Performance Advantages of 6061-T651 Aluminum Plate
6061-T651 aluminum plate for robotic arm components, thanks to its excellent mechanical properties and processing characteristics. After solid solution heat treatment and artificial aging, the alloy has a tensile strength of up to 310MPa and a yield strength of 276MPa, while maintaining an elongation of 11%, a perfect balance between strength and toughness requirements. Its density is only 2.7g/cm³, about 40% weight reduction compared with traditional steel, providing key support for the lightweight design of robotic arms.
Upgrade options for robotic arm core components
In the field of industrial robots, 6061-T651 aluminum plate is widely used in joint arms, rotary tables, connecting flanges and other key components. Its excellent corrosion resistance and surface anodizing ability can adapt to acid and alkali corrosion and high-frequency friction in complex industrial environments. Measured data from a German manufacturer shows that the adoption of this material reduces the energy consumption of the robot arm by 18%, improves the cyclic positioning accuracy to ±0.05mm, and significantly extends the service life of the equipment.
Why choose 6061-T651 instead of other materials?
Compared with 7075 aluminum and other high-strength aluminum alloys, 6061 aluminum alloy shows better welding performance and cost advantages while maintaining higher strength. Its uniform stress distribution characteristics can effectively reduce the vibration frequency of the robotic arm in high-speed movement. The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) test report shows that the fluctuation of mechanical properties of the material is less than 5% in the temperature range of -40℃ to 80℃, which ensures the stability of the equipment under extreme working conditions.
