From Raw Stone to Refined Design

Every architectural project tells a story—and marble is often its most expressive material. But achieving design precision, whether for curved staircases, intricate inlays, or seamless countertops, requires advanced cutting and fabrication capabilities.
That’s where custom marble cutting comes in. With the right technology and craftsmanship, even the hardest stone can be shaped into a form that fits both structure and style.
At StoneSale, cutting precision isn’t just a technical process—it’s an art built on decades of experience and innovation.

The Technology Behind Modern Marble Cutting

Traditional marble processing relied heavily on manual tools, leading to inconsistent dimensions and material waste. Today, digital modeling and computer-controlled systems have transformed the craft.

StoneSale’s custom marble cutting process includes:

  • CNC Bridge Sawing: Automated multi-axis cutting ensures tolerance within ±0.3 mm.

  • Waterjet Cutting: High-pressure precision for intricate shapes and inlay patterns.

  • Edge Profiling: Options include bullnose, ogee, bevel, chamfer, and half-round finishes.

  • Drilling and Slotting: For sinks, fixtures, and mounting hardware.

  • Polishing and Finishing: Surface treatment for gloss, texture, or matte tone.

Each slab is digitally mapped before cutting, ensuring perfect alignment with design drawings and minimizing material waste.

Comparison: Traditional vs. CNC Marble Cutting

Factor Traditional Cutting CNC / Waterjet Marble Cutting
Precision ±2–3 mm ±0.3 mm
Shape Capability Straight cuts only Curves, arcs, complex designs
Efficiency Manual Automated, faster throughput
Material Waste 10–15% <3%
Repeatability Variable Digitally consistent
Design Compatibility Limited Full CAD/CAM integration

By combining CNC and waterjet technology, StoneSale achieves both speed and sculptural detail across diverse project types.
