Fabricators seeking precision for double edge work will find the Double Ogee Edge Profile (Marble) - 3cm+2cm Laminated template indispensable. At standard dimensions, this DXF profile is optimized for CNC router operations across multiple stone types. The geometry accounts for standard tooling clearances and finish passes required in professional countertop fabrication. Whether working with marble or engineered alternatives, this template ensures uniform results across an entire project. Shop managers appreciate the time savings from eliminating manual layout work, and the double profile remains one of the most requested designs in residential and commercial projects.
Installation Overview
The Double Ogee Edge Profile (Marble) - 3cm+2cm Laminated edge fabrication process begins with verifying slab thickness matches the template specifications. Load the DXF profile into your CNC control software, setting the origin point at the slab edge. For marble, select diamond tooling rated for the stone hardness. The roughing sequence should remove material in 3-4 progressive passes to avoid excessive tool wear. Use climb milling direction for cleaner edges on the double profile. Maintain consistent coolant flow throughout all cutting operations. After CNC profiling, inspect the edge against the template geometry using a profile gauge. Hand finishing starts with 50-grit diamond pads, working through the standard progression to 3000 grit. The double profile may require specialty polishing pads for concave sections. Apply masking tape along the countertop surface adjacent to the edge during polishing to prevent surface scratches. Finish with an appropriate stone sealer that penetrates without altering the stone's appearance.
CNC Cutting Notes
For the Double Ogee Edge Profile (Marble) - 3cm+2cm Laminated profile, set your CNC router spindle speed between 5000-7000 RPM for marble 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 double 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 Double Ogee Edge Profile (Marble) - 3cm+2cm Laminated profile pairs best with medium-to-hard natural stones and engineered materials. Granite is the ideal substrate, offering the hardness needed to maintain the double 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.
