Marking plate M206.207.1 — Grey cast iron, 800 × 600 mm (DIN 876/3) | Metav IndustryLine

The Marking plate M206.207.1 is a grey cast iron measuring surface designed for workshop layout, scribing and inspection tasks where a stable, standardised reference plane is required.

• Grey cast iron construction
• Flatness to DIN 876/3
• 800 × 600 mm working surface
• Massive 70 kg for stable measurements

A stable reference plane that improves measurement repeatability

A robust reference surface reduces variability in workshop layout and inspection. The heavy mass and compact section of this plate provide improved damping against incidental vibration, so marks and checks retain positional accuracy. Where repeatable scribing and inspection are essential, a defined flatness class reduces the need for repeated reprofiling of workpieces, supporting faster throughput and lower scrap rates.

Conformance to DIN 876/3 for consistent flatness and comparability

Being manufactured to DIN 876/3 means the surface meets an established flatness class used in many production and inspection environments. This standardised tolerance makes results comparable across shifts and locations, simplifying process control and documentation. For organisations that rely on predictable geometric references, the plate’s compliance with the norm supports reliable layout and alignment procedures without requiring specialist high‑end metrology.

Cast iron advantages: thermal stability and wear resistance

Made from grey cast iron, the plate benefits from good thermal properties and inherent damping, which together help to maintain flatness under typical workshop conditions. The specification 800 × 600 × 25 mm describes the usable surface and section thickness; the substantial mass of 70 kg contributes to a steady working surface that resists transient disturbances. These material characteristics make the plate particularly suitable for marking, comparison checks and as a mounting surface for small jigs and fixtures.

Practical use cases and workshop integration

This plate is optimised for layout, scribing and general measuring‑table duties in machine shops, toolrooms and assembly areas. It serves well as a stable datum for transferring dimensions, checking flatness of small components and as a reference when setting up simple inspection rigs. Supplied as a finished grey cast iron plate, it integrates into existing workshop procedures with minimal additional training and supports efficient, error‑reduced workflows.

FAQ

What applications is this marking plate suited for?
The Metav IndustryLine marking plate M206.207.1 is intended for layout, scribing, inspection and as a general reference surface in workshops and toolrooms.

How does DIN 876/3 affect everyday use?
DIN 876/3 defines the plate’s flatness tolerance; using the plate ensures comparable reference results and supports consistent marking and inspection procedures.

What benefits does grey cast iron provide for a surface plate?
Grey cast iron offers good damping and thermal stability, which help the M206.207.1 maintain flatness and reduce the influence of vibration during marking and inspection.

Is the plate heavy to handle and how should it be installed?
With a mass of 70 kg the plate is intentionally heavy to improve stability; handling and installation should follow standard workshop safety practices and use appropriate lifting aids.
