Processing Solutions

A practical guide to matching materials, processing operations and equipment. Every production route should be confirmed against your actual samples.

01

Stone Cutting Solution

Customer requirement

For fabricators turning granite, marble or other approved slabs into sized parts, countertops, steps and architectural components. The brief should identify the largest slab, common thicknesses, straight or mitred cuts, shaped work, visible-edge expectations and realistic product mix.

Material

Granite, marble and other natural or engineered stone confirmed through material review and, where appropriate, sample cutting.

Typical products

Countertop blanks, vanity tops, steps, wall or floor components, window sills and drawing-defined fabricated pieces.

Machine configuration

A bridge saw is the normal starting point; CNC machining, waterjet or edge-polishing equipment can be added where the finished parts require those operations. Axis layout, blade, table, controls and handling must be confirmed from actual drawings and samples.

Production advantages

A process-led selection avoids paying for unrelated functions and makes interfaces between loading, cutting and finishing visible before installation. It also creates a practical basis for sample acceptance and operator planning.

Processing workflow

  1. Review slab data, drawings and material handling constraints.
  2. Plan nesting, support and the cutting sequence.
  3. Cut and transfer parts to any shaping or edge-finishing operation.
  4. Inspect dimensions and visible edges against agreed criteria.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a bridge saw enough for every stone workshop?

No. It covers many sizing operations, but openings, complex contours and finished edges may require CNC, waterjet or separate polishing. Confirm the mix from your products.

What should be sent for a recommendation?

Send slab dimensions, materials, thickness range, part drawings, edge requirements, output mix and workshop constraints. A representative sample supports technical confirmation.

02

Quartz Countertop Processing Solution

Customer requirement

For workshops producing kitchen worktops, vanity tops and related quartz parts with straight cuts, openings, contours and specified edge profiles. Planning begins with drawings, slab and part sizes, thicknesses, edge catalogue, cut-out geometry and the balance between standard and custom work.

Material

Engineered quartz and other countertop materials only after their composition, thickness, tooling guidance and sample response are confirmed.

Typical products

Kitchen countertops, islands, vanity tops, backsplashes, sink cut-outs, cooktop cut-outs and matching edge components.

Machine configuration

Possible equipment includes a bridge saw for sizing, CNC or waterjet for openings and contours, and dedicated edge polishing for repeated profiles. The recommended combination must follow the actual drawings, workload, outsourcing plan and sample finish.

Production advantages

Separating high-volume straight work from complex machining can improve scheduling flexibility. A defined drawing-to-inspection route also helps control revisions, tooling choices and transfer damage. These are planning benefits, not guaranteed output claims.

Processing workflow

  1. Approve drawings and nest parts on the slab.
  2. Dimension-cut blanks and prepare required contours or openings.
  3. Profile and polish exposed edges with suitable tooling.
  4. Clean and inspect dimensions, cut-outs and finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need both CNC and waterjet equipment?

Not automatically. The choice depends on cut geometry, edge condition, material and which operations you intend to outsource. Review representative drawings first.

How is the edge-polishing configuration chosen?

Provide material, thickness, profile sections and finish references. The head arrangement, tools and sequence should then be confirmed with samples.

03

Sintered Stone Processing Solution

Customer requirement

For processors cutting large-format sintered panels into countertops, furniture faces, wall elements and other finished surfaces. Specify the exact panel reference, size, thickness, backing, supplier instructions, cut-outs, mitres, visible edges and handling limitations.

Material

Sintered stone and porcelain surface panels evaluated by brand or technical data, thickness, backing and representative sample.

Typical products

Countertops, islands, cabinet or furniture panels, wall finishes, table surfaces and dimensioned architectural pieces.

Machine configuration

A suitable bridge-type cutting system may be paired with beveling or edge-processing equipment and careful material handling. Blade, support, tooling, feed strategy and transfer arrangements require confirmation from the actual panel and finished-part requirements.

