— allows complex machining with high metal removal rates and less part repositioning.
— Minimal movement during the machining process requires a low level of residual stress in the original plate.
— Repeatable reduced movement, combined with improved fl atness, allows you to purchase thinner plate with subsequent cost savings and reduced machining operations.

AEROSPACE PLATE PERFORMANCE DATA
The performance of aerospace plate has been evaluated through stringent internal testing and benchmarking as well as structured customer trials and feedback.
Lower residual stress provides:
• Improved ability to machine complex parts
• Reduction/elimination of rework
• Consistent mechanical property performance
• Uniform grain structure
• Faster overall machining time
