Sandwich Panel Dimensional Tolerances
Dimensional tolerances of sandwich panels play a major role in the performance of roof and facade cladding. These tolerances, determined during the design phase, ensure that the panels show ideal performance throughout their installation and usage period. Different tolerance values are applied depending on the dimensions of the sandwich panels such as thickness, length and width. These tolerances help minimize deviations that may occur during installation.
A portion of the sound wave hitting a surface is reflected, a portion is absorbed and the remaining portion is transmitted. These rates depend on the shape of the surface, the sound absorption of the material and the frequency of the sound. In addition to such acoustic performance, dimensional accuracy is also important in sandwich panels. Dimensional tolerances applied to Mekpan Panel products are detailed below.
Dimensional Tolerances in MEKPAN Panel Products
| Thickness (d) | Thickness Tolerance | Length (L) | Length Tolerance | Width (W) | Width Tolerance | Mirror Deviation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Less than 100 mm | ± 2 mm | Less than 3000 mm | ± 5 mm | All widths | ± 2 mm | W * ± %0.6 |
| 100 mm and above | d * ± %2 | 3000 mm and above | ± 10 mm | - | - | - |
These dimensional tolerances applied by Mekpan Panel in roof and facade claddings ensure that the panels are produced with high precision and provide long-lasting performance. These tolerances determined in the thickness, length and width measurements of the panels help the structures to be completed flawlessly during the assembly process. In addition, miter tolerance ensures that panels are placed properly, increasing aesthetic and structural integrity.
