The Northwood Raptor SawJet - Limestone Cutting Preset is a production-ready DXF template engineered for cnc-presets fabrication projects. At standard dimensions, this template addresses the specific requirements of professional stone fabrication with accurate CNC-ready geometry. Fabricators benefit from standardized dimensions that reduce setup time and improve consistency. This template represents proven configurations used daily in professional fabrication shops.
Installation Overview
The fabrication process for the Northwood Raptor SawJet - Limestone Cutting Preset begins with DXF template verification and material selection. Import the template geometry into your CAM software, setting appropriate tool paths for the cnc-presets specifications. Select diamond tooling rated for the specific stone material being processed. CNC cutting should proceed in stages: roughing passes followed by finishing passes at full depth. Maintain proper coolant flow throughout all machining operations. After all pieces are cut, perform any required edge finishing or polishing operations. Transport pieces to the installation site using appropriate lifting equipment and A-frame racks. On-site, verify cabinet or substrate preparation meets installation requirements. Apply adhesive in the recommended pattern and set pieces beginning with the largest section. Complete all joints with color-matched epoxy. Allow full cure time before loading the installation with fixtures or appliances. Seal all exposed surfaces with an appropriate stone sealer.
CNC Cutting Notes
Optimal CNC settings for the Northwood Raptor SawJet - Limestone Cutting Preset template depend on the substrate material. For natural granite, use 4000-5500 RPM with 30-50 IPM feed. For quartz composites, increase to 5500-7000 RPM at 45-65 IPM. The northwood profile requires careful attention to entry and exit points on the toolpath to prevent edge chipping. Program multiple depth passes rather than a single full-depth cut. Coolant temperature should remain below 70°F for optimal diamond tool performance. Dress profiling wheels after every 20-30 linear feet of cutting to maintain profile accuracy.
Material Compatibility
The Northwood Raptor SawJet - Limestone Cutting Preset template works exceptionally well with natural granite, providing clean edges that polish to a high gloss. Marble is also compatible, though the softer stone requires reduced feed rates during CNC operations to prevent micro-chipping. Quartzite offers excellent results with this profile, as the hard mineral structure holds fine details well. Engineered quartz composites are ideal substrates, offering consistent material properties that produce predictable results. Soapstone and slate can be profiled using this template with appropriate tooling adjustments. For limestone, use conservative CNC parameters due to the stone's tendency to chip on detailed profiles. Porcelain sintered stone panels require specialized diamond tooling but produce excellent results with the northwood geometry.
