The Paladin is a large, open format, 3-axis, high-rail gantry stone milling machine. The system is designed as a wash-down machine that comes in two table sizes: 8’ X 14’ or 8’ x 16’.
For rapid and effective polishing, there's no better choice than the Paladin. Its substantial, heavy-duty table provides the flexibility to load it with a full array of materials, start the process, and then walk away, confident that it will expertly finish countertops, vanities, and various other surfaces.

It starts with steel. The Paladin is 24,000 pounds of American Iron. It’s not just the weight, it’s how it’s put together. Visit BBM’s factory in Kentucky and see for yourself!
The Paladin utilizes FANUC servo controllers and servo drives. FANUC controls are globally recognized for high-reliability, high precision, high-speed & simple operation. With a 52 Year mean time between failure, they lead the controls world with reliability.
Repeatability matters if you want years of precision. The advantage of precision ball screws becomes more apparent as the machine ages. Ball screws do a much better job maintaining accuracy and preventing gear lashing over time. Simply a better way to build a machine.
Nope…it’s not plastic. And it’s not thin. And it will last the life of the machine and provide a solid flat surface to support pods and parts. BBM precision mills the table surface to insure a truly flat surface on your machine. That’s the correct way to do it.
Large workable aluminum table allows you to process an entire kitchen at once. Providing more production capacity.
Paladin boasts the largest bearings for any CNC router in the stone industry. This matters, because larger, more heavy-duty bearings last longer and operate with more precision.
The Paladin comes standard with AlphaCam CAD/CAM. Already have a CNC router in your business? No problem… the Paladin can be programmed with the same programming language as all major CNC brands in the stone industry.
We spent considerable time choosing our 21.5-inch-wide touch screen, button layout and overall ergonomics of the control unit. The BBM HMI (Human Machine Interface) was developed by BBM engineers to make operating the machine an intuitive logical process. The information you need in fresh modern easy to understand layout.
The Paladin Z-axis tool plate cover is held securely in place by rubberized retention knobs. The weight of the cover is lifted with automotive supports protecting the counter-balance system, spindle and associated hardware. Protection and easy access, it’s easy to do both.
The rotary union is a part that will need occasional replacing. On many machines designs this task is a serious chore. Our engineers designed the Paladin to ensure this task can be done in minutes, not hours. User maintenance should be easy and fast.
The Paladin comes standard with automated lubrication sending consistent oil to the bearings and ways. In a dusty gritty shop this system protects your investment and insures long life and peak performance. User maintenance really should be minimized if possible.
It might seem strange to mention covering bearings and ways with bellows. It is an important detail that some manufactures simply don’t think matters. Protecting ways and bearings are critical in a dusty gritty stone shop.
The Paladin comes standard with 44 tool positions. More positions equal more profile sets on the machine and less messing around swapping out tooling. 44 Tool Positions includes five full profile sets with 7 tools in each set – along with the utility tools. There are 30 positions for tools 80mm or less and 14 positions for tools 120mm or less.

The Paladin comes equipped with 45MM bearings, making it the largest bearings in the industry. Larger bearings ensure smooth traversing, less toroidal & axial play, and much longer life. When you start looking at the details you will come to understand that all machines are NOT created equal.
The Paladin utilizes FANUC servo controllers and servo drives. FANUC controls are globally recognized for high-reliability, high precision, high-speed & simple operation. With a 52 Year mean time between failure, they lead the controls world with reliability.
The large 1.5” thick aluminum work surface (14’ x 8’ or 16'x 8') allows the operator to process an entire slab-worth of countertops in one setup. The large bed reduces table changeovers, increases spindle-on time, and maximizes machine output and performance.
