Stone processing & quarries

Diamond tools for granite and natural stone. A blade that does not glaze.

Large-diameter blades, diamond wire and bridge saw blades with a bond matched to your stone. Made in Lower Silesia, Poland – in the middle of one of Europe's major granite regions – and delivered across Europe.

Why a blade glazes on granite

Animation: segment wear with a bond that is too hard and with a bond matched to granite Left: the bond is too hard – the segment surface does not wear, diamonds go blunt and glaze, cutting stops. Right: a matched bond wears together with the grit and exposes fresh diamonds, cutting continues.

From the bench to the worktop

A tool for every stage of stone processing

Each stage has a different tool, a different machine and a different segment load. That is why a bond for cutting blocks is not the same as one for cutting slabs.

Bond selection by stone

Which stone, which bond

The rule is simple: the harder the stone, the softer the bond; the more abrasive, the harder the bond. We refine the details on your deposit – granite from two quarries can cut completely differently.

What stone plants come to us with

Four problems that stop the line

  • The blade glazes

    Cause: the bond is too hard for the granite – diamonds go blunt, new ones are not exposed.

    Fix: a softer bond for the stone hardness, refined in a trial on your deposit.

  • Frequent blade changes

    Cause: a catalogue tool that does not match the stone or the machine.

    Fix: a bond developed for your cut – more metres per blade.

  • The blade wanders, slabs vary in thickness

    Cause: uneven segment wear, core tension or run-out.

    Fix: run-out check, segments from one batch, a core matched to the machine.

  • Shipping large blades for retipping

    Cause: a large-diameter blade leaves the plant for days.

    Fix: planned retipping with a spare blade set and logistics agreed in advance.

Model scenario

Granite, bridge saw, 20,000 m of cutting a month

A scenario based on market benchmarks: a standard market blade versus a bond refined over three versions.

Market standard1,200 mper blade
Bond version 11,650 m+38% – first batch
Version 21,850 m+54%
Version 31,920 m+60% vs standard

75 fewer changes and 56 fewer hours of downtime a year – about €52,000 saved, even though the custom-bond blade costs more.

A model scenario, not the result of a specific customer. See the full calculation or calculate your own case.

Brazing new segments onto a large diamond blade core

Stone blade retipping

New segments in your bond on the same core.

We retip large-diameter and bridge saw blades with segments in your own bond. For customers outside Poland we agree the scope, schedule and shipping before the blades are sent – so your line keeps running on a spare set.

Stone processors ask

Granite tools – frequently asked questions

Custom bonds for stone plants
Which diamond blade for granite?

Hard granite needs a soft bond that wears and exposes fresh grit. For slabs – a bridge saw blade; for blocks – a large-diameter blade or diamond wire. See granite blades.

Why does a blade glaze on granite?

The bond is too hard for the stone: the diamonds go blunt, while the bond does not wear and expose new grit. Cutting an abrasive material helps in the short term; a softer bond matched to your granite is the lasting fix.

Wire or blade for cutting blocks?

Diamond wire cuts blocks of any size and works well at the quarry face. A large-diameter blade gives faster, repeatable cuts when squaring blocks in the plant. They often work side by side. See diamond wire.

Do you retip large stone blades?

Yes – with new segments in your bond and a report after every retip. For customers outside Poland, the scope and shipping are agreed before the blades are sent.

Does granite from different quarries need a different bond?

Often, yes. Mineral composition, grain size and quartz content vary between quarries. That is why we refine the bond in a trial on your stone.
