Thing You need to know about Aluminum Cast Plate from luis huang's blog

Aluminum manufactures aluminum cast plates that have ultra-high-performance alloys optimized for plastic mold tooling plate. Ellwood Aluminum specifically engineers to maximize the operational advantages of using aluminum alloys for today’s molding technologies, including injection molding, RIM, structural foam molding, vacuum forming, blow molding, rubber molding, tire molding, composite tooling and molds, as well as thermoforming molds.

 

The high-quality alloys of our aluminum cast plate allow the product to be used for aerospace composite tooling, robotic, and machinery components. Our aluminum cast plates are forged and heat treated to offer mold builders a higher strength and higher hardness in a larger aluminum mold plate thickness range.

Aluminum Cast Plate Advantages

 

Equiaxed grain structure

Low residual stress

Extreme flatness tolerance capability

Good internal soundness

Excellent surface finish

Many choose aluminum cast plate because it is faster and less costly to fabricate than steel. In addition, aluminum is easier to handle and stock since it weighs significantly less. The thermal conductivity of aluminum plate is higher than steel, so aluminum can cut molding cycle times to help you increase your output. Aluminum casting plates also allow the molds to cool more evenly, minimizing risk of distortion in the molded part.
