I have a customer interested in this product, but Im not familiar with it. Can anyone tell me if it can be cut on a bridgesaw or run on a CNC with normal tooling? Fill me in if you can
Cheers

Re: Question on ECO TERR
Its just Terrazzo slabs.
Bridge saw should be fine.
Cnc questionable dependent on what your doing.
Concave edges I'd think no problem.
It's similar to crappy es.
We did a large inlay pattern that Boyd Waterjet for us(not excitedly
)and it ran out on it fine.
We did have to fill lots of pinholes in it.

Re: Question on ECO TERR
Yep you will be filling holes sanding and filling holes. This is natural with this type of material. Price accordingly! Also I believe that it is a cement based product so I am not sure if it will hurt your alum bed on the CNC or not. I have heard some horror stories so I never really pushed it on the CNC.

Re: Question on ECO TERR
We have fabricated quite a bit of this material. It fabricates and polishes fairly easy. We ran it on the CNC without problem just make sure you wash the table down thoroughly after every table. It is FRAGILE and will break easily.

Re: Question on ECO TERR
Is this like icestone? Sounds like it, if so make sure you seal the slab before you cut it. I know the color in ice stone will bleed out when wet.

Re: Question on ECO TERR
If it's Eco by Cosentino then it fabs the same as Silestone/Quartz. Nothing special.
Be careful not to scratch the surface though, because you probably won't be able to polish it out if you do.
