Installation Overview
Installing the Multi-Family Apartment 1BR Kitchen - Standard countertop layout begins with thorough field measurement verification. Compare the DXF template dimensions against the actual cabinet configuration, noting any deviations. For commercial hospitality installations, ensure all base cabinets are level within 1/8" across the full span. Transfer the template geometry to the stone slab using CNC programming software, optimizing material placement for minimal waste. Cut primary pieces first, followed by any seam sections. For apartment-1br configurations, plan seam locations at areas of minimum stress and maximum visual concealment. During installation, apply adhesive to the cabinet tops using a continuous bead pattern. Position the first section and check for level before proceeding. Joint seams using color-matched epoxy, clamping pieces together with seam setters. Allow full cure time before removing clamps. Apply supports beneath any overhanging sections exceeding 6 inches. Finish by sealing all surfaces and edges with an appropriate stone sealer.
CNC Cutting Notes
For the Multi-Family Apartment 1BR Kitchen - Standard profile, set your CNC router spindle speed between 5000-7000 RPM for dolomite substrates. Use a feed rate of 40-60 IPM for roughing passes and reduce to 20-30 IPM for finishing passes. Select a diamond-tipped profile bit matching the template radius specifications. Program the toolpath using climb milling for cleaner cuts on the apartment-1br geometry. Maintain coolant flow at 2+ GPM to prevent thermal fracturing. For harder stones like granite, reduce feed rates by 20% and increase water flow. Run a test cut on scrap material to verify the profile matches the DXF template before committing to production stock.
Material Compatibility
The Multi-Family Apartment 1BR Kitchen - Standard 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 apartment-1br geometry.
