7075 aluminum plate with widely applications
(1)Engineered for maximum profitability
Using Signi moulds rather than steel substantially reduces production costs in several ways:
Faster and less costly fabrication
Being so much easier to machine, Signi moulds can typically be made in a third of the time of a steel equivalent, with corresponding savings in fabrication costs. (Ancillary components such as fittings, pillars and bushes are cost neautrl, as conventional steel components can be used. )
Lower operational costs
Signi moulds weigh anything up to 60% less than steel equivalents, so they're easier to handle and stock, and exert less strain on your process machinery. As well as extending press life in this way, specifying Signi also reduces your expenditure on tooling, machinery set-up, mould maintenance and ongoing consumables.
Massive productivity gains
The thermal conductivity of aluminium being many times higher than steel means that Signi moulds can cut moulding cycle times - and therefore increase output - by between 30 and 50%.
Faster turnaround
Using Signi products also saves time in both design and production because less complex cooling systems are required.
(2)Signi strength and consistency
Superior machinability and finishing
With metal removal rates at least four times greater than steel, Signi has excellent machinability and is easy to spark
And wire erode. High performance surface finishes are equally simple to achieve with a wide range of processes including
Chemical nickel, hard chrome and hard anodising. EDM polishing and photo-etching deliver more uniform results
Compared to steel, and the consistently reliable microstructural integrity of Signi alloys allows first class mirror finishes to be obtained for optically critical applications.
Higher product quality
Superior thermal conductivity allows an Signi mould to cool more evenly, minimising risk of distortion in the moulded part. Together with lower capital and production costs, total product consistency and a substantially faster time to market, this marked quality gain clinches the business case for choosing Signi
