Cryogenic Deflashing for Automotive Plastics
Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing removes flash from automotive plastics, a category of synthetic materials that are molded into parts for automotive interiors and external auto parts. Our quick and cost-effective batch process won’t alter critical part dimensions or surface finish, including Class A surfaces that are highly visible. Flash is removed cleanly from hard-to-reach areas, and […]
Cryogenic Deburring for Small Plastic Parts
Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deburring provides manufacturers and machine shops with a better way to remove burrs from small plastic parts. Burrs, a type of manufacturing defect, are raised areas on the surfaces of parts produced with milling, turning, or machining operations. Although some CNC equipment can remove burrs in-line, deburring is usually performed off-line for small […]
Nitrofreeze® Cryogenic Deflashing for Better Molded Parts
Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing is a quick, consistent, and cost-effective way to remove flash from batches of molded rubber and plastic parts. Flash, a type of manufacturing defect, is excess material that forms on the surfaces of parts produced with injection, compression, or transfer molding. Flash detracts from a part’s appearance, but it can also cause […]
Why Plastic Molding Needs Nitrofreeze® Cryogenic Deflashing
Plastic molding can produce parts with flash, excess material that forms on part surfaces. During injection molding, molten plastic may escape through the mold’s parting line. Improper venting, low clamping pressure, low material viscosity, and uneven flow can also cause flash formation. In addition, injection molding flash sometimes occurs after the gate runners are removed. […]
