Striving Toward Perfection: How Quarra Stone Uses Levitation To Shape Stone

Quarra Stone unveiled a revolutionary CNC machine using magnetic levitation technology for stone fabrication. The contactless system eliminates mechanical friction, delivering zero drift and perfect repeatability for large-scale architectural and sculptural stonework with unprecedented precision and fidelity.

-- Quarra Stone, a leader in architectural and sculptural stone fabrication, has unveiled a new CNC machine that redefines what’s possible in stonework. With magnetic levitation technology at its core—similar to the forces that power the world’s fastest maglev trains—this is not just a machine. It’s a statement of intent: Quarra is building the future of stone fabrication on principles of contactless precision and radical innovation.

Unlike traditional CNC machines, Quarra’s new machine eliminates mechanical friction entirely. No belts. No counters. No metal-on-metal contact. Instead, linear motors and absolute positioning control every axis with extraordinary accuracy over our largest work envelope. The result? Zero drift, no mechanical “backlash,” and perfect repeatability across even the most complex forms.

“This isn’t just an equipment upgrade—it’s a declaration of our standards,” said James Durham, Founder and President of Quarra Stone. “We’re not trying to match what others do. We’re chasing perfection, and that means acquiring equipment that can execute at the highest level of fidelity, detail, and scale.”

A CNC System Built for Monumental Stone

At first glance, it may look like another CNC machine, but this system is one-of-a-kind in North America. Engineered exclusively for Quarra’s large-scale architectural and sculptural work, it redefines what’s possible in stone fabrication.

This isn’t just about machining faster—it’s about realizing digital models with fidelity, depth, and dimensional clarity. By eliminating mechanical drag, Quarra delivers crisp transitions, faithful curves, and cleaner finishes—directly from design to stone.

About the company: Quarra Stone Company is a leading architectural and artistic stone fabrication service provider for institutions, public art, restoration, and high-end residential projects.
