Abstract

Automated machining of various stone made products such as tiles, statues, machine tool and measuring machine beds are expanding and evolving. In case of stone milling processes arises a problem which is that right now there is no objective and generally usable measuring system which would define the characteristics of milled edge chipping. In this paper a qualifying model is introduced that could define the maximal chipping depth and average chipping measure of milled edges of granite products. While the second part of this publication will depict the process of investigation. Volume reduction of the product that happened because of chipped substances on the edges during milling can be defined with the help of this process. During the investigation we used NC controlled stone machining centers, laser scanners and rapid prototyping softwares. During the research we have defined the shape that could replace the chipped parts with great precisions.
