Overview

SIST EN 2131:2004 is a European standard developed by CEN that specifies the dimensions and tolerances for plates made from aluminium alloys in the aerospace industry. It applies to plates with thicknesses ranging from greater than 6 mm up to 160 mm. This standard ensures consistent quality and dimensional accuracy crucial for aerospace manufacturing and engineering, supporting the stringent requirements of the aerospace sector.

Key Topics

  • Scope: The standard covers aluminium alloy plates primarily used for aerospace applications, focusing on plate thicknesses between 6 mm and 160 mm.
  • Dimensional Specifications: EN 2131 details the nominal dimensions, including width and length ranges suitable for aerospace-grade aluminium plates.
  • Thickness Tolerances: The standard specifies precise thickness tolerances based on plate dimensions, to ensure uniformity and reliability.
  • Form and Geometry: EN 2131 defines squareness, flatness, and lateral curvature tolerances essential for aerospace components' structural integrity.
  • Measurement Methods: Testing methods reference EN 3848, outlining how to accurately measure form deviations such as flatness and curvature.
  • Recommended Sizes and Mass: Provides calculated mass per unit area for different thicknesses, aiding in material selection and structural design.

Applications

  • Aerospace Manufacturing: Vital for producing aluminium alloy plates used in aircraft fuselage, wings, and other structural components requiring precise dimensions.
  • Quality Control: Enables aerospace manufacturers and suppliers to verify plate dimensions and tolerances, ensuring compliance with aerospace safety and performance standards.
  • Material Procurement: Assists procurement teams in specifying aluminium alloy plates with correct dimensions and tolerances to meet aerospace standards.
  • Engineering Design: Supports aerospace engineers in selecting standardized plate dimensions, contributing to efficient weight management and mechanical performance.
  • Standardized Production: Facilitates uniform production processes across Europe by harmonizing aluminium plate sizes and tolerances in the aerospace sector.
