Steel 21 sets itself apart with 21 Micro Mill accuracy. Finished steel plates roll off 21 Micro Mills at Steel 21 in Cedar Springs, MI. One after another is checked for flatness and parallelism. The company says all steel plates surpass the industry standard by more than three times, are verified and documented. Steel 21 believe this is a perfect start for the building of a perfect tool.
Toolmakers utilize Steel 21 plate products because they trust the accuracy of the 21 Micro Milling process. Toolmakers know starting flat and parallel will save them time and money as well as lead to the best tool they can build. Furthermore, in terms of sustainability, 21 Micro Milling is 100% recyclable.
It’s hard to believe, but 21 Micro Milling is no longer new technology. Established in 2015, patented and well received by the tool building industries, Steel 21’s Micro Milling will celebrate its 10-year anniversary this January, 2025.
