The mold is a precision tool, the shape is complex,which needs to bear the expanding force of the blank. It has high requirements of structural strength, rigidity, surface hardness, surface roughness and machining accuracy. Mingtai Aluminum is committed to the aluminum plate industry more than 20 years. It has dedicated R&D team that can produce ultra-wide and ultra-thick mold aluminum plate, the technical level is leading in industry. So what are the specifications of the mold aluminum plate? What is the general state of mold aluminum plate? What are the advantages?Please follow Mingtai Aluminium to learn about it:

What are the common specifications of mold aluminum plate?

The common mold aluminum plate alloy number are 5052 mold aluminum plate, 5083 mold aluminum plate, 6061 mold aluminum plate, 7075 mold aluminum plate and so on. More specifications can be customized according to the actual needs of users.

What are the advantages of different series of mold aluminum plate?

1. The 5xxx aluminum plate is an aluminum-magnesium alloy with medium strength, good plasticity, excellent weldability and good antirust performance. The manufacturing mold generally uses 5052 aluminum plate and 5083 aluminum plate.

2. The 6xxx aluminum plate is an aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy, which is one of the main materials for manufacturing high-end precision molds.Among them, 6061 aluminum plate occupies 80% of the market in different mold industry. It's generally T-state, which is commonly used mold aluminum plate.

The main alloying elements of the 7xxx aluminum sheet are aluminum and zinc, which have strengthening effect of the alloy，the tensile strength and yield strength of the alloy increase with the increase of the proportion. Mingtai 7075 aluminum plate is rolled by German West mark six-roll cold rolling mill, this machine currently has only four in China. The products produced are better in form,higher precision and more stable performance.

Why is the market of mold aluminum plate more and more wide?

Taking steel as an example, the mold aluminum plate has a great advantage than steel plate.

1. The weight is light, because its density is only 36% of that of general die steel, so the moving inertia is relatively low.In the production process, acceleration and deceleration is easier,which can reduce the loss of machine and die.

2. It has high stability, its cutting speed is more than six times faster than general die steel, the machining time of the mold is reduced.

3. Excellent thermal conductivity, its thermal conductivity is higher than that of general die steel, which can save the cold cutting time in the production of the mold, thus improving the production efficiency of the mold.

The mold aluminum plate substrate produced by Mingtai Aluminum has outstanding performance characteristics , which is widely used in various industries and is the best choice for you.
