There are two kinds of machine called Gangsaw, one is frame-saw, use gangsaw blades with its gangsaw segments to cut, the other one is big gangsaw, use abrasive slurry and steel bits to cut. Usually frame-saw is commonly called gang saw, but another kind of big stone cutting machine is called gang saw too.
We are using Gangsaw with 80 blades for cutting our blocks, like granite, and marble. It can also cut slabs of other soft stone blocks such as limestone or travertine into desired sizes.
Our gangsaw, like the standard ones, is composed of diamond segments embedded onto the edges of gangs saw blades. Here, to assist in the cutting of stone blades, water is used as an abrasive medium to help cooling down the blades. As the gangsaws blades cut through the blocks of stone, the gang saw that is used may not cut into a straight path because of its abrasive action causes vibration to the gang saw. As a result, the stone slabs that are cut using these types of gangsaws blades differ in thickness within one stone slab.
