THE CLIENT
Ultimate Stone is a stone fabrication plant processing natural stone, man-made quartz and porcelain.

PROJECT OBJECTIVES

  • Trial Chemforce S-Complex™, cutting 2 types of hard quartzite – Taj Mahal and Iceberg using a Sabre Jet XT Bridge Saw.
  • Achieve a higher cutting speed by dosing the water to the saw with a small amount of S-Complex.
  • Optimize the Zenesis blade to maintain optimal sharpness and cleaner cuts with fewer blowouts.

CHEMFORCE™ S-Complex™ SOLUTION

The water feed to the Sabre Jet XP bridge saw was directly dosed with 0.8% S-Complex™ using a Dema inline injector dosing pump.

Increased Cutting Performance                   Taj Mahal Quartzite

Typical cutting speed with fresh water       30 inches/Min

With 0.8% S-Complex™                                135 inches/Min

Increase in cutting speed                               x 4.5

Increased Cutting Performance                   Iceberg Quartzite

Typical cutting speed with fresh water       20 inches/Min

With 0.8% S-Complex™                                95 inches/Min

Increase in cutting speed                               x 4.75

After the trial, Ultimate Stone used the S-Complex™ to cut a full kitchen project from Iceberg Quartzite in 12 minutes, which would usually take 1 hour.
