Cost savings
Faster machining
Machines up to 30% faster than brass and no burrs.
Dry machining
No need for coolants which add cost.
Longer tool life
Processes with standard cutting tools with typically 30% more tool life vs brass.
Low energy required
Only 4 to 9
Technical benefits
Lightweight
33% lighter than aluminium; 75% lighter than steel.
High strength
Can withstand loading associated with foiling. Compression strength is designed to endure accidental multi sheet feed without crushing the die.
High heat resistance
High heat resistance for hot foiling.
Better heat dispersion
Conducts heat evenly for clean, crisp images at lower temperatures.
Standard plate sizes
610 x 914 x 6.35 mm/24” x 35.9” x 0.25” sheet
610 x 914 x 7.00 mm/24” x 35.9” x 0.27” sheet
Precision Magnesium® surface is polished to photo engraving plate tolerances and a protective film applied, plates are thermally flattened and stress relieved and ground to gauge.
