Chalco 5083 aluminum cast tooling plate has finer and homogeneous grain structure, with special state of stress digestion. Which makes almost no deformation after high speed of machining and cutting. Aluminum rolled plate sheet has orientated structure with strip distribution of grain along the processing direction, which makes more or less deformation of the parts after machining.
Characteristics of Chalco 5083 aluminum cast tooling plate

1.    Stress-relieved, Easy to processing, good effect of surface treatment.
2.    Excellent thickness tolerance.
3.    Isotropic homogeneity, higher dimension stability.
4.    Anti-magnetic, anti-radiation.
5.    Fine surface miling as requirement. Good surface quality, the finished product can be double side filmed.
