At Bad Lizard Granite & Quartz, quality and precision are at the heart of everything we do. When it comes to crafting beautiful, durable stone countertops, one of our secret weapons is CNC technology. If you’ve followed us on social media, you’ve probably seen our impressive CNC machine in action—and it’s no wonder our followers love watching it!
But what exactly is CNC, and how does it help us create countertops that fit perfectly every time? Let’s dive in.
What is CNC Technology?
CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control. Simply put, it’s a machine guided by computer programming that precisely cuts and shapes materials—in our case, natural and engineered stone slabs.
Instead of cutting stone by hand, which can be time-consuming and sometimes involve errors, the CNC machine uses digital designs to carve every edge, curve, and cutout with remarkable accuracy. This means every countertop we produce fits your space perfectly, with clean edges and smooth finishes.
Why Does CNC Matter for Your Countertops?
- Precision Like No Other: Every curve and corner of your countertop is cut exactly to specifications. Whether it’s a complicated sink cutout or an elegant edge profile, CNC technology ensures a flawless fit.
- Consistency and Quality: This machine doesn’t tire or rush, so every piece we produce meets our high standards. You get a consistent, professional finish, no matter the project size.
- Faster Turnaround: CNC speeds up production without sacrificing quality—which means you get your new countertops sooner.
- Complex Designs Made Simple: Want unique shapes, intricate designs, or custom details? CNC technology can handle it with ease, bringing your vision to life.
Behind the Scenes: How It Works
Once we take precise measurements of your space, our design team creates a detailed digital template. This template tells the CNC exactly where to cut and polish. The stone slab is then loaded into the machine, which carefully follows the programmed path to create your perfect countertop.
It’s a blend of human expertise and cutting-edge technology—the best of both worlds.
What Happens to the Leftover Pieces?
Stone slabs are large, but your countertop might not use every inch. The leftover pieces—called remnants—are often too small for a full countertop but perfect for smaller projects like bathroom vanities, shelves, or custom accents.
At Bad Lizard, we don’t let these pieces go to waste. You can find a selection of high-quality slab remnants in our indoor showroom, and they are great for quick projects or budget-friendly upgrades.
