The RUBI® DC-250 SMART ADVANCE is an electric tile saw designed to automatically adapt cutting performance based on material resistance and blade load. Its electronic control system manages motor speed during the cut to support uniform results, reduced chipping, and consistent finish quality across ceramic, porcelain, and stone materials when used with the appropriate diamond blade.
The saw operates in both manual and automatic modes. Automatic mode applies predefined cutting parameters with four selectable performance profiles to balance cutting speed and finish quality, while manual mode allows full operator control. Integrated electronic protection helps stop the motor if the blade becomes overloaded or binds during operation.
Key Features
- Automatic Cutting Control: Electronic system adjusts motor speed during the cut based on material resistance.
- Manual and Automatic Operating Modes: Supports operator-controlled cutting or assisted cutting with predefined parameters.
- Four Automatic Performance Profiles: Allows selection between higher cutting speed or improved finish quality.
- Electronic Motor Protection: Stops the motor if the blade binds, overloads, or becomes compromised.
- Direct Drive Motor: 1.1 kW motor mounted on sliding bearings for controlled travel and cutting accuracy.
- Plunge and Miter Capability: Folding motor head allows plunge cuts and miter cuts up to 45°.
- Steel Plate Structure: Rigid frame construction designed to support cutting stability.
- ZERO DUST System: Patented RUBI system designed to reduce exposure to respirable dust during cutting.
- Advanced Cooling System: Improves blade cooling efficiency while reducing water dispersion.
- Jobsite Mobility: Foldable legs with wheels and removable tables support transport and cleaning.
