MARBLE PLATE CUTTING METHOD Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: civil engineering; production of facing materials. SUBSTANCE: according to method of marble plate cutting end face of blank is cut and ground in direction perpendicular to axis of rotation or turning of blank. Machined end face of blank is pressed through flange by vacuum to grinding wheel, with axial feed of grinding wheel so that diametric part of wheel overlaps turning axle of blank, then wheel is set into rotation and simultaneously cross movement is imparted to wheel until top of wheel completely comes out of contact with blank st maximum depth of working entry of wheel top into machined slot. Then wheel is moved back and wheel head or blank is turned through 180 degrees, and grinding wheel is fed for cutting into blank with maintenance of power closing of flange vacuum zone, and plate cutting off is completed. EFFECT: enhanced technological capabilities of marble plate cutting process. 1 dwg
