Key Advantages of the HD-350T Stone Cutting Machine
1. Accurate 3-Axis CNC Cutting
The X, Y and Z axes are CNC controlled for repeatable positioning and automated stone slab cutting.
2. Efficient Large-Slab Handling
The hydraulic tilting worktable helps operators load, position and handle large-format slabs more efficiently.
3. Faster Slab Positioning
The infrared positioning system provides a visible cutting reference and simplifies slab alignment before automatic cutting.
4. Focused Cutting Configuration
HD-350T is designed around the core requirements of stone slab cutting and sizing. This focused configuration makes it suitable for fabricators that do not require integrated milling and shaping.
HD-350T vs. 3+1, 4+1 and 5+1 CNC Stone Cutting Machines
HORD offers several machine configurations for different stone fabrication requirements.
| Model | Cutting Configuration | Independent Milling Head | Main Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| HD-350T | 3 Axis | No | Stone slab cutting and sizing |
| HD-350P | 3+1 Axis | Yes | Cutting + sink openings + milling |
| HD-350M | 4+1 Axis | Yes | Advanced cutting + milling |
| HD-500M | 5+1 Axis | Yes | Multi-axis cutting + advanced milling |
What Does 3+1, 4+1 or 5+1 Mean?
In HORD’s machine configuration, the +1 refers to an independent milling head, rather than simply indicating one additional CNC axis.
This independent milling head can be used for operations such as:
- Sink openings
- Faucet holes
- Drilling
- Milling
- Countertop shaping
- Selected profiling operations
Therefore, HD-350T has a different production focus from HORD’s 3+1, 4+1 and 5+1 machines.
If your main workflow is:
Cutting → Sizing → Repeatable Slab Production
HD-350T provides a focused solution.
If your workflow requires:
Cutting → Sink Opening → Drilling → Milling → Shaping
a machine with an independent milling head is more suitable.

| Touchscreen HMI | Allows operators to enter parameters and manage machine operation. |
HD-350T Stone Cutting Workflow
1. Slab Loading
Place the marble, granite, quartz or other suitable stone slab securely on the worktable.
2. Worktable Positioning
Use the hydraulic tilting function when required to facilitate slab loading and positioning.
3. Infrared Alignment
Use the infrared positioning system to establish the required cutting reference.
4. CNC Programming
Enter the required dimensions and cutting quantities through the CNC control interface.
5. Automatic Stone Cutting
The CNC system coordinates X/Y/Z movement during the programmed cutting cycle.
6. Finished Piece Inspection
Check the finished components for dimensions and cutting quality before transferring them to subsequent fabrication processes.
Who Is the HD-350T Designed For?
HD-350T is suitable for:
- Marble processing factories
- Granite fabrication shops
- Quartz countertop manufacturers
- Stone fabrication workshops
- Architectural stone manufacturers
- Flooring and wall-panel manufacturers
- Custom stone fabricators
- Small and medium-sized stone production facilities
The machine is particularly suitable for businesses whose main requirement is automated stone slab cutting rather than integrated CNC milling and shaping.
Why Choose the HD-350T?
Choosing a stone cutting machine should be based on the actual production workflow rather than simply the number of axes.
HD-350T is designed for fabricators that need a dedicated CNC solution for:
Large Slab → Accurate Positioning → Automatic Cutting → Repeatable Production
Its 3-axis configuration keeps the machine focused on core cutting operations, while optional features such as the hydraulic tilting table, 360° rotating platform and 45° bevel cutting provide additional production flexibility.
For customers requiring integrated sink openings, drilling, milling, profiling or more advanced stone shaping, HORD provides CNC Stone Fabrication Centers and multi-axis machines equipped with independent milling heads.
