石(shi)(shi)(shi)材(cai)加工機械歷(li)史(shi)悠久，地(di)球上自有(you)人(ren)類(lei)活動以來，就有(you)石(shi)(shi)(shi)材(cai)加工，以至(zhi)于考古(gu)學家把遠(yuan)古(gu)人(ren)類(lei)日子的(de)(de)年代劃分為舊(jiu)(jiu)石(shi)(shi)(shi)器(qi)(qi)時代和(he)新石(shi)(shi)(shi)器(qi)(qi)時代。在(zai)長(chang)達(da)250萬年的(de)(de)舊(jiu)(jiu)石(shi)(shi)(shi)器(qi)(qi)時代，石(shi)(shi)(shi)器(qi)(qi)是人(ren)類(lei)的(de)(de)首要勞(lao)動東(dong)西(xi)。距今8 000年前，人(ren)類(lei)開端以磨(mo)制的(de)(de)石(shi)(shi)(shi)斧、石(shi)(shi)(shi)錛、石(shi)(shi)(shi)鑿和(he)石(shi)(shi)(shi)鏟(chan)，琢制的(de)(de)磨(mo)盤和(he)打制的(de)(de)石(shi)(shi)(shi)錘、石(shi)(shi)(shi)片(pian)、石(shi)(shi)(shi)器(qi)(qi)為首要東(dong)西(xi)。后來，跟著金屬東(dong)西(xi)的(de)(de)呈(cheng)現，人(ren)類(lei)逐步把握了各種石(shi)(shi)(shi)材(cai)的(de)(de)挖(wa)掘和(he)加工的(de)(de)辦法。

　　石材毛板加工(gong)開始選用(yong)(yong)擺式砂(sha)(sha)鋸(ju)，鋸(ju)機構造(zao)選用(yong)(yong)繩子吊掛，進給系統靠(kao)(kao)重(zhong)(zhong)力配重(zhong)(zhong)完結。鋸(ju)條張(zhang)緊(jin)(jin)組織靠(kao)(kao)楔形塊張(zhang)緊(jin)(jin)。磨(mo)料首要選用(yong)(yong)河砂(sha)(sha)，由(you)人(ren)工(gong)上砂(sha)(sha)和加水完結。鋸(ju)割的(de)板材尺度(du)小，厚度(du)不均勻 ，外表粗(cu)糙度(du)很大(da) 。加工(gong)技(ji)術(shu)比較簡略、商(shang)品單一、勞(lao)動強(qiang)度(du)大(da)、質(zhi)量較差。

　　在工(gong)業革(ge)(ge)新曾經，一切(qie)石(shi)(shi)(shi)材挖掘和加工(gong)都是用手藝(yi)完(wan)結的。直到19世(shi)紀 ，歐洲才呈現了第一臺用于加工(gong)石(shi)(shi)(shi)材的機(ji)械，這給石(shi)(shi)(shi)材加工(gong)職業帶來了一場革(ge)(ge)新。石(shi)(shi)(shi)材機(ji)械創造今后(hou)，石(shi)(shi)(shi)材加工(gong)才從深(shen)重(zhong)的體力勞動中擺脫出(chu)來。從此,石(shi)(shi)(shi)材加工(gong)開(kai)端從手藝(yi)操作向(xiang)機(ji)械化方(fang)向(xiang)開(kai)展。

　　跟著(zhu)石(shi)材加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)設備和加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)東西的(de)開展，呈現了金剛石(shi)構造(zao)鋸(ju)(ju)機，用來對大(da)理石(shi)荒料進行毛板加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong) 。其(qi)進給組織和張緊構造(zao)選用液壓式，一起鋸(ju)(ju)框選用平(ping)移式。花崗巖構造(zao)砂鋸(ju)(ju)選用同步絲(si)杠(gang)進給構造(zao)，加(jia)(jia)砂系統(tong)選用主(zhu)動混(hun)料噴(pen)砂及噴(pen)水系統(tong)，加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)功率和加(jia)(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)質量得到較大(da)進步。 

　　石(shi)(shi)材(cai)(cai)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)設(she)(she)備(bei)跟著(zhu)新技術(shu)(shu)的呈(cheng)現(xian)而(er)得(de)到(dao)不斷開(kai)展，一(yi)(yi)起其加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)技術(shu)(shu)也得(de)到(dao)不斷進步。石(shi)(shi)材(cai)(cai)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)從(cong)(cong)(cong)板(ban)材(cai)(cai)向(xiang)(xiang)(xiang)異型開(kai)展 ，隨(sui)(sui)之呈(cheng)現(xian)圓弧板(ban)切機、圓弧板(ban)磨機、石(shi)(shi)線(xian)切機、數控(kong)雕刻機等一(yi)(yi)系列異型石(shi)(shi)材(cai)(cai)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)設(she)(she)備(bei)。石(shi)(shi)材(cai)(cai)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)設(she)(she)備(bei)也隨(sui)(sui)科學(xue)技術(shu)(shu)的開(kai)展而(er)不斷完善和更新，從(cong)(cong)(cong)簡略電氣(qi)操(cao)控(kong)向(xiang)(xiang)(xiang)PLC操(cao)控(kong)和數控(kong)方(fang)向(xiang)(xiang)(xiang)開(kai)展。加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)辦法(fa)也從(cong)(cong)(cong)機械加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)向(xiang)(xiang)(xiang)高(gao)壓磨料水加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)、激光加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)、火(huo)焰加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)、噴砂加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)等方(fang)向(xiang)(xiang)(xiang)開(kai)展。輔佐設(she)(she)備(bei)也從(cong)(cong)(cong)單一(yi)(yi)機械裝(zhuang)置向(xiang)(xiang)(xiang)數控(kong)化(hua)和智能化(hua)方(fang)向(xiang)(xiang)(xiang)開(kai)展。

　　20世紀(ji)(ji)中(zhong)葉(xie)，石(shi)(shi)材(cai)機(ji)械化出產加工設備(bei)在德國(guo)、法(fa)國(guo) 、西(xi)班牙等歐(ou)洲國(guo)家得到迅速開展 ，推動了石(shi)(shi)材(cai)加工機(ji)械的(de)技術(shu)進步 。20世紀(ji)(ji)80年代后期 ，憑仗優(you)(you)質的(de)優(you)(you)勢(shi) ，意大利成為國(guo)際石(shi)(shi)材(cai)機(ji)械制作業的(de)發達國(guo)家。今后，亞洲的(de)日本、中(zhong)國(guo)臺灣 、中(zhong)國(guo)大陸也(ye)誕生了許多優(you)(you)異的(de)石(shi)(shi)材(cai)配備(bei)公(gong)司 。

　　自1980年今后，中國(guo)石(shi)材機(ji)械制(zhi)作業不斷(duan)引(yin)進(jin)學習先進(jin)國(guo)家技術 ，已開始形成了完整的(de)石(shi)材加(jia)工(gong)機(ji)械制(zhi)作系統(tong) ，制(zhi)作技術水(shui)平與國(guo)際水(shui)平的(de)距離正在迅(xun)速縮短(duan) ，中國(guo)正逐步成為石(shi)材機(ji)械制(zhi)作強國(guo) 。
