Tile Saws and Their Types


Tile saws are available in different sizes. Some tile saws can give quicker cuts and can hold larger tiles without problems as compared to others. The larger tile saws have a steel or plastic water tray. Of these the steel trays are more durable while the plastic water trays are lighter in weight and cheaper to replace. Sliding tray saws are by far the most common saws seen on the jobsite. Tile saws use adjustable fences for angled cuts and square cuts. Fence stops are used to get multiple cuts of exactly the same size.





For ceramic or porcelain tiles, you need a water tray in your tile saw. Regular saws cannot handle the heat required to cut these materials, but wet tile saws cool the diamond blade while cutting. Use of wet tile saws gives your tiles a smoother edge. Tile setters use wet tile saws to trim tiles into fashionable patterns apart from trimming to fit the edges of a room. A large capacity water pump is included as standard accessory in most wet cutting tile saws.




Tile saws for cutting large stone slabs have two basic varieties Overhead Rail Saws and Track Saws. A 4 horse power Track Saw is very common sight at job sites and comes with a granite blade, laser guide and roller tables. A robust reinforced steel structure ensuring maximum rigidity and durability







For people who work with small stones, bricks, tiles or blocks precision is crucial to the end result. The stone or tile you cut must fit perfectly, just as the machine and the blade you use must fit your work situation perfectly. For plunge cuts tile saws include a spring that makes press cuts smoother and more comfortable. When buying a tile saw ask if it can make plunge cuts.

DIAMOND BLADE





A diamond blade is used for cutting hard or abrasive materials. They are great for cutting when building, remodeling or repairing at home or at the job site. Diamond blades can grind through concrete, brick, block, stone and other materials with similar properties easily. Grinding uses friction with the surface you want to cut to score and then grind through.


A diamond blade has a steel core to make it robust and powder metal that is mixed with diamond crystals then heated and pressed to form the cutting teeth of the blade also called diamond segments. These are then welded to the steel core.

There are various designs of steel core you can find on a diamond blade. Some have gullets between segments for fast cooling and easy slurry removal, while others have a continuous rim for smooth chip-free cutting. Small continuous rim blades are best with porcelain and ceramic tiles. The choice of a core depends on the kind of material you want to cut.

While choosing the right blade you should know how hard, or abrasive your material is and based on that you have to choose the blade that has the right chemistry for your material. Each Diamond Blade has its own combination of: bond, diamond concentration, diamond sizes/shapes, width, segment design, core design, etc.

Tile Saw



Tile saws come in a variety of sizes and shapes to cut through stone, marble, granite and ceramic tiles and your choice of a good tile saw depends on the type of material you want to cut. There are tile saws that can be used wet for precision cutting and bring cost of cutting down, while dry tile saws can be used for softer materials where chipping is not a major concern.




Tile setters need to cut tiles to fit the edges of a room or a design. A wet tile saw is ideally used with a diamond blade. The blade itself is dull and cuts through grinding a channel through the tile. The diamond blades used have no serrations and run at high rpm. Stones and ceramic tiles are best cut with wet tile saws.



Ceramic tiles, as you may know are the most commonly used tiles in the world. These are both thick and brittle. Due to their hard surface they resist germs and bacteria better than any other tile, and that is the main reason why these are the preferred choice for wash rooms, hospitals, pools and places where bacteria and germs are a cause of concern. While stone tiles are great for fireplaces and outdoors due to their resilience to heat.
The Imer Combicut tile saws are both sturdy and affordable. At www.ciciliotandson.com, you can find a nice selection of tile saws that are a preferred choice of professionals and newbies alike.


Diamond Blade


Diamond Blades

In construction and interior design, the role of tiles as décor plays an essential role. These are also popular due to the safety and hygiene features they offer. For instance, you may choose ceramic tiles due to their hypoallergenic quality or quarry tiles for a non-slip floor. In order to cut tiles of various materials to size, a host of choices are available to suit cutting requirement.




Diamond Blades are best used with a wet tile saw. A regular saw cannot handle the heat required to cut hard materials, but modern tile saws have a constant water supply to cool the blade. These blades actually do not cut instead grind through a channel in the tile. A circular saw blade has no segments; it has a high diamond concentration and comes in sizes as small as 3.5” to cut small ceramic tiles. The ones with segments have a steel core to which the segments are welded.





The diamond concentration at the segments is kept high for better grinding results. These diamond blades are long lasting if kept cool while cutting. Wet tile saws are best for wet cutting and give the diamond blades a long life while for dry cutting you will need to cut at intervals to allow the blade to cool down. Dry cutting is considered dangerous for health due to the flying dust that can be inhaled to the lungs. So the best saw to mount your diamond blade on is a wet cutting saw.

At http://www.ciciliotandson.com/ you can choose from stone saws, masonry saws, wet tile saws, electric tile saws and gas tile saws that can cut through all types of stones, porcelain, ceramic, blocks, travertine and similar materials.
