The General Inquiries You Should Be Addressed In regards to Granite surface plate

The surface plate as well as the table is a precision base which is made for inspection, gauging, tool making, layout operations and spotting marking. The material should have the ability to make flat, damage resistance and stability. Although steel is the most popular, Granitesurface plate is the best one. There is much confusion regarding this surface plate which we will try to clear out.
Q. How do the colors of the Granite surface plate make a difference in characteristics?
Not always the color of the granite determines the quality of the stone. Even the material of the same color varies greatly due to the density. Generally, black is considered as the most reliable one as it has a great density as well as stiffness. It will bend and absorb less and provide an accurate measurement. They are an excellent choice for the surface plate.
Q. Do you need to recalibrate the surface plate after shifting to a new place?
There are certain circumstances under which you can move the surface plate without doing the recalibration. When there is no change in the environment or the support, you don’t need to recalibrate. In case, you have to transport the plates, it is a better idea to calibrate it for a better result.
Q. What is the most suitable way to support the surface plate?
Every surface plate comes with an instruction of support. The general placement is determined by the 20% rule of support. You have to fix the surface 20% of the width as well as length from the edges.
Q. What are the threatening conditions to make the plate out of tolerance?

The most common cause for the Granite surface plate is wear from use. There are other factors like improper supports and fluctuation of the temperature. If you place the plate near the heat source like sun light or heater, then it may cause temporary distortion. The thermal expansion of the plates changes with the gradient temperature which is the difference of the temperature in between the top and bottom layer of the surface.
