Starting with blocks of Bluestone quarried in their raw form, we bring the blocks to our production shop to start the process. We run multiple diamond tip bladed gantry saws along with one 36" specialty saw over a turntable. We use vacuum lifts in our burning and chopping process to ensure safety, quality and efficiency.
Your Bluestone is produced by first putting large blocks under our 7'6" gantry saw, which are cut into 24" 18" or 12" chunks called billets. The billets are then moved to our 5'4" gantry saw with our skid steers for the slabbing process. We program the saw to rip the cubes to the desired thickness. The stone is unloaded and moved to the burn building, where it is Thermaled/burned (if required) by a combination of liquid oxygen and propane. Finally, the slabs are sent to our precision rip and chop line to be cut into the desired dimensions. There is a final QC check while being palletized and staged for shipping so it can make its way to you!
