Soundwave parametric wood slat wall

Free template · CNC export

Soundwave

“Soundwave” is a parametric slat wall combining linear waves, swell waves. Open it in the free studio to adjust dimensions, slat spacing, relief depth and tenon-mortise joinery, then export CNC cutting files (DXF, SVG, G-code) and 3D models (STL, OBJ, STEP).

Fabrication at the default size

At the studio's default size of 2,400 × 1,120 mm, “Soundwave” is cut into 60 vertical slats of 18 mm, spaced 40 mm centre to centre. The parts, slats plus back panel, nest onto 6 sheets of 1,220 × 2,440 mm, and the studio estimates about 29 h of machining at 1,200 mm/min in 4 mm passes. Resize the wall or change the spacing in the studio and every figure is recomputed.

Machining notes

The slat outlines are busy: 341 m of contour per pass, so this design spends more time cutting than a smooth swell. With 166 mm from peak to trough the relief is shallow, so the slats stay narrow and nest onto 6 sheets. Every slat reaches the same 181 mm depth, so all the blanks have the same width.

Style

Waves and swell

Crests that roll across the whole wall, from one slow swell to layered folds and fine linear ribs. The movement runs along the room, so these designs suit long walls behind a sofa, a bed or a reception desk. Deep swells need wider slat blanks, so they take more sheets than shallow ribs.
