ALUMINUM PLATE - PRECISION CAST TOOL & JIG High quality aluminum plate that allows high-speed metal removal with very little distortion. Top and bottom surfaces are plastic protected and precision machine finished to 20 micro-inches typical. Thickness tolerance is + .005. The result is a cast aluminum plate that meets the challenge for product accuracy demanded in today's industry. Developed for applications where dimensional stability is required. Applications include assembly jigs and fixtures, gages, indexing tables, electronic mounting plates, aircraft an automotive tooling, molds for plastic and rubber parts, medical instrumentation, robotics, routing tables, printing and pharmaceutical machinery. Product Features and Advantages High strength Very good machinability and weldability Excellent corrosion resistance Good ductility Can be anodized, hard anodized, or painted Regular fine grain structure Especially heat treated to obtain stress free condition, annealing after machining is not required BMG Metals can achieve precision tolerances on our new Metal Plate Saw. We can accurately saw cut up to 6" thick aluminum plate. Precision machined cast tool & jig plate comes with a typical 20 RMS finish, saving our customers valuable finishing time.
