Marble and Granite Bridge Saw
Hualong HLSQ-400 PLUS Four Axis PLC Shaping Cutting Machine
For marble and granite processing companies, production efficiency depends not only on cutting speed but also on the equipment's ability to meet the demands of irregular shaped processing. Conventional bridge saws are primarily used for straight line cutting, which is the most basic application scenario for marble and granite bridge saws. However, when quotations include irregular shaped processing requirements such as fan shaped window sills, diamond shaped tile mosaics, or curved stair treads, conventional straight line cutting alone is insufficient for efficient completion. Such companies often require additional equipment, or orders flow to manufacturers with these processing capabilities.
The Hualong HLSQ-400 PLUS 4+1 axis PLC control system shaping cutting machine features four axis linkage interpolation with a preset shape library, catering to the needs of various irregular shaped stone processing. For marble and granite processors looking to expand their irregular shaped product processing range and undertake more customized orders, this marble and granite bridge saw offers a reliable choice with flexible equipment application.
Positioning and Interpolation
For marble and granite processing companies, conventional straight line cutting is only part of daily production. When orders involve the following, the equipment's angle positioning method, processing path settings, and repeatability become particularly important：
The Hualong HLSQ-400 PLUS four axis PLC forming and cutting machine is positioned to meet irregular cutting needs within the equipment's actual processing capacity, building upon conventional stone cutting capabilities.

Equipment selection for different cutting tasks
|
Processing tasks |
Conventional indexing and positioning PLC saw |
Hualong HLSQ-400 PLUS |
|
Conventional straight line cutting and bevel cutting |
Suitable for processing tasks supported by equipment specifications and positioning functions. |
It can also be used for corresponding regular cutting tasks. |
|
Polygonal and diamond mosaic |
It may require step by step positioning, workpiece adjustment, or multiple cuts. |
The corresponding contours can be processed using supported interpolation paths and preset shape functions. |
|
Fan shaped, circular, and other irregular outlines |
Whether it is applicable needs to be determined based on the existing control functions and processing technology. |
For contours supported by the shape library or control program, processing can be arranged according to the actual capabilities of the equipment. |
|
Thin plate processing |
An assessment needs to be made based on the saw blade specifications, material thickness, and equipment process requirements. |
The applicable scope should be determined based on the material thickness, cutting stability, and actual test results. |
|
Complex 3D contours, integrated waterjet machining, or multi process linkage |
An assessment is needed to determine if additional specialized equipment is required. |
If the machining capacity exceeds that of this machine model, a suitable five axis CNC or waterjet cutting equipment should be further evaluated. |
Choose the appropriate bridge cutter based on actual orders
01. Production primarily involves conventional straight line cutting and processing of thicker stone (no specific demand for irregular shapes).
We recommend evaluating models like the Hualong HLSQ-650, which better suit actual processing requirements, rather than investing in unnecessary equipment for additional features.
02. Orders are based on marble and granite slab cutting (while also including a certain proportion of polygonal, mosaic, or other supported irregular contours).
The HLSQ-400 PLUS is worth considering. For operations involving complex 3D contours, waterjet cutting, or higher order multi axis linkage, a corresponding HKNC 5 axis machine should be selected.
For stone processing plants that primarily process conventional slabs while also undertaking a certain proportion of irregular orders, when choosing a marble and granite bridge saw, the following factors should be considered comprehensively, rather than solely judging the suitability of the equipment based on the saw head's rotation angle:
Material thickness
Contour type
Cutting size
Processing batch
Actual operating procedure
Shape library
attention
If the standard shape library cannot meet the repetitive processing needs of a specific order, the feasibility of custom cutting templates can be further evaluated. For users of the marble and granite bridge saw, which processes marble and granite, the benefits include:
The value of the shape library lies in providing a more intuitive operational interface for processing common irregular shapes.
Operators can select the appropriate processing method based on order requirements.
Handling diverse stone contours within the equipment's capabilities.

FAQ
Q1: Can the equipment maintain the cutting accuracy of repeating diamond patterns within a 40 m² processing area?
A: Processing repeatability is controlled by the program and does not rely on operator judgment. After the program is set, the equipment can repeatedly process along the same path. It is recommended to measure each batch of incoming materials and use laser assisted positioning of the origin.
Q2: How long does it take for an operator to master the use of the shape library?
A: We provide on site training and free remote technical guidance throughout the equipment's lifecycle.
Q3: Will the 5.5 kW electric spindle limit cutting performance?
A: The 5.5 kW electric spindle is mainly used for light milling and small tool processing. This power combination is fully compatible with the core sheet metal forming process of this marble and granite bridge saw. If the production task is mainly deep milling, it is recommended to further evaluate the HKNC series machining center.
Q4: Can I view the actual processing effect of the customized profile before shipment?
A: Yes. Please provide processing drawings when placing an order, and we can provide online video recordings of sample processing in real time.
