Precision Machined Plates
A plate is defined by three things: flatness, parallelism and uniform thickness. Get those right and everything assembled on it behaves; get them wrong and the error propagates through the whole stack.
Types
Base plates, cover plates, separator plates, mounting plates and vacuum or fluid distribution plates, with bores, threads, pockets and sealing grooves as required.
The geometry that matters
Flatness across the working face, parallelism between faces and thickness consistency. These are measured on a Zeiss CMM for geometry and position, the TRIMOS V5 height gauge for heights and steps, and the AI-Vision system for fine features rather than inferred.
Materials
Aluminium, stainless steel, titanium and engineering plastics, depending on whether stiffness, corrosion resistance, weight or insulation dominates.
Flanges, discs and mounting hardware
Below are examples of this kind of work held to our standard tolerance and finish. Dimensions, drawings and material certificates are available on request.
