https://www.howardprecision.com/aluminum/aluminum-cast-tool-jig-plate-stock-list/mic-6-aluminum/ – Howard Precision Metals offers Arconic’s Mic 6® cast aluminum jig plate from stock. The unique combination of MIC6 product characteristics allows for down- stream processing with precise control of tolerances and dimensionality. To support the industry’s best casting process, MIC6 plates are thermally stress-relieved at an elevated temperature as a separate furnace treatment. This helps insure a stress-free and stable plate. MIC6 plates are milled to exacting tolerances and smoothness, .005” for 3/4” (.127mm for 19mm) thickness and over, .015” (.381mm) for plates between 1/4” and 5/8” (6mm and 16 mm) thickness. Surface smoothness is normally maintained at 10 to 12 microinches, well below the 20 microinch (0.50 micron) product maximum. Laser equipment installed on this granite table checks MIC6 plates for flatness.
MIC 6® can be used for a variety of applications, such as:
• Automotive Tooling
• Base Plates, Side Plates, Indexing Tables
• CNC Routing Tables
• Chip Printers
• Circuit Printers
• Dielectrics
• Fixtures
• Food processing
