Machine Tools

Numerous machine tool companies are now using Precision Granite Castings for their structures in favour of the more traditionally used materials like cast iron, steel, aluminium etc., because of it's better material characteristics including, high damping, lower noise levels, resistance to most known coolants, oils, chemicals, high static dynamic stiffness, giving improved tool life, improved surface finish, fewer costly down-times, lower tooling outlay.

Examples of machines tools, where Granitek Precision Granite Castings are used:

Milling, Turning, Grinding (internal, external, universal, slide-way), Drilling, Gear-hobbing, Boring, Honing, Lapping, Sawing, Forming, ECM, EDM, Special Purpose.
