Sintered stone has become one of the most popular premium materials in modern architecture, kitchen countertops, furniture, and interior design. Its high hardness, large slab sizes, and durability make it ideal for residential and commercial projects. However, its unique properties also make cutting, polishing, and finishing extremely challenging without professional machinery.
At HORD Machinery, we provide complete sintered stone processing solutions — from five-axis waterjet cutting to 45° bevel polishing and CNC bridge saw cutting. Our machines are engineered to help fabricators process sintered stone with precision, efficiency, and long-term reliability.
Why Sintered Stone Requires Specialized Machinery
Unlike marble or quartz, sintered stone is:
- Extremely hard → difficult to cut with standard stone machines
- Large format slabs → require stable, heavy-duty equipment
- Brittle under improper handling → prone to chipping without the right tools
- Demanding in seamless applications → like integrated sinks, waterfall edges, and mitred 45° joints
This means fabricators need advanced equipment that can handle precision cutting, beveling, and hole-drilling while keeping the material stable.
Essential Machines for a Sintered Stone Fabrication Shop
A professional sintered stone shop typically needs three core machines:
- AC 3-Axis Waterjet Cutting Machine (4020 model)
- CNC Bridge Saw (3-Axis)
- Seven-Head 45° Bevel Polishing Machine
Depending on your production scale, you can start with one machine or invest in the full suite for maximum efficiency.
AC 5-Axis Waterjet Cutting Machine (4020 Model)
The AC 5-Axis Waterjet is the heart of any sintered stone workshop. It is the only machine capable of performing precise sink cutouts, faucet holes, curved edges, and seamless 45° mitre cuts.
Applications:
- Undermount sink cutouts
- Integrated seamless sinks
- Kitchen islands and countertops
- TV cabinet surfaces
- Dining and coffee tables
- Background walls
Technical Overview of the 5 Axes:
- X & Y axes → horizontal movement for shape cutting
- Z axis → vertical depth control
- A axis → tilt rotation (cutting at angles)
- C axis → 360° rotation for complex angles
This flexibility allows fabricators to achieve precise mitred edges and seamless joins that traditional saws cannot.
CNC 3-Axis Bridge Saw for Sintered Stone
For straight-line slab cutting, the HORD Machinery sintered stone 3 axis cnc bridge saw is essential. While the waterjet is perfect for precision and complex shapes, the bridge saw is designed for high-speed cutting with low operational cost.
Key Features:
- High-speed spindle motor with up to 3500 rpm
- Infrared positioning for precise alignment
- CNC touch-screen controls with easy operation
- Hydraulic lifting platform for large slabs
- Adjustable saw head (0–90° rotation)
Technical Parameters:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Cutting Size | 3200 × 1600 mm |
| Cutting Motor Power | 15 kW |
| Blade Diameter | Ø300–350 mm × 50 mm |
| Head Rotation | 0–90° |
| Travel Speed | 0.25–4.5 m/min |
| Total Power | 17 kW |
| Dimensions | 5.3 × 2.8 × 2.2 m |
| Weight | Heavy-duty cast iron frame |
This machine is ideal for large slab cutting with clean edges, no chipping, and minimal waste.
7-Head 45° Bevel Polishing Machine
When it comes to creating luxury seamless joints for countertops, kitchen islands, stair treads, and waterfall edges, the sintered stone edge chamfering machine is indispensable.
Features:
- Seven polishing heads with dedicated functions
- Capable of pre-cutting, rough grinding, fine grinding, and final polishing
- Automatic conveyor belt feeding system
- Adjustable processing width (up to 3.8 m)
- Compatible with sintered stone, quartz, marble, and granite
Technical Parameters:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Cutting Motor Power | 7.5 kW |
| Pre-Cut Motor Power | 3 kW |
| Bevel Polishing Motors | 2.2–4 kW |
| Max Processing Width | 3800 mm |
| Processing Thickness | 3–20 mm |
| Processing Speed | 0.5–2 m/min |
| Blade Size | Ø300–310 mm |
| Total Power | ~25–36 kW |
| Machine Weight | ~3000–3500 kg |
The machine ensures perfect mitre joints with a fine polish, making seams virtually invisible.
CNC Sink Hole Edge Polishing Machine
In addition to the “big three” machines, a CNC sink hole edge polishing machine greatly improves efficiency in producing integrated sinks and undermount cutouts.
Highlights:
- Japanese industrial camera for automatic positioning
- Automatic recognition of hole size and shape
- Four-stage grinding: rough, semi-fine, fine, and final polish
- CNC-controlled precision, eliminating manual marking errors
- Processing speed: up to 3 minutes per sink cutout
Technical Parameters:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Grinding Wheels | 4 (diamond + resin + polishing) |
| Min. Inner Hole Size | 300 × 300 mm |
| Max. Inner Hole Size | 450 × 850 mm |
| Max. Outer Hole Size | 600 × 1400 mm |
| Processing Thickness | 12–20 mm |
| Processing Speed | 0.5–2 m/min |
| Machine Power | 9.8 kW |
| Dimensions | 2600 × 2200 × 1700 mm |
| Weight | 3000 kg |
Recommended Setup for a New Sintered Stone Shop
If you’re starting a fabrication business for sintered stone, we recommend:
- One AC 5-Axis Waterjet – for cutouts, curves, and mitred edges
- One CNC Bridge Saw – for straight cuts and large slab processing
- One 45° Bevel Polishing Machine – for seamless joints and luxury finishes
This combination ensures:
- High productivity
- Reduced processing cost
- Perfect cutting and seamless finishing
