YTMDP-1200/3+3+10 Porcelain Tile 45° Bevel Edge Polishing Machine

PRODUCT DETAILS

Product introduction

The YTMDP-1200/3+3+10 is an industrial porcelain tile 45 degree bevel edge polishing machine designed for continuous, single-edge processing. It combines three squaring heads, three fixed 45° chamfering heads and ten polishing heads in one production sequence. Each tile edge is calibrated, formed into a controlled bevel and progressively polished during conveyor feeding.

The machine processes tiles from 80 to 1200 mm wide and 6 to 20 mm thick. Its adjustable working speed of 4–8 m/min supports batch processing while allowing the operator to coordinate feed speed with tile hardness, incoming edge condition, bevel depth and the required finish.

What Does the YTMDP-1200/3+3+10 Machine Do?

The machine performs three essential edge-finishing stages: squaring, 45° chamfering and bevel polishing. It is intended for porcelain and ceramic tiles that require a straight reference edge and a consistent polished 45 degree tile edge.

Unlike equipment used only for rough edge removal, this configuration prepares and finishes the bevel in a continuous process. The three squaring heads establish the edge geometry, the three chamfering heads form the 45° bevel, and the ten polishing heads progressively refine the chamfered surface.

The result depends on the tile material, initial edge condition, wheel specification, abrasive sequence, feed speed and required surface quality. A processing test is recommended before confirming settings for a new material or production specification.

3+3+10 Edge Processing Sequence

1. Three-Head Edge Squaring

The first three heads grind and calibrate the selected tile edge. This stage removes dimensional irregularities and establishes a straight reference surface before the bevel is formed.

Correct squaring is important because an uneven incoming edge can affect bevel width and polishing consistency. In this processing stage, the machine functions as a tile edge squaring machine within the complete production sequence.

2. Three-Head 45° Chamfering

After squaring, the tile passes through three chamfering stations equipped with 200 mm wheels. These heads progressively remove material and form the required 45° edge.

Using three dedicated chamfering heads distributes the material-removal process across several stations. The settings should be matched to tile hardness, thickness, incoming edge condition and the required bevel depth.

This section gives the machine the function of a tile edge grinding and chamfering machine while preparing a stable surface for the following polishing stages.

3. Ten-Head Progressive Bevel Polishing

Ten polishing heads progressively refine the chamfered surface. The polishing sequence removes grinding marks left by the previous stages and produces a smoother, more consistent bevel finish.

The ten-head polishing section uses 95 mm wheels to refine the chamfered surface through progressive abrasive stages. Abrasive selection and polishing order should be determined according to porcelain or ceramic tile composition, surface coating and the required final appearance.

4. Continuous Conveyor Feeding

A 300 mm conveyor belt carries the tile through the squaring, chamfering and polishing stations at a controlled speed. The working speed is adjustable from 4 to 8 m/min.

This continuous-feed design reduces manual transfer between separate operations and supports repeatable 45° edge polishing for compatible tile specifications.

Main Processing Advantages

• Integrates edge squaring, 45° chamfering and bevel polishing in one continuous sequence.

• Uses a 3+3+10 head configuration for dedicated edge preparation and progressive polishing.

• Processes porcelain and ceramic tiles from 80 to 1200 mm wide.

• Supports tile thicknesses from 6 to 20 mm.

• Provides an adjustable working speed of 4–8 m/min.

• Processes one selected tile edge during each pass.

• Reduces repeated handling between individual grinding, chamfering and polishing operations.

• Supports continuous batch production with consistent machine settings.

• Allows wheel and abrasive selection to be matched to the tile material and required finish.

The YTMDP-1200/3+3+10 combines tile squaring, chamfering and polishing instead of performing only one isolated edge-finishing operation.

For continuous production, the machine can be connected to a three-blade CNC tile cutting machine and transition conveyors, combining tile cutting, edge squaring, 45° chamfering and bevel polishing in one production line.

Suitable Tile Materials

The machine is primarily designed for:

• Porcelain tiles

• Ceramic tiles

• Glazed ceramic tiles

• Polished ceramic tiles

Material hardness, body composition, glaze condition and tile thickness can affect the recommended wheel specification, polishing abrasives and working speed. New materials should be tested before continuous batch production.

For porcelain processing, the machine provides automatic 45° bevel preparation and polishing. For ceramic products, suitable wheels and abrasives can be selected for edge grinding, chamfering and polishing.

Special tile materials or coatings should not be placed into batch production until sample processing confirms edge quality, bevel consistency and abrasive compatibility.

Typical Production Applications

The YTMDP-1200/3+3+10 is suitable for factories and processing workshops producing tiles that require a polished 45° bevel edge. Typical applications include:

• Porcelain tiles prepared for 45° corner assembly

• Ceramic wall and floor tile edge finishing

• Tiles requiring calibrated edges before chamfering

• Decorative tile components with polished bevel edges

• Batch production of consistent single-edge bevels

• Tile components used for external corner details

• Continuous processing of repeated tile specifications

The machine grinds and polishes the bevel rather than simply forming a rough angled edge. This makes it suitable where the appearance and consistency of the finished bevel are important.

Technical Specifications

Actual output and finishing results may vary according to tile material, incoming edge quality, bevel depth, wheel condition, abrasive sequence, feed speed and operator settings.

Why Use a 3+3+10 Configuration?

The 3+3+10 configuration separates the process into three clearly defined stages. Three squaring heads prepare the reference edge, three chamfering heads form the bevel, and ten polishing heads refine the finished surface.

This arrangement is suitable for production where edge preparation is important before polishing. It also makes the processing sequence easier to evaluate because the operator can inspect the result of each functional stage and adjust the corresponding wheels, abrasives or feed speed.

The machine should be selected according to the actual tile specification and required bevel finish, rather than only by the total number of heads.

Single-Edge Processing

The YTMDP-1200/3+3+10 processes one selected 45° bevel edge during each pass. If more than one edge requires the same finish, the tile must be reoriented and fed through the machine again.

This configuration is suitable for repeated batch production where the same edge specification is processed continuously. Before production begins, operators should confirm the feeding direction, reference surface, bevel depth and required finished orientation.

Factors That Affect the Finished Edge

Tile Material

Porcelain and ceramic tiles differ in hardness, density and surface coating. These differences influence wheel selection, abrasive sequence and working speed.

Incoming Edge Condition

A chipped, uneven or dimensionally inconsistent edge may require more squaring before a uniform bevel can be formed.

Bevel Depth

A deeper bevel removes more material and may require adjusted chamfering settings or a lower feed speed.

Polishing Requirements

The required surface finish determines the polishing sequence. A functional bevel and a visually refined bevel may require different abrasives and machine settings.

Wheel and Abrasive Condition

Worn or unsuitable wheels can reduce bevel accuracy and surface consistency. Consumables should be inspected and replaced according to processing performance.

Feed Speed

The listed working speed is 4–8 m/min, but the appropriate production setting depends on the material, bevel depth and required finish. Maximum speed should not be used as the only measure of production quality.
