INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Mounting Surface

Precision mounting surface for mold platforms ensuring accurate alignment and stability in manufacturing processes.

Component Specifications

Definition
A precisely machined planar surface on a mold platform designed to provide a stable, flat reference plane for mounting molds, dies, or tooling. It ensures proper alignment, repeatability, and dimensional accuracy during manufacturing operations by minimizing deflection and maintaining geometric tolerances under operational loads.
Working Principle
Provides a rigid, flat reference plane that distributes clamping forces evenly and maintains geometric accuracy through precision machining and material stability, preventing misalignment and ensuring consistent part quality.
Materials
Typically made from high-strength cast iron (e.g., GG25/GG30), ductile iron, or steel alloys (e.g., 4140 steel) with stress-relieving heat treatment to ensure dimensional stability and resistance to wear and deformation.
Technical Parameters
  • Hardness 180-220 HB
  • Size Range 500x500 mm to 2000x3000 mm
  • Load Capacity Up to 50 kN/m²
  • Surface Roughness Ra 1.6 μm
  • Flatness Tolerance 0.02 mm/m
Standards
ISO 230-1, DIN 876
