Sigma wet saws - Tile Advice

[Sigma UK]

The 9P is around the £700 or so all the way up to £1600 for the 10M9. We do have the mini jolly which is alot cheaper but it's not like the other machines. I would say to anyone take a look if you can or get some feedback from another tiler who uses or has used the Sigma cutter for a honest view.

Standard with all our machines comes a top end diamond blade so no need to purchase or upgrade your blade. They don't have any pumps to get clogged up and the motors are solid.

Know a tiler who has been using a 9P for the last 15 years or so and all it's needed has been a new blade every few years. The 10M is the one to go for if it's sheer grunt you're after, 9P isn't overly powerful but good well built reliable saw.

What size tile does the 9P cut....

 

[Sigma UK]

I have the loan 9P machine out now and the tiler using it is cutting the meter long "wood" style porcelain tiles from Porcelanosa with no problems. Including mitred cuts.

The reason I asked was it was stated on a site that it cut 430mm tiles, did'nt seem right.

 

[Sigma UK]

Yeah its a funny one. When i first looked at the brochure it doesn't do them jutice. The matt size is 43 etc.. but they cut can cut most sizes with no problem. you just need to push it through.

 

[Peter]

The rule is 430mm at the furthest but if you remove the rule ffrom the table then you ccan cut unlimited.

just seen this.
i havea 9m and a 10m and have had them for probably over 15 years and still going.
havent been able to pull the top of table off for some years though.
trimline put in special order for me for the 10m.
i was looking at other saws recently with them and trimline were best priced of everyone for raimondi zoe so they are worth calling about sigma.
if you have a few mins ed, could you call me as i want advice on which sigma snap cutter to go for and i know you love your tools

One thing about the 10M9 i have to say is that it's not a small cutter. Although its compact unless you built like Arnold swarfega then its a two man job. It arrives on its own pallet and although the design is simple all the weight is down to the 3hp Induction motor. It has a 300/330 blade good for 1500sqm of porc and will let you cut unlimited lengths using the top guide rail. There is no blade wobble or overheating with these machines and there all built to last a long time.

If i didn't have the Dewalt saw then i would deffo have a 10m saw... really impressed with the vid's i have watched on them.

They are nice Dave. Real strong piece of kit to have but if your mainly doing porc then it might be a bit too much. Most of the people who own one of these do mainly granite, Marble and stone. Cutting porc on this is like cutting ceramics.

 

[DHTiling]

majority of my work is with stone ...

 

[Sigma UK]

I'm going to send one up to you Dave to test. Let me know what you think of it.
