Flange / Mounting Plate Component – Machinery and Equipment Manufacturing

Component Specifications

Definition

A structural component designed to provide a rigid, flat mounting surface for attaching discharge chutes to processing equipment. It ensures proper alignment, load distribution, and secure fastening while maintaining the integrity of material flow systems.

Working Principle

Provides a stable interface between the discharge chute and equipment frame through bolted connections, distributing mechanical loads evenly across the mounting surface to prevent stress concentration and maintain alignment during operation.

Materials

Carbon steel (ASTM A36), Stainless steel (304/316), Aluminum alloy (6061-T6) with corrosion-resistant coatings (zinc plating, powder coating) as required

Technical Parameters

Thickness 6-20 mm
Bolt Pattern Standardized (4-12 holes)
Surface Finish Ra 3.2 μm or better
Flatness Tolerance ±0.5 mm
Mounting Hole Diameter 10-20 mm

Standards

ISO 9001, DIN 2501, ASME B16.5
