bridge saws to CNC-controlled systems, these advanced machines combine cutting-edge engineering with operator safety features to meet the demands of contemporary stone workshops.
Primary Types of Stone fabrication Cutting Machinery
Bridge Saws
- 360° rotating cutting head
- Diamond-coated blades (350-1200mm diameter)
- Automatic tilt functions (0-45°)
Our bridge saw systems feature laser positioning systems achieving ±0.2mm accuracy, making them ideal for countertop fabrication and architectural elements.
CNC Stone Cutters
- 5-axis movement capability
- Automatic tool changers
- 3D pattern recognition
MOSCUT’s CNC stone cutting machines can process 15m² of material per hour with 0.1mm repeatability, perfect for complex geometric designs.
Performance Comparison Table
| Model Type | Cutting Speed | Max Depth | Power Consumption | Material Thickness |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Manual Tile Saw | 2m/min | 50mm | 3kW | ≤30mm |
| Hydraulic Bridge Saw | 5m/min | 120mm | 15kW | ≤100mm |
| CNC Cutter | 12m/min | 200mm | 25kW | ≤150mm |
Advanced Blade Innovations
- Segmented Rim Blades: 40% faster cooling for granite cutting
- Continuous Rim Blades: Mirror-finish cuts on marble
- Turbo Blades: Hybrid design for mixed materials
Our stone processing equipment utilizes laser-welded diamond segments that maintain sharpness 3x longer than conventional sintered blades.
Industrial Safety Systems
Multi-Layer Protection
- Emergency stop with mechanical lock
- Infrared operator detection
- Automatic blade braking (0.2s response)
Spanish Granite Processor Case Study
After implementing MOSCUT’s stone cutting saws, a Barcelona-based company achieved:
- 68% increase in daily production

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between bridge saws and CNC cutters?
Bridge saws are ideal for straight cuts and basic angles, while CNC stone cutting machines handle complex 3D shapes with automated precision. CNC systems offer 5-axis movement and computer-controlled patterns.
Can I cut both granite and marble with the same saw?
Yes, our stone cutting saws support multiple materials, but require different blade types. Use segmented blades for granite and continuous rim blades for marble to optimize results.
How much maintenance do stone saws require?
Daily cleaning and weekly lubrication are essential. We recommend:
- Clean guide rails after each shift
- Check blade tension every 40 operating hours
- Full system inspection quarterly
What power supply is needed for industrial saws?
Most professional stone processing equipment requires:
- 380-480V three-phase power
- 30-60A circuit breakers
- Stabilized voltage (±5%)
