A numeric-control work centre can be used for carrying out cutting operations or grinding and/or milling operations on plates of stone, marble, or, in general, natural or synthetic stone material, or ceramic material. The work centre comprises at least one working head movable along at least two mutually orthogonal horizontal axes on a work surface. The work surface includes a rigid supporting board, which defines a first planar supporting surface, and a series of sacrificial elements rigidly connected to the rigid supporting board. The sacrificial elements are arranged in positions spaced apart from each other and define a second supporting surface located at a higher level than the first planar supporting surface, so that a cutting tool coupled to the working head engraves the sacrificial elements, without interfering with the supporting board during a cutting operation on a plate resting on the sacrificial elements, whichever is the path followed by the cutting tool. Between the sacrificial elements there remain free portions of the planar surface of the supporting board, so that they can be removably engaged by one or more blocks for supporting and holding the plate. These blocks project above the sacrificial elements and are adapted to define a third supporting surface, located at a higher level than the second supporting surface, for supporting and holding a plate during a milling or grinding operation on the plate.

A tile saw including a saw unit having a motor and a saw blade, and a base supporting the saw unit above the base, where the base is fixed relative to the saw unit. A carriage is supported by the base. The carriage is translatable relative to the base and the saw unit, where the carriage is translatable along a first plane. The tile saw further includes a table for supporting a work piece to be cut by the saw blade. The table is translatable relative to the base and the saw unit, where the table is translatable along a second plane. The second plane is parallel to the first plane. The table is selectively translatable relative to the carriage.

Workbench (1) for supporting and moving articles comprising a frame (22), a support surface (24) able to tilt relative to the frame (22) and pass from an initial horizontal position into a final inclined position, at least one rigid element (30) hinged with the frame (22) at a pivoting point (P) and having an end portion (36) hinged with the surface (24) and at least one first actuator (44) configured to raise and rotate the surface (24) into an intermediate inclined position. The element (30) is shaped as a rocker arm with the pivoting point (P) arranged between a first wing (32) and a second wing (34) and movement means (54) are provided for rotation of the rocker arm (30) about an axis (X2) so as to move the surface (24) from the intermediate position into the final inclined position. The first actuator (44) comprises a fist end (46) hinged with the rocker arm (30) and a second end (48) hinged with the support surface (24).

An apparatus for trimming stone and brick is disclosed. The apparatus is comprised of flat sections which radiate from a central axis. Each of the flat sections has two cutting edges, for a total six cutting edges. In use, the apparatus is placed onto a supportive platform so two of the flat sections contact the platform, while the third extends up and is an apical striking platform. The mason holds a stone or brick so it rests on one of the cutting edges of the apical striking platform and strikes the top face of the stone or brick with a hammer, approximately over where the stone or brick contacts the edge of the trimmer. In addition to providing a cutting surface, the subject matter of this application reduces errant vibration caused by the striking which can result in irregular cutting.

A cutting device including a stand and a saw supported by the stand. The saw includes a motor and a blade rotatably driven by the motor. A pair of rails is supported by the stand. A tray is configured to support an object to be cut on an upper surface and including a roller assembly on a lower surface. The tray is slidable along the pair of rails towards and away from the blade. At least one of the rails is disposed over a basin configured to hold water.

A tile cutter with water control assembly includes a base, a work platform slidably set on the base along a front-rear direction, a sawing device including a saw blade seat installed in the base and a saw blade installed in the saw blade seat oriented for cutting along the front-rear direction, and a water control assembly including a body unit arranged on the saw blade seat and defining a water inlet and an accommodating space communicating with the water inlet, a water outlet unit arranged on the body unit and communicating with the accommodating space, and a body unit arranged at a first control unit of the body unit. An inlet water flow enters the accommodating space through the water inlet, and then flows out through the water outlet unit to form an outlet water flow spraying on the saw blade. The first control unit is used to regulate one of the size and position of the outlet water flow.

A worktable assembly for tile cutter includes a first table having a first surface and a slot recessed on the first surface and extending along a processing axis, and a second table installed in the first table and including a main body and an insertion member protruding from the main body along the processing axis and extending into the slot and having an insertion surface flush with the first surface. The second table can move relative to the first table along the processing axis, so that the main body is close to or far from the first table. The present invention provides better support through the cooperation of the slot and the insertion member and helps prevent the tile from breaking during processing.

A tile cutter with water guiding device includes a base, a work platform slidably set on the base along a front-rear direction and including a top bearing surface for placing the tiles and an accommodating slot set from the top bearing surface toward a bottom surface, a sawing device including a saw blade seat installed in the base and a saw blade installed in the saw blade seat and aligned with the accommodating slot, and a water guiding device detachably installed in the accommodating slot and including two connecting plates spaced apart along a left-right direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction, a plurality of baffle plates arranged at intervals along the front-rear direction and respectively connected to the connecting plates and a plurality of water guide holes defined by a spacing of the connecting plates and the baffle plates. These baffle plates can block the cooling water and prevent splashing, so as to keep the workplace clean.
