G.AL® C330 is made with alloy EN AW 7021 (AlZn5.5Mg1.5). Our vertical, continuous casting process closes the gap between medium and high-strength aluminum materials. G.AL® C330 is characterized by a fine and homogeneous structure, low microporosity, excellent machinability, and superior mechanical strength. We manufacture these plates in material temper T79, making them more low-stress and dimensionally stable than any other material in this strength class.
Applications
Tool Making
The flatness of G.AL® C330 makes the production of tool holders inexpensive. Its elevated hardness reduces abrasion and ensures component longevity.
Installation Technology
Base and ground plates often have various openings and pockets. Using traditional rolled plates opens up the risk of distortion and warping. The low residual stress of G.AL® C330 significantly minimizes this risk.
Printing
Rolled plates (commonly used) are prone to warping which is why we engineered G.AL® C330 with technical and hard-anodizing properties. Made to withstand stress at heavy loads without bending or breaking.
Automation
Higher-stress transfer plates, swivel devices, clamping devices, and more are installed quickly and easily thanks to the mechanical strength and narrow tolerances of G.AL® C330.
Handling and Robotics
Optimized load capacity, enhanced machinability, and dimensional stability allow G.AL® C330 to aid in fast production of intricate components used in gripping, clamping, or holding parts in demanding robotics.
Mechanical and Special Machine Engineering
G.AL® C330 Precision Plates are used for centering, mounting, and pressing devices because of their ability to reduce wear in demanding environments.
“G.AL® C330 can replace high or ultra-high strength rolled plates in over 70% of applications, saving time and money. We are happy to help you through the process of replacing rolled plates with our G.AL® products.”
