Technology of dimension stone cutting

Аннотация

The author proposes a promising technology to separate monolith stones and preformed blocks for construction from rocks mass using a diamond rope cutting machine ensuring reduction in labor content, cost and loss as well as enhancing the process production output. The analytical model is developed, and the dependences between the material loss and the technology parameters are found. The main standards are formulated for the technology, and the ways of improving the diamond rope cutting machines design based on material loss minimization are specified.
