Granite mechanical components are widely used in the machinery and precision engineering industries due to their excellent stability, durability, and precision characteristics. During the manufacturing process, the dimensional error of granite mechanical parts must be controlled within 1 mm. After this primary shaping, further fine machining is required, where strict accuracy standards must be met.
Advantages of Granite Mechanical Components
Granite is an ideal material for precision mechanical components and measuring bases. Its unique physical properties make it superior to metal in many aspects:
-
High precision – Measurement on granite components ensures smooth sliding without stick-slip, providing stable and accurate readings.
-
Scratch tolerance – Minor surface scratches do not affect measurement accuracy.
-
Corrosion resistance – Granite does not rust and is resistant to acids and alkalis.
-
Excellent wear resistance – Ensures a long service life even under continuous operation.
-
Low maintenance – No special care or lubrication is required.
Because of these advantages, granite components are often applied as fixtures, reference bases, and supporting structures in precision machinery.
Application in Fixtures and Measurement
Granite mechanical components share many characteristics with granite surface plates, making them suitable for precision tooling and measuring systems. In practical use:
-
Fixtures (tooling applications) – Granite bases and supports are used in machine tools, optical instruments, and semiconductor equipment, where dimensional stability is critical.
-
Measurement applications – The smooth working surface ensures precise measurements, supporting high-accuracy inspection tasks in metrology labs and manufacturing facilities.
Role in Precision Engineering
Precision and micro-machining technologies are at the core of modern manufacturing. They are essential for high-tech industries such as aerospace, semiconductor, automotive, and defense. Granite mechanical components provide the reliable measuring foundation and structural support required in these advanced fields.
