Expert Guide to Aluminum Cast Tool and Jig Plate
In contrast to rolled aluminum plates, aluminum cast tool and jig plate (CT&J) are brought to format (i.e. to a desired thickness) not by a rolling process, in which force is used to rolling them down, but by sawing and precision machining.
Heat treatment of aluminum
GLEICH Aluminium is one of the few manufacturers of aluminum cast plates with an in-house heat treatment facility.
But what actually happens during the heat treatment process and why it is necessary?
Aluminum does not rust
The use of aluminum has many advantages.
However, an advantage mistakenly attributed to aluminum is that it does not rust.
When using our materials, it is therefore useful to take precautions to prevent or minimize corrosion.
