Its high load-bearing capacity and robust rigidity support a wide range of industrial needs, with optional accessories like steel stands, leveling bolts, and protective covers for tailored setups.
Built for Durability and Ease of UseManufactured from non-corrosive black granite with chamfered edges and Mohs hardness of 6-7, the plate resists wear and environmental damage. It's easy to mount on stands, benches, or pedestals, and versatile for manual measurements requiring high-resolution instruments. Packed securely in wooden crates, it ensures longevity and safe transport.
FAQ's of Granite Surface Plate:
Q: How is the flatness of the Granite Surface Plate maintained over time?
A: The plate is made from high-density black granite, which resists wear and minimizes thermal expansion (6 x 106/C). Proper chamfered edges and rigid structure ensure the surface remains exceptionally flat, while periodic calibration assures conformity to Grade 0 or relevant standards.
Q: What is the standard process for using a granite surface plate for inspection?
A: Place the plate on a stable surface or use optional steel stands/leveling bolts. Clean the surface and use precision measuring instruments such as dial indicators or height gauges. Regularly check for contaminants or damage to maintain measurement accuracy.
Q: When should I choose a granite surface plate over a cast iron alternative?
A: Granite is non-magnetic, highly wear-resistant, non-corrosive, and provides extra-fine smooth surfaces. It's ideal for environments where magnetic interference or rust could affect accuracy, and where high flatness stability is required for long-term precision measurements.
Q: Where can the granite surface plate be installed for optimal performance?
A: Install the plate in a temperature- and humidity-controlled environment, such as a standard room or metrology laboratory. Position it on stands, benches, or a pedestal to minimize vibrations and ensure stable, precise measurement results.
Q: What accessories are available with the granite surface plate?
A: Optional accessories include robust steel stands, leveling bolts for precise height adjustment, and protective covers to shield against dust and scratches. These help maintain the plate's accuracy and durability across various workspaces.
Q: How does the surface plate benefit precision inspection and tool making?
A: Its high flatness tolerance, non-magnetic properties, and resistance to environmental factors ensure reliable, repeatable measurement references. This boosts productivity, reduces errors, and improves quality control for inspection, layout, and tool making applications.
Precision Engineering for Reliable ResultsEach granite plate undergoes meticulous hand-lapping, ensuring an extremely flat surface essential for high-precision inspection and measurement tasks. Conforming to DIN 876/IS 7327 standards, these surfaces are engineered for accuracy ranging up to 0.001 mm with appropriate accessories.
Built for Durability and StabilityThe use of premium quality black granite guarantees both hardness (6-7 Mohs) and wear resistance, while chamfered edges reduce the risk of chipping. Rust resistance is inherent due to the plate's non-metallic composition, making it ideal for various ambient laboratory and industrial environments.
Made to Measure, Tailored to Your NeedsChoose from a variety of sizes, thicknesses (up to 400 mm), and grades to suit specific measuring or inspection demands. The granite surface plate supports customizable specimen size, test width, and capacity, and can be equipped with optional legs/stands for different mounting needs. Resurfacing and lapping finishes are available on request.
FAQ's of Export Quality Granite Plate:
Q: How is the flatness of the granite plate ensured and maintained?
A: The plate is hand-lapped to meet strict DIN 876/IS 7327 flatness tolerances, and can be resurfaced or re-lapped on demand to maintain the required accuracy over time.
Q: What are the benefits of using premium black granite for surface plates?
A: Premium black granite provides excellent hardness, stability, and wear resistance, alongside a non-corrosive, rustproof surface that remains vibration-free during usage, ensuring long-lasting precision.
Q: When should I opt for a particular grade (00, 0, 1, or 2) of granite surface plate?
A: The choice depends on the precision needed: Grade 00 offers the highest flatness for critical laboratory measurements, while grades 0, 1, or 2 suit general inspection, tool room, or shop floor uses.
Q: Where is the ideal environment to use this granite surface plate?
A: It performs best in ambient, non-condensing environments such as laboratories, tool rooms, and manufacturing facilities, operating efficiently between 0C and 50C.
Q: What process should I follow for periodic maintenance or resurfacing?
A: Regularly check flatness with proper accessories; for restoration, professional resurfacing or lapping service is available on demand to ensure the plate's accuracy is preserved.
Q: How can the surface plate be installed and secured?
A: It can be mounted on optional heavy-duty adjustable cast iron or steel legs/stands, ensuring stability and precise leveling for reliable measurement or inspection.
