Description

Slabkast serves as a platform for visual approval and production handoff specifically designed for stone fabricators, transforming a simple photo of a stone slab into a calibrated layout that clients can approve and is ready for CNC production. This innovative tool empowers teams to generate slab layouts, align veins, and create CNC-compatible DXF files directly from any slab image—eliminating the need for specialized scanner equipment, dedicated photo stations, or in-person factory visits. Users simply upload a photo of the slab and identify four corner points, after which Slabkast automatically adjusts the perspective and assigns real-world measurements, ensuring the image is suitable for precise layout design. Moreover, template pieces can be positioned directly onto the slab's digital image, allowing fabricators and designers to seamlessly align natural stone veins across seams and establish a harmonious pattern before any cutting occurs. Additionally, Slabkast offers comprehensive 3D visualization capabilities, enabling clients to rotate, zoom, and thoroughly examine the countertop layout in relation to the actual slab, thereby providing a clear understanding of the finished product prior to the fabrication process. This level of interactivity not only enhances client satisfaction but also minimizes potential misalignments during the stone cutting phase.
