Supporting static loads up to 500kg without deformation, ideal for heavy machinery engine component testing.
Fully compliant with GB/T 4986-2004 and ISO 8512-1 standards, verified by CMM 3D laser scanning.
Full support for custom dimensions and specifications tailored to your unique industrial requirements.
Advanced resin sand molding and centrifugal casting for uniform wall thickness and stability.
Every unit is CMM inspected and backed by a 1-year warranty against material defects.
Offering both cost-effective finish-milling and high-end hand-scraping for varied precision needs.
Secure export packaging in plywood boxes with anti-corrosion coatings for safe global transit.
Expert guidance on material selection (HT200 vs HT300) based on your load and wear requirements.
| Feature | Generic Cast Iron Box | Storan Premium Box |
|---|---|---|
| Lifespan | Standard (1-2 years) | Extended (3x longer) |
| Precision Drift | Moderate (High thermal expansion) | Minimal (Stress-relieved) |
| Surface Flatness | Machine Ground (Ra ≤1.6μm) | Hand-Scraped (±5μm) |
| Load Stability | Prone to deformation under load | High (Up to 500kg static) |
| TCO (Total Cost) | High (Frequent replacement) | Low (Long-term durability) |
HT200 is ideal for general-purpose precision measurements, while HT300 offers higher hardness (up to 240HB) and superior wear resistance, making it better suited for extreme loads and heavy-duty industrial fixturing.
Hand-scraping creates a high density of precision contact points (25-30 per 25x25mm), which increases the load-bearing area by 30% and achieves sub-micron flatness (±5μm), far exceeding the accuracy of machine grinding.
Our 550°C annealing process eliminates approximately 90% of internal casting stresses. This prevents the tool from warping over time, ensuring the square box maintains its perpendicularity and parallelism for years.
Yes, we offer full OEM/ODM support. We can manufacture custom dimensions beyond our standard range (100mm to 600mm) to meet your specific workpiece requirements.
All our square boxes are manufactured and verified according to GB/T 4986-2004 and ISO 8512-1 standards using CMM 3D laser scanning for validation.
We apply a specialized anti-corrosion coating involving pickling oil and plastic lining or anticorrosion paint, and then seal the unit in a reinforced plywood box for maximum protection.
