Benefits of digital templating
Posted by ExquisiteStone on June 5, 2014
We are living in a world that appears to become more entwined with technology by the minute. This reliance on phones and tablets seems to make life both easier and more complicated as we move away from phone books, the #2 pencil, and even desktop computers.
In working towards incorporating more digital technology into the countertop production process, Exquisite Stone has set aside the glue gun and graph paper, and is now using a digital templating machine for every project. Instead of manually building a pattern of the countertops or creating a drawing using a tape measure and a notepad, Exquisite Stone now uses a state-of-the-art templating machine to gather all the information that is needed to build the countertops. This computer enables the template technician to quickly and accurately collect all the relevant data for the project, including not only the locations and dimensions of each cabinet but also sink and cooktop centerlines, subtle inconsistencies in elevation and many other details that can be easily missed. This step towards a more digital process has allowed Exquisite Stone to become faster, more efficient and more accurate with the way that countertops are made. While conversion to digital production has its challenges, every day it makes our jobs easier, our work better, and our customers happier.
There are still a few #2 pencils and graph pads floating around the shop, but not many!
