DIX Metals is a full-service
stainless steel distributor and services provider.
In addition to offering 6061 aluminum plate and other materials,
our services include
precision material removal processes and cutting such as Blanchard
grinding,
double-disc grinding, duplex milling, waterjet cutting and
others — all dedicated to the preparation of precision, made-to-order
metal blanks.
Blanchard
Grinding
Blanchard grinding machines are used for standard surface
grinding of large and small plates, with heavy stock removal
rates for all magnetic materials
6061
Aluminum Plate
DIX works extensively with 6061 aluminum plate. We purchase
6061 aluminum plate in
huge quantities and pass the savings to you, helping ensure
that using DIX Metals will
always be cost-effective.
Double-Disc
Grinding
This process involves efficient material removal from opposing
planes. DIX Metals is
capable of consistently achieving flat and parallel tolerances
to .001 and finishes to 16Ra.
Duplex
Milling
This process, also referred to as twin milling, is used in
applications requiring six-sided flat, square and parallel
tolerances to .001.
Precision
Sawing
DIX Metals offers several methods of precision sawing, each
intended for specific types
of materials and configurations. DIX Metals provides anything
from precision sawing of aluminum plate up to 12 inches thick
to cut-off services of aluminum extrusions, bar,
and round stock up to 6 inches in diameter
Precision Plate Sawing / Horizontal
Band Sawing / Vertical Band Sawing
Flattening
and Surface Improvement
DIX Metals offers flattening services for stock aluminum plate
up to 1 inch in thickness.
For surface improvement, technicians use timesavers to apply
a brush finish on materials
to 16Ra.
Waterjet
Cutting
Dynamic Waterjet with Active Tolerance Control produces more
accurate parts at significantly higher cutting speeds than
parts cut with a conventional waterjet. This patent-pending
system utilizes a newly-developed advanced motion system that
incorporates unique mathematical cutting models, which control
a small, articulated wrist that is attached to the cutting
head. The wrist allows the cutting head to tilt in any direction,
compensating for the stream lag and taper experienced with
conventional waterjet cutting machines.
