Cnc Marble Carving Tools
Most stones are hard enough to dull and burn even the toughest carbide tools within seconds. So we need some help of girls best friends: Diamonds. I'm using 6mm diamond grinder bits with 3mm shaft. Don't worry, even though those are real (industrial) diamonds they are dirt cheap: I've spent 7.50 € (about $10) for a set of 30 grinder bits directly from China (eBay) and they proved to be really tough and reliable. Grinder bits come in different grit sizes: try to get a coarse one (e.g.
40 grit) - they work much faster and tolerate more abuse than finer versions (which in turn are nice if you want to achieve almost polished surfaces) Things you need to know:. Never ever cut vertical: the fastest way to destroy a diamond grinder bit is to plunge vertically into the stone. You need to use a ramp of just a few degrees to work your way down into the material. Use lots and lots of water: cutting hard stones creates large amounts of heat.
Your grinder bit will glow red hot after just a few seconds if you try to cut without water. I prefer to submerge everything under water. Make good use of the diamonds: it makes little sense to use just the first few mm of a diamond coated tool. If your tool is covered at a length of e.g. 10mm use it by adjusting the step down value in your CAM to a value close to 10mm. Feed rates and tool life will be almost the same no matter which step down value you choose - so large values get much more work done before the tool is worn out.
I've put the stone into a plastic box and secured it with clamps. Make sure to put some soft material between stone and clamp and don't tighten up too much.

Set your origin at the center (I've messed this up a bit as you can see). Stones are usually not perfectly smooth so we should set Z-axis origin above the material to prevent crashes. I've definded 21mm deep pockets but only require 16mm, so Z-axis origin was set 5mm above the material.
You'll see in the video that the cut starts well above the stone. Finally submerge everything in water and start the CNC program.

Stone Carving Cnc Tools
CNC Tooling Wide variety of high quality CNC Tooling. You can find all the categories of CNC Router Bits to work properly marble, granite, quartz and synthetic stone. We have divided CNC tools in 7 main categories: Engraving router bits, Writing router bits,Core Drill bits, Drainboard tools, Finger bits, Profile wheels and Stubbing wheels Engraving router bits, Writing router bits categories include all the router bits mainly used in small cnc machines for engraving, carving, lettering and making reliefs in stones. Because of that they are called also v-carving bits, signmaking bits or writing bits. The V-tip tools have cutting edges in Widia (Solid Carbide) or Polycrystalline.
Different engraving tools for different material:. for marble and soft stones it’s better to use widia tools. for granite, engineered stones and hard material use polycrystalline tools The “not V-tip tools” can be sintered for granite working or electroplated for marble working. For example the Core Drill bits, Drainboard tools, Finger bits, Profile wheels and Stubbing wheels categories include diamond tools mainly used in big CNC working centers (often 4 or 5 axes machines) for cutting, drilling and profiling stones. These tools are used in stone fabrication, tile and monument industries where it’s requested to produce kitchen tops, bathroom countertops, sinks and all the other stone fabrication works.
So we have different diamond tools for different kind of stones:. for granite, engineered stones and hard material you need to get sintered tools. for marble and soft stones it’s better to use electroplated tools.
