The Alpha Tools ESC-250 is a 6″ wet/dry electric stone cutter built for professional stone fabrication and installation. It features a powerful 1,200 W motor, an integrated water feed system, and a built-in dust gate to provide clean, precise cuts in natural stone, engineered stone, porcelain, concrete, and similar hard materials while effectively managing slurry and dust.
Alpha® introduced a new electric stone cutter, called the ESC-150, which is equipped with a powerful motor capable of cutting 1-1/4” (3cm) stone slabs in one pass. In addition, Alpha® recognized the need for a quality electric portable stone cutter that is capable of miter cutting of 1-1/4” (3cm) materials with ease, so that any stone fabricator can use it when miter cuts are required, without the time-consuming setup. Also, it is great for sink-hole cutting and groove-cutting for rodding applications.
The ESC-150 includes a kink-free water hose for improved maneuverability of the stone cutter. The flexibility of the hose helps reduce operator fatigue and improves the operation. The Alpha® ESC-150 comes with a built-in dust gate, making it dustless when connected to a HEPA vacuum. It can utilize a variety of consumables including the Alpha® Katana 6” for porcelain panels and slabs, Hot-Rod 4” for 1/4” steel rods and 1/8” fiber glass rods.
For marble applications, a Libero 5” blade is recommended, since most marble slabs are 3/4” (2cm) thick or less. Alpha® offers a carriage assembly that fits on the Alpha® Guide Rail System to support the application of making precise miter cuts for the perfect lamination.
