Installation Overview
Installing the Restaurant Prep Station - Premium Finish 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 restaurant-prep 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
CNC programming for the Restaurant Prep Station - Premium Finish should account for tool wear compensation, especially on abrasive granite stones. Recommended parameters: spindle speed 4500-6500 RPM, feed rate 35-55 IPM for roughing. The restaurant-prep geometry benefits from a two-pass strategy — rough to within 2mm of final profile, then finish at reduced feed rate (15-25 IPM). Use plunge rates no faster than 10 IPM to prevent tool breakage. Monitor vibration levels during cutting; excessive chatter indicates tool wear or incorrect speed/feed settings. Keep backup tooling on hand for production runs exceeding 50 linear feet of edge profile.
Material Compatibility
The Restaurant Prep Station - Premium Finish profile pairs best with medium-to-hard natural stones and engineered materials. Granite is the ideal substrate, offering the hardness needed to maintain the restaurant-prep 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.
