Thibaut TC425: Introducing Precision Cutting for
Modern Stone Fabrication
Australian stonemasons are constantly seeking cutting-edge solutions that enhance accuracy, streamline production, and adapt to a variety of materials, including natural stone, porcelain, and engineered stone. The Thibaut TC425, an advanced 5-axis bridge saw delivers unmatched versatility and efficiency.
The TC425 saw is the only machine in its category with 6 integrated tools for total autonomy: a saw blade, separate core drill, a separate high speed router, Thibaut’s exclusive ACS jig saw (optional) or a second high speed router (optional) and vacuum manipulator to move the sawn pieces, as well as the possibility to produce textured finishes.
CDK Stone is bringing the Thibaut TC425 to the Australian market, introducing stonemasons to a state-of-the-art machine that redefines precision cutting. Manufactured by Thibaut, a global leader in stone machining solutions with over 65 years of expertise, the TC425 is built to handle complex cuts, mitres, and detailed profiling with ease.
Launching at CDK Stone’s Machinery Showcase Event on March 27–28, 2025, the TC425 represents the next evolution in fabrication technology. “The Thibaut TC425 delivers exceptional precision, versatility, and reliability, seamlessly integrating into modern fabrication workflows and setting a new standard for advanced performance.’” said James Clark, Director at CDK Stone.
Advanced Technology for Unmatched Precision
One of the TC425’s standout features is its exclusive ACS jigsaw option; the only bridge saw in its class to offer this advanced capability. This system enables the saw to complete internal rectangular cut-outs and cut to the end of intersecting cuts, significantly reducing the need for manual repositioning. Additionally, the ACS jigsaw can be used to scribe irregular back edges, a task traditionally completed by hand or with a waterjet machine.
To further enhance accuracy, the TC425 is equipped with a crosshair laser, allowing operators to manually set the cutting length by pinpointing the start and end positions. The laser also enables precise measurement of wooden templates placed on the saw table, streamlining layout preparation.
Equipped with both a primary saw spindle and a high-speed routing unit, the TC425 offers exceptional versatility in stone fabrication. The saw spindle delivers powerful and precise cutting performance, while the 10,000 RPM high-speed routing unit, now standard on all models sold by CDK Stone expands functionality beyond cutting. This dedicated routing system enables the use of drills, router cutters, milling cutters, and grooving fingers, while flange-mounted tools such as sizing cutters and texturing brushes enhance versatility.
Seamless Integration with SeKON Software
The Thibaut TC425 T’CUT software with PILOT interface includes all the options required for modern stone processing such as, fully automatic sawing including mitre cutting as well as manual processing, vein matching, a program for cutting UCS materials, multiple users and a post processor for integration with SeKON software. “SeKON software, provides fabricators with greater control over their entire cutting process, across multiple machines from different suppliers. From initial design to final execution, this system enhances precision, improves material utilisation, and streamlines production,” said James Clark, Director at CDK Stone.
Compact Design with Versatile Functionality
The Thibaut TC425 is designed with a compact footprint to fit seamlessly into a variety of workshop layouts. As well as a separate high-speed spindle (standard) and ACS jig saw (optional) the saw comes equipped with a tilting table to facilitate loading, blade measuring device and probe for measuring the slab thickness, a remote pendant control and a blade sharpening station with software for cutting Ultra Compact Materials.
Elevating the Future of Stone Cutting
For Australian stonemasons looking to elevate their cutting capabilities, the Thibaut TC425 offers the perfect blend of power, precision, and efficiency. With its seamless software integration, and versatile functionality, this bridge saw represents the future of modern stone fabrication.
