Stone CNC Router Applications & Projects

The stone CNC Router machine is suitable for engraving and cutting of marble, granite, ceramic tile background wall, glass, copper, and aluminum, etc. It is widely used in stone monument carving, ceramic tile carving background walls, stone statue stone pillars, handicraft carving, mold carving, etc. There are planes and three-dimensional carving, etc. Type, you can also multi-head CNC relief.

How does a stone CNC Router machine work?

The stone CNC Router machine is a three-dimensional numerical control system, and its working principle is shown in the figure: special design and typesetting software are installed in the general microcomputer to design and typeset graphics and text, automatically generate processing path information, and transmit it through a USB interface or other data. The interface transmits the tool path data to the single-chip microcomputer. After the CNC system receives the tool path data and completes a series of functions such as display and user interaction, it uses a specific algorithm to convert the input path information into CNC information, and the controller converts this information into drive The signal (pulse train) of the stepper motor or servo motor controls the x, Y and Z axes of the engraving machine. At the same time, by milling, you can engrave various planes or three-dimensional graphic characters designed on the computer to realize automatic engraving processing.

What’s the Stone CNC Router Price?

The price is a question that most people will ask in advance when buying goods. Some people are just for high prices and quality. Some are because they already know this product. Ask the price to compare with each other to see which one should be selected. Products are better.

The CNC router stone engraving machine is mainly used for engraving marble, granite, jade, blue-stone, black stone, and other stone materials, as well as ceramics, glass, organic glass, PVC board, aluminum-plastic board, bamboo, and other materials. The price range is generally between 2,000USD and 15,000USD.

The price gap of stone CNC Router machine is large, mainly affected by the following factors:

  • The brand of the engraving machine is different. At present, there are many manufacturers and brands of such equipment on the market, and the price will be affected by the brand.
  • The power of the engraving machine. Because the hardness of the wood material is relatively large, in general, woodworking engraving machines need to be equipped with a spindle motor with a higher power. The higher the power, the higher the price will be.
  • The beam of the engraving machine, some of the engraving machines on the market are made of steel, and some are made of aluminum, and the price difference is also very large.
  • In terms of transmission mode, the engraving machine is divided into a screw machine and a rack machine. The price of the rack machine is much more expensive than the screw machine. The screw machine is generally used in the advertising industry. Those who do mahogany furniture are also recommended to choose this Various model, and the rack machine, the transmission speed is relatively fast, generally used for cutting, wood door processing, etc. It is not that the rack machine is not suitable for the advertising industry, but the rack machine is used in the advertising industry, the cost performance is not great A bit overkill. The three axes of the screw machine are screw drives, the XY axis of the rack machine is rack drive, and the rack machine is dual drive.
  • The bed of the engraving machine is mainly divided into three types: channel steel, square tube, and cast iron. Those who are familiar with this equipment generally know that the bed of cast iron is good. If the square tube is thickened, the cost is more than that of cast iron. High and better stability than cast iron, requires specific analysis.
  • If it is also a rack machine, the price difference is also very large, which must be compared to each part of the engraving machine. For example, the main shaft is generally divided into water-cooled and air-cooled, and the price is different according to the brand.

In summary, the stone CNC Router machine will have a wide range of prices due to brand, power, and other reasons. When choosing, you can consider all aspects to choose from.

What are the engraving methods of stone CNC Router?

The engraving method of each stone CNC Router machine is different, and the equipment of the stone is also the same. Each different stone and the customer’s needs are different. When engraving, different engraving techniques should be used according to the type of product. The methods are:

  • Relief: The relief is two-dimensional, the overall image is retained, the rest is removed, and the picture is protruding from the object.
  • Shadow carving: As the name implies, its carving image is realistic, just like photography.
  • Flat carving: Flat carving is carving on the stone, which is to engrave the image and make the picture concave.
  • Round carving: Round carving, also known as three-dimensional carving, is the overall expression of art on carved pieces. The viewer can see all sides of the object from different angles. It requires the sculptor to sculpt from the front, back, left, right, top, center, and bottom.

The above is about the commonly used engraving methods of stone engraving machines. If you still have questions about stone engraving machines, you can continue to pay attention to the website, and we will continue to update them for you.

How to Choose the Right Stone CNC Router Machine?

When selecting production equipment, it is very important how to choose better equipment. Good equipment can not only produce high-quality and beautiful products but also improve overall production efficiency and profit. You can refer to the following when purchasing a stone engraving machine Several aspects!

  • Spindle motor
     The spindle motor is divided into high-power and low-power, and the stone texture is hard. The low-power spindle is only suitable for the processing of wooden or plastic materials such as double-color plates, architectural models, small signs, and three-dimensional crafts. The spindle for stone machines is still recommended to be 5.5 kW or With the above power and the engraving speed of 6000–24000 rpm, different rotation speeds can be adopted for different materials, which can effectively process the stone and prolong the service life of the spindle bearing.
  • Rail-motor
     The orbital motor of the engraving machine is a very important component. Taking the classic style 1325 stone machine as an example, the machine has 4 orbital motors. At present, the common motor is divided into stepping and servo. The difference in the motor affects the processing speed and processing accuracy of the machine, and a large factor affects the price of the machine. Therefore, the motor configuration should be the primary reference factor.
  • Control system
     At present, the control system of the stone engraving machine in the market is mainly divided into two types. First, the board control board is divided into genuine and pirated; second, the handle control. Board control customers need to visually observe the material processing process when working with a computer machine, and can change the inappropriate gray image path at any time; the handle control saves the space of the customer’s plant, the customer does not need to be equipped with a computer, the disadvantage is that it needs to use U It is not possible to visualize the process of material processing by converting grayscale images. This can be reasonably configured according to your situation.
  • The manufacturer’s production scale and after-sales service of equipment When understanding and investigating stone engraving machine equipment, many people generally ask for comparison prices. However, the prices reported by different manufacturers may vary greatly, and some may even be very different. Engraving machine manufacturers vary in size and after-sales service. To allow the purchased equipment to be better produced and used, it is recommended to choose a manufacturer with better after-sales.

In summary, when choosing the stone engraving machine equipment, you must carefully ask and understand before deciding whether to buy this equipment. The above aspects are for reference only.
