Installation Overview
The Galley Kitchen Standard Depth Galley - 72" layout installation requires systematic execution from templating through final placement. Start by verifying field conditions match the 25.5" depth template specifications. For kitchen galley 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 galley 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
CNC programming for the Galley Kitchen Standard Depth Galley - 72" should account for tool wear compensation, especially on abrasive dolomite stones. Recommended parameters: spindle speed 4500-6500 RPM, feed rate 35-55 IPM for roughing. The galley 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 Galley Kitchen Standard Depth Galley - 72" profile pairs best with medium-to-hard natural stones and engineered materials. Granite is the ideal substrate, offering the hardness needed to maintain the galley 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.