Production advantages

Treating support, cutting and offloading as one route helps identify handling risks early. Defined samples and inspection points create a clearer conversation between the panel supplier, machinery team and factory operator.

Processing workflow

  1. Check material guidance, drawings and panel condition.
  2. Support and position the panel for the planned cuts.
  3. Complete edge or bevel operations with the approved tools and sequence.
  4. Inspect for dimensions, edge condition and visible defects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can one setting be used for every sintered panel?

No. Formulations, thicknesses and backing vary. Follow the material supplier’s guidance and confirm the process on representative samples.

When is a 45-degree edge operation needed?

It is relevant to designs using mitred assemblies or specified edge details. Supply section drawings so the equipment and finishing route can be assessed.

04

Ceramic Tile Processing Solution

Customer requirement

For factories converting standard ceramic or porcelain tiles into strips, skirting, stair pieces, bevelled edges and made-to-size components. Define input tile, glaze or surface, thickness, output sizes, edge design, sorting standard and product mix.

Material

Ceramic tile and porcelain tile, confirmed for density, surface, thickness and behavior with the proposed tooling.

Typical products

Tile strips, skirting, stair and wall details, bevelled or bullnose components, borders and drawing-defined pieces.

Machine configuration

A line may combine single- or multi-blade cutting with beveling, profiling and edge polishing. The number and sequence of stages should be selected from actual input sizes, output mix, edge reference, samples and the available workshop layout.

Production advantages

Planning the transfer between stages helps reduce avoidable handling and mixing of finished sizes. A product-based tooling plan also makes changeovers, consumables and inspection responsibilities easier to define.

Processing workflow

  1. Sort input tiles and confirm dimensions and surface orientation.
  2. Size or strip-cut with appropriate support and tooling.
  3. Bevel, profile or polish edges as required.
  4. Clean, sort and inspect finished components.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is porcelain processed the same way as ordinary ceramic tile?

Not always. Density, glaze and thickness affect tools and settings. Provide the exact tiles and confirm the process through samples.

What information is needed for a skirting line?

State input tile size, target strip widths, edge profile, finish reference, product mix, sorting rules and workshop utilities.

05

Waterjet Cutting Solution

Customer requirement

For factories that need internal cut-outs, curves, decorative profiles, inlays or angled geometry from approved materials. The technical review requires CAD files, material and thickness, smallest feature, edge expectation, nesting needs and intended downstream finishing.

Material

Stone, tile, glass and other materials only when suitability has been confirmed for the chosen pump, head, support and cutting process.

Typical products

Countertop openings, decorative panels, signs, medallions, inlay components and drawing-defined profiles.

Machine configuration

The pump, cutting head, three- or five-axis arrangement, tank, abrasive delivery, controller and software are a complete system. Axis count should follow the geometry rather than serve as a stand-alone buying criterion. Confirm using representative drawings and material.

Production advantages

A drawing-first workflow makes complex geometry easier to discuss before production and clarifies where secondary finishing remains necessary. Nesting and cut sequencing can also be planned around material use and part stability without promising a universal result.

Processing workflow

  1. Clean and review CAD geometry and material data.
  2. Prepare nesting, support and a suitable cutting path.
  3. Cut using the confirmed head, abrasive and process settings.
  4. Inspect geometry and edge condition, then complete secondary finishing if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose three axes or five axes?

Choose from the required geometry and edge condition. Flat profiles and inclined cutting are different tasks; send drawings for a configuration review.

Does a waterjet always leave a finished edge?

No. Edge condition depends on material, thickness, settings and requirements. Some parts need secondary finishing, so define acceptance visually and dimensionally.

06

Mosaic Processing Solution

Customer requirement

For producers converting ceramic tile or confirmed stone into small pieces for mesh-mounted mosaics, borders and decorative patterns. Specify input material, thickness, piece sizes, pattern, joint allowance, surface direction, sorting method and acceptable dimensional variation.

Material

Ceramic, porcelain and selected stone materials assessed through representative strips and sample layouts.

