Cryogenic deflashing has existed for several decades to serve the rubber and silicone molding industries. For several decades this process has helped remove residual flash left over by the molding process. Flash along parting lines, in holes, and gates vestiges can be removed by this deflashing process. The process originally was created to remove flash […]

Just the day before a fire had caused damage at one of their urban substations. A transformer had caught fire several feet above two cooling plants. A major fire […]
Cryogenic Treatment for Drill Bits
Every Friday we start our processor and complete a weekend run. We load the parts in and then set our process parameters for the run. We use ramps that go down no more than a degree per minute and we hold all the parts at -300°F for a total of 24 hours. Upon completion of […]
Dry Ice Blasting for Industrial Equipment
The week before Christmas, we started a new dry ice blast cleaning project for the Vacumet Corporation. Vacumet makes metalized paper for labels, video game covers and other applications. One of their large printers was taken offline for yearly maintenance. This year rather than use sandblasting, they opted to try dry ice blast cleaning. Over […]
Cryo Treated Transmissions

We have treated thousands of transmissions since we started cryogenic processing in 2003. Transmissions wear with age and mileage. As a result, some fail prematurely and need to be replaced. In addition, racers […]
