Tile Saws

Tile Cutting Saw — a Table Saw for Wall Tiles, Porcelain Stoneware and Granite

A tile cutting saw, also called a tile table saw or a tile cutting table saw, is a stationary machine that cuts ceramic tiles with a thin diamond blade rotating in a water bath. The tile is guided along the table on a precise rail, while water cools the blade and binds dust when cutting porcelain stoneware and granite. The cutting range runs from standard wall tiles to large-format tiles of 60x120 cm and bigger.

At NORWIT.PL we carry tile cutting saws primarily from Norton Clipper, Husqvarna Construction and Dr. Schulze, alongside our wider range of construction table saws, block saws and saws for refractory materials. Below: matching blade and motor power to the material, water cooling, rail length for large-format tiles, and the difference from a hand-held tile cutter.

Types of Tile Cutting Saws — Segments in the NORWIT.PL Range

Tile cutting saws differ in table size, motor power and the ability to cut at an angle.

You'll find the full range of construction table saws in the parent category table saws.

Matching Motor Power and Blade Diameter to the Material

The harder the material, the larger the blade and the more power a clean cut requires. Wall and floor tiles are soft ceramics, porcelain stoneware is considerably harder, and granite demands the most power.

A blade for porcelain stoneware needs a finer, turbo-type rim than a blade for hollow blocks — a segmented construction blade will chip the glaze.

Water Cooling and Rail Length — What to Check

A professional tile cutting saw works with water cooling almost without exception: a tank holding roughly a dozen litres and a submersible pump keep the blade wet throughout the cut. Water cools the diamond rim, binds silica dust when cutting porcelain stoneware and granite, and extends blade life several times over compared with dry cutting — water cooling on a tile saw is the standard, not an optional extra.

The second parameter is rail length. Large-format tiles, such as 60x120 cm or 90x180 cm porcelain stoneware, need a rail at least as long as the tile's longer side — typically 60–130 cm. A shorter rail forces stage cutting and reduces precision. Standard wall tiles only need a 60–80 cm rail.

Table Tile Cutter, Hand-Held Tile Cutter and Construction Table Saw — the Differences

All three tools cut with a diamond blade, but differ in how the material is guided, in accuracy and in intended use.

A hand-held cutter suits one or two occasional cuts but won't cut a large-format tile or porcelain stoneware straight. A block saw is too coarse for thin ceramics — its segmented blade chips the glaze.
