Description
Granite Surface Plate - Laboratory Grade 00 - 1200 x 800 x 160mm SERIES 611 A granite surface plate is a flat, stable reference surface made from high-quality, precision-ground granite. It is primarily used in industrial and laboratory environments for precise measurement and inspection tasks. The stability, durability, and wear resistance of granite make it an ideal material for surface plates, particularly for maintaining accuracy over time under heavy use. Applications of a Granite Surface Plate: Precision Inspection : Surface plates are used as a reference plane for inspecting parts for flatness , squareness , parallelism , and other geometrical dimensions. Instruments such as dial indicators , height gauges , and CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machines) are often used in conjunction with a surface plate to measure parts accurately. Layout Work : In manufacturing or machining, granite surface plates are used as the base for marking out precise locations on a workpiece, especially for holes, cutouts, or assembly points. Calibration : Tools like micrometers , calipers , and dial indicators are often calibrated against a granite surface plate, ensuring that they are accurate when used for measurement. Precision Assembly : Surface plates serve as a platform for assembling precision components, allowing for consistent alignment and the elimination of errors in fit or dimension. CMM Base : In coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), granite is often used as the base plate because of it…
