Material Dimension unit Tray bottom width Side height Sheet thickness Perforated / open area (%) Use 0 for solid bottom; use documented open area when available.Length unit Straight length per piece Physical piece quantity Material density (kg/m³) Steel/GI substrate preset 7,850; aluminium 2,700.Procurement allowance (%) Material rate per kg (optional) 0 disables cost.Target mass unit Target mass (optional) Reverse-solves whole equal-length straight pieces.Supplier kg/m (optional) Compare supplier/catalogue mass with idealized net sheet geometry.

Calculated result

100.48 kg

400 mm developed sheet width

5.024 kg/m before perforation · 4.0192 kg/m net estimate

2.7008 lb/ft net estimate

10.048 kg per straight tray length

100.48 kg order mass

1. Developed width = 300 + 2 × 50 = 400 mm.
2. Solid sheet mass/m = 400 × 1.6 × 7,850 ÷ 1,000,000 = 5.024 kg/m.
3. After 20% entered open/perforated area: 5.024 × 0.8 = 4.0192 kg/m.
4. Project mass = 4.0192 × 2.5 × 10 = 100.48 kg.
