The Tile Plant
The Tile Saw In Action (1): First of all
the tile saw cuts the granite into slabs 10 mm thick (3/8") of various
length strips. The length of strip is determined by the block being
cut. Later in the cutting process, the length is dimensioned to
customer specification.
 |
The Tile Saw In Action (2): As you can
see from the image on the left, the tile saw is a very powerful
machine and slicing through the granite's very hard structure
is relatively easy for it since the saw tips are composed of
industrial diamonds. |
The Tile Saw In Action (3): Copious amounts
of water are used during the cutting process to ensure that the
diamond tipped blades are kept cool. Even the diamond tips can be
damaged during the cutting process if care is not taken due to the
extreme amount of heat that accumulates whilst cutting takes place.
