How are marble blocks cut?

Il processo di taglio dei blocchi di marmo inizia con l'estrazione dei blocchi dalla cava per poi trasportarli alle strutture di lavorazione dove si inizia il processo di trasformazione in lastre. Il taglio dei blocchi di marmo in lastre è la prima operazione del processo di trasformazione.

Per eseguire un taglio a regola d'arte, è necessario utilizzare attrezzature professionali come multifilo con fili diamantati, telai con multilame diamantate, tagliablocchi a dischi diamantati. Queste macchine, tra le altre dotazioni di cui sono corredate, utilizzano sistemi di raffreddamento ad acqua degli utensili diamantati che preservano il marmo dagli stress indotti dall’azione di taglio.

The importance of an industrial machine for marble cutting

Industrial machines have revolutionized the marble cutting process. Before the introduction of these advanced technologies, marble cutting was a manual, slow, and error-prone process. With the advent of these new machines, the industry has seen significant improvements in terms of:

• Precision: Modern machines can perform cuts with high accuracy, ensuring high-quality mass production

• Speed: Advanced equipment allows for increased production speed without compromising quality

• Waste Reduction: The use of advanced technologies minimizes material waste, optimizing marble usage

• Safety: Automated machines reduce the risk of workplace accidents, ensuring a safer environment.

Multiwire Jupiter GS230 TECH12 - The MULTIWIRE JUPITER TECH12 by Pedrini is a multiwire machine for cutting marble blocks, designed to produce 12 mm-thick slabs. It uses 5.3 mm diamond wires and offers models with 48, 60, 72, and 108 wires. Launched in 2019, this machine ensures flexibility, reliability, and high production capacity, increasing the yield of the block to 55.5 m² per cubic meter cut. The benefits include lower transportation and slab installation costs, higher block yield, and reduced waste.

Multiwire Jupiter GS230 - The MULTIWIRE JUPITER GS230 is a multiwire machine for marble blocks cutting designed for the rapid production of slabs using diamond wires. Available in various models, it stands out for the number and diameter of the wires (7.3 mm – 6.3 mm – 5.3 mm). The hydraulic system ensures precise tensioning, while the flywheel and wire guide rollers ensure uniform slab thickness. The machine is equipped with an intuitive graphical interface for programming the cutting cycles, offering maximum flexibility, reliability, and high production capacity.

Gang saw GS131 - GS131 is a modern-designed gang saw for cutting marble with diamond-segmented blades. It features a fixed-height blade holder frame and a lifting block-holding platform. With 80 blades, it ensures high-frequency and precise cuts, even at maximum lowering speeds. The unique "pendulum" system ensures smooth, frictionless movement. The presence of robust mechanical components offers exceptional quality and long-term reliability.

Block cutter M586 - The block cutter M586 is a 4-column machine ideal for cutting marble blocks. With vertical discs (from 1300 to 1700 mm) and a horizontal disc, it allows for precise cuts on a stationary block. The open structure facilitates the use of automatic loading and unloading systems. Equipped with motors up to 220 HP, the M586 ensures maximum cutting speed, optimizing the production of strips.
