Alternative to Aluminum Honeycomb Panel

Sing Core’s alternative to aluminum honeycomb panel. aluminum honeycomb panel is used as core material in a variety of applications such as facades, walls, floors, ceilings, roofs, inside doors and partitions. Aluminum honeycomb core also found inside workbenches, craft tables, laser cutting tables, and a wide range of other types of work surfaces, especially when there is a desire to reduce the weight of the end product.

Increasingly, Sing Core is replacing aluminum honeycomb core with its Sing HPL Sandwich Core.

Sing HPL Sandwich Core

Sing HPL Sandwich Core is far superior to any aluminum honeycomb core in the following areas:

1.  Strength-to-weight ratio

2.  Fully insulated

3 High precision

4. Longevity

5.  Eco-friendly

6.  Warp-free

7.  Low cost

Sing HPL Sandwich Core serves as base core in many industries including government, scientific, universities, military, space exploration, aeronautics, nautical, in submarines, public transportation, railways, corporate, and industrial warehousing, just to name a few.

1. Strength to Weight Ratio

Sing HPL Sandwich Core exceeds all expectations when it comes to strength vs. weight thanks to SingCore’s patented and patent-pending technologies which are the foundation for the success of Sing’s core. Long ago, Sing coined the phrase,

“Heavy does not mean strong, and lightweight doesn’t have to be weak.”

Sing’s invention changed the way architects and engineers brought their creative endeavors and problem-solving solutions to life.

2. Fully Insulated

Sing HPL Sandwich Core is a key ingredient in breach proof impact doors, and other applications where sound proofing, refrigeration, defense, and separation is imperative. Due to the nature and construction of Sing’s HPL Sandwich Core, no effort needs to be made to achieve an acceptable degree of sound deadening or climate control.

3. High precision

When the attention to detail demands high precision, no core material is more precise or stable than Sing HPL Sandwich Core sporting an impressive .006-inch tolerance. This is why Sing HPL Sandwich Core is hands down the go-to solution for dead flat tables supplied by the best high-end millworks in America today.

4. Longevity

When it comes to composite cores, risk is assumed in the area of the lamination process which holds the various products together over time. Sing’s patented and patent pending technologies eliminate the risk of delamination over the life of the product in use. And even comes with a 50-year structure warranty which includes delamination, so you don’t have to worry about it.

5. Eco-friendly

Aluminum Honeycomb Panels are made offshore and imported for use in the USA. Why? Because the production process is so toxic to the environment that it would be nearly illegal to manufacture in the United States. Even so, we still share the same air and oceans with our neighbors outside our borders. This matters to Peter Sing who only uses USA-sourced and natural materials holding the highest standards for Eco-friendly manufacturing methods for a better world.

6. Warp-free

Sing HPL Sandwich Core is long-renowned as, “the only way” to create large, panelized structure materials that will not warp under strenuous conditions. Though note that Sing’s True Flat Team must be involved in the engineering and manufacturing of the project because many factors must be taken into consideration to create a warp-free product, such as size, skin type, location, and application. Still, the only 50-year warp-free guarantee in the industry, regardless of size.

 

Other Types of Core Materials

Sing HPL Sandwich Core is vastly in the process of becoming the replacement core of choice over other types of lightweight core materials such as paper honeycomb, and different kinds of urethane core, EPS core, wood-based core, such as particleboard, LVL, solid wood core, as well as aluminum honeycomb core to keep the working subject straight, flat, or lightweight over time without fail.

Sing MDF Composite

Going a step beyond the Sing HPL Sandwich Core, one of the most popular hybrid composite products in huge demand is Sing’s MDF Composite available in core or panelized with solid wood edges and implants. This has the embedded HPL for all the high performance results, plus it is topped with a super smooth 1/8” MDF for easy painting or lamination of nearly any material.

 

 

 

Sing Core MDF Composite

This is one very basic, less expensive option, but if you want to be straight, with concern of warping, or telegraphing, would require an upgrade with special skin underlayment beneath the MDF skin on top of Sing Core.

This creates a either a core material or full panel with stable material on both sides with MDF skin for paint grade or cold press purposes. More stable translates to less chance of telegraphing, and designed for high-end precision and smoothness. The price is a little bit over than that of standard MDF-only skin.

But, if you want to do hot press, then you must take advantage of our special hot press process. That means you can accommodate the increased high temperature and high pressure without worrying about any telegraphing. This is the most expensive method for the most demanding clients.

Shaking Up Metal Fabrication to its Core

Red-Hot-Lightweight-Aluminum-PanelsSing Core’s Metal Fabrication Department is shaking up the industry!

Our new applications are changing how to fabricate metal panels: Don’t’ Get Framed!  One of our clients, I-5 Designs, has us expanding our capabilities to meet the increased demand for the longest, most beautiful aluminum panels that are eco-friendly, lightweight and stronger than steel.

Traditional metal fabricated panels expend excessive energy in their creation, using aluminum framing and the result is a panel that looks acceptable but has no strength.

This is extremely advantageous when maintaining structural integrity over long spans… Check out this page on our web site: . You will see these 37 foot long beautiful ruby red aluminum panels that we are so proud of. Lightweight, eco-friendly, superior strength and gorgeous; you must see it to believe it.

Stronger than Steel, Lighter than Steel.

Your door doesn’t have to be steel to be strong. SINGCORE Metal Composite Panels are stronger and lighter than solid steel panels. SINGCORE Aluminum and Steel Honeycomb Panels are also stronger and lighter than overhead steel garage doors, which can be dented by something as small as a golf ball. Sing offers pricing competitive with steel panels of any type.

Lightweight sandwich panels can look like this without SINGCORE

The torsion box core holds the Sing Metal Panel flat so that it will not warp and sag. A 16lb steel hammer will easily dent a steel or vinyl door, but not a Sing Metal Panel. Because Sing panels are efficient to produce, they are more affordable than solid steel panels.

Advantages:

Eco friendly – Sing Core uses more renewable materials than any other type of composite panel. Sing Core also last many times longer than most of its competitors. It takes very little energy to produce Sing Core panels with our recycled and renewable structure material.

 

High Strength – Sing Core is much stronger than paper honeycomb ,aluminum honeycomb, and plastic honeycomb. A 2 in x 2 in piece of Sing Core was tested by the University of Washington and reached 660 PSI. The core grid is more than 10 times the strength of aluminum honeycomb with the same size of grids.

Lightweight – As light as 4 lbs per cubic foot.

True Flat – Sing Core aluminum will stay straight even the drastic swing by temperature and moisture change.

Fully Insulated – With EPS or urethane foam (R3.5-6.5 per inch).

Sound Deadening – Sing Core panels feel like solid wood panels, they do not sound hollow like other types of honeycomb core.

 

Fast Delivery – Any thickness and almost any length, less than 5 ft wide, can be made with in 48 hours if it is rush order.
