Installation Overview
The Large Chamfer Edge Profile - 2cm 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 quartzite, 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 large 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 large 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
CNC programming for the Large Chamfer Edge Profile - 2cm should account for tool wear compensation, especially on abrasive quartzite stones. Recommended parameters: spindle speed 4500-6500 RPM, feed rate 35-55 IPM for roughing. The large 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 Large Chamfer Edge Profile - 2cm profile pairs best with medium-to-hard natural stones and engineered materials. Granite is the ideal substrate, offering the hardness needed to maintain the large 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.
