Installation Overview
The Multi-Family Apartment Studio Kitchen - 84" Wide layout installation requires systematic execution from templating through final placement. Start by verifying field conditions match the 84" width, 25" depth template specifications. For commercial hospitality size projects, confirm utility rough-in locations align with the template's sink and cooktop cutout positions if applicable. Program the CNC to cut all pieces from the DXF file, nesting pieces efficiently on the slab to maximize material yield. The apartment-studio configuration typically requires careful attention to corner joints and seam alignment. During fabrication, label each piece with its position reference from the template. On-site installation begins with dry-fitting all pieces on the cabinets, checking for proper alignment and overhang dimensions. Apply silicone adhesive in a grid pattern on cabinet tops, then set pieces in order. Use vacuum lifters for safe handling of large sections. Complete seam joints with color-matched epoxy while maintaining slight downward pressure via seam setters. Allow 24 hours cure time before use.
CNC Cutting Notes
Optimal CNC settings for the Multi-Family Apartment Studio Kitchen - 84" Wide 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 apartment-studio 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 Multi-Family Apartment Studio Kitchen - 84" Wide profile pairs best with medium-to-hard natural stones and engineered materials. Granite is the ideal substrate, offering the hardness needed to maintain the apartment-studio geometry while accepting a brilliant polish. Quartz composites provide consistent results with minimal tool wear variation. For softer stones like marble or limestone, the profile remains achievable but requires adjusted CNC parameters and additional care during finishing. Exotic stones such as quartzite and super-white dolomite produce stunning results with this profile. Sintered stone panels are compatible when using specialized thin-material tooling. Always perform a test cut on representative material before beginning production runs.