Typical products

Square or rectangular mosaic pieces, borders, pattern components and small decorative elements prepared for later assembly.

Machine configuration

The route can include upstream tile sizing, a mosaic cutter, suitable collection and sorting arrangements, and downstream assembly outside the cutting machine. Tooling and support should be chosen from actual material, minimum piece size and sample requirements.

Production advantages

Defining incoming strip quality prevents the final cutter from being treated as the only control point. It also links cutting tolerances to the visible joints and assembly method of the finished mosaic.

Processing workflow

  1. Size the source material into consistent blanks or strips.
  2. Cut strips into the required small-piece dimensions.
  3. Collect, clean and sort pieces by size and appearance.
  4. Arrange a sample layout and inspect joints and pattern consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can irregular incoming strips produce consistent mosaics?

They make consistency harder to control. Define upstream sizing and inspect strip width before small-piece cutting.

Does the machine assemble pieces on mesh?

Do not assume so. Cutting and sheet assembly can be separate operations; confirm the requested supply scope and show the target layout.

07

Stone Sample Processing Solution

Customer requirement

For stone suppliers, engineered-surface brands, distributors and showrooms preparing repeatable sample pieces for displays and sales sets. Define material range, blank and finished sizes, thicknesses, edge appearance, label area, quantity mix and packing standard.

Material

Natural stone, engineered quartz and other surface materials after their cutting and edge-finishing behavior is reviewed.

Typical products

Hand samples, display-board pieces, showroom sets, color chips and presentation samples in agreed dimensions.

Machine configuration

Dedicated sample cutting and edge-preparation equipment can be combined with simple fixtures for inspection and sorting. The current category image does not identify a specific model, so configuration must be based on the written sample specification and real materials.

Production advantages

A repeatable route turns sample presentation into a defined production task and can use suitable source pieces efficiently. Clear standards for size, edge and labeling also reduce subjective inspection.

Processing workflow

  1. Sort source offcuts or slabs and plan sample blanks.
  2. Cut blanks to the approved size with safe support.
  3. Prepare edges and clean visible surfaces.
  4. Check dimensions and appearance, then label and pack.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can production offcuts be used for samples?

Often they can, if size, condition and appearance meet the sample standard. Plan sorting and safe blank preparation before machine selection.

Which model is shown in the category image?

The source identifies it only as a stone-sample machinery category image. Request a written model recommendation for your material and sample size.

08

Complete Factory Solution

Customer requirement

For new or expanding workshops that need an equipment route rather than an isolated machine. The planning brief should cover intended products, material mix, part drawings, output scenarios, site dimensions, utilities, staffing, handling, maintenance access and outsourced operations.

Material

The chosen natural stone, engineered quartz, sintered stone, ceramic or mixed materials, each validated for the relevant process stage.

Typical products

A defined factory product range such as countertops, architectural stone, tile components, mosaics or samples—not an unspecified promise to process everything.

Machine configuration

The equipment list may draw from cutting, CNC, waterjet, profiling, edge polishing, tile, mosaic and sample machinery. It remains a proposal until the customer’s materials, products, layout and representative samples are technically reviewed and documented.

Production advantages

Whole-route planning exposes missing transfers, utilities and inspection stages before equipment arrives. It also separates essential processes from optional expansion, helping the buyer phase investment without claiming guaranteed capacity or payback.

Processing workflow

  1. Map products from incoming material to dispatch and list every operation.
  2. Match equipment, handling, utilities and inspection points to the route.
  3. Review layout, access, safety responsibilities and sample acceptance.
  4. Confirm supply boundaries, commissioning, training, documents and spare-parts planning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a complete factory be quoted from floor area alone?

No. Floor area is only one input. Products, materials, drawings, output mix, utilities, handling and staffing are needed to develop a responsible proposal.

How should acceptance be organized?

Agree which machines and representative parts will be checked, the inspection method, responsibilities and documents. Put final criteria in the signed technical agreement.
