In this episode of Cut This, Polish That, we take a look at fluting, one of the fastest growing trends in the stone industry.
We’re pairing up the industry-leading TITAN® CNC Router with special tooling from Defusco Industrial Supply to fully process fluted surfaces — from roughing all the way through full polishing. Traditionally, even shops with CNC saws still rely heavily on hand polishing to finish fluting projects.
That’s where time, labor, and consistency can take a hit. With the right CNC setup and tooling, fabricators can now produce fluting more efficiently and turn a time consuming process into a scalable offering.
Fluting on the TITAN CNC Router
With easy tool setup, the industry’s largest work area (16’x8′), and precision accuracy – the TITAN is the perfect CNC router to run fluting programs on.
This also demonstrates the power of a CNC router to increase efficiency, reduce manual work, and upsell your countertop offerings. With the TITAN and the right tooling, you can automate the most labor-intensive part of the fluting process and turn potentially days of labor into hours of CNC run time.
This episode is sponsored by Defusco Industrial Supply. It features their tooling set with one incremental bit, three metal tools, and three polishing tools for install-ready fluted work.
