Most of our aluminum cast plate stock is available in full size and custom cut lengths.
Mic 6 tooling plate uk.
Due to the modified 5083 alloy composition the atp 5 aluminum tooling plate has a 5 lower density than the mic 6 product.
It has superior flatness and dimensional tolerances on the thickness which makes it popular for tooling and base plates.
The thicker plates 75 19 mm and over are produced to thickness.
The manufacture of this tooling plate material is the most advanced in the cast plate industry.
Aluminum plate cast also known as mic 6 is normally used for tooling and base plates cast plate offers exceptional stability and consistency between plates.
This alloy is similar to those in the 7000 series with precise adaptable additions of zinc copper magnesium and components of silicon iron and manganese.
Mic 6 aluminum cast plate is a blend of the most desirable features of many individual metals.
For technical drawings and 3 d models click on a part number.
Most importantly cost savings.
These surfaces re then protected with a removable pvc film this product also provides good flatness stability when being machined so is ideal for moulds casts and items that.
It is a cast product with both top and bottom surfaces machined to provide excellent thickness tolerances 0 1mm.
Our tooling plate is supplied in a 5000 series alloy.
Common applications of mic 6 aluminum cast tooling plate include.
Touting the most advanced process used in the cast plate industry all thicknesses of mic 6 cast tool and jig plate are produced to exceptional flatness tolerances.
Aerospace and automotive components.
Applications mechanical and chemical data.
Because of its cast granular structure and stress relieving properties mic6 aluminum cast plate allows high speed metal removal with little if any of the distortion commonly inherent in long grained wrought flat rolled metals.
The result is a cast aluminum plate that meets the challenge of product accuracy demanded by today s industry.
It promotes consistency between plates and reduces the risk of disrupting material stability by entrapping stress.
It has superior flatness and dimensional tolerances on the thickness.
This means this means that every piece of plate purchased is going to weigh 5 less.
Mic 6 aluminum cast plate chemical properties.
Aluminum mic 6 is cast plate known for its stability and consistency between plates.
Thicknesses of 25 to 625 6 mm and over have a maximum thickness variation of 015.
