G.AL® C330 DYNAMIC is an enhanced version of G.AL® C330R made from alloy EN AW 7021 (AlZn5.5Mg1.5). The special casting parameters, post processing, and multi-step heat treatment of G.AL® C330 DYNAMIC make it isotropic, free of microporosity, and gives it great stretching abilities.
Applications
Hydraulics
Microporosity limits the use of conventional cast plates in hydraulic applications. In contrast, G.AL® C330 DYNAMIC, with its absence of micropores and exceptional stretching capabilities, outperforms both conventional cast plates and commonly used rolled steel plates.
Mold Making
G.AL® C330 DYNAMIC outperforms traditional rolled plate pre-series injection molds in automotives (plastic: PP) EN AW 7010. Easily machined and polished, low stress, and isotropic properties allow G.AL® C330 DYNAMIC to shorten prep time by up to 40%, and extend mold life by up to 17%.
Drive Technology
Gearboxes for assembly lines, sliding units or actuating / clock units often need to absorb high forces with thin wall thicknesses. Commonly, machining of more than 90% is required. Machining at this level is difficult with rolled plates, but easily accomplished with G.AL® C330 DYNAMIC.
Mechanical and Special Machine Engineering
Tool carriers, force redirection devices (fork heads), bearing blocks, and other pieces are often made from distortion-prone rolled plates. Manufacturing these pieces from rolled plates can be costly and time-consuming. With G.AL® C330 DYNAMIC, designers have a material that combines low-stress with high strength and hardness values to give exceptional stretching.
Isotropic properties are essential in many industries, like hydraulics. G.AL® C330 DYNAMIC prevents faulty manufacturing caused by non-isotropic materials.
