5-Axis Waterjet (also cuts stone) Questions
Answers to common questions about the 5-Axis Waterjet (also cuts stone).
Typically 12-14 weeks from order given the 5-axis head; we confirm the exact date at order.
A 600V/3-phase, 100A service and a steady water supply for the intensifier pump and tank; we confirm exact water quality and volume requirements during the site survey.
Budget for #80 garnet abrasive consumption based on your cutting hours and material — our applications engineers estimate a monthly abrasive budget from your typical parts mix.

4-axis stone CNC machining centre
LC-4 Profiler
The LC-4 Profiler takes a countertop from a sawn blank to a finished, polished part without moving it between machines. A 12-position automatic tool changer swaps router bits, profile wheels and polishing pads through one program, so a sink cut-out, its finished edge profile and its polish all happen in one clamping. The automatic 6-step polishing spindle grades from rough to gloss without an operator swapping pads by hand, and the Lithocore Vein control ships with sink-cutout templates for common basin models already loaded. A combination vacuum-and-mechanical table handles both standard slab thicknesses and the odd panel that vacuum alone won't hold. Tollaston proves your edge profiles and sink templates on your own slab at the Vaughan Tech Centre and trains your fabricators on the tool library before handover.

LC5-4500 Titan
The LC5-4500 Titan scales up the Profiler's edge-to-polish workflow to architectural stone and monument work, where slabs run larger and details run deeper. A swivel head tilts ±110° on a continuous rotary axis, reaching the compound angles that relief carving and shaped monument faces need without hand-finishing. The sectional vacuum-and-mechanical table extends to handle oversized slate and stone panels that would overhang a standard bed, and a 16-position tool changer carries both roughing bits and the 8-step automatic polishing spindle through one program. The Lithocore Vein control's relief-carving toolpaths turn a 3D model directly into a carved stone surface. Tollaston's applications engineers program and prove your first large-format or carved job at the Vaughan Tech Centre before the machine ships.
