Cryogenic Treatment for Stress Relieving Aluminum Stresses Found in Aluminum Stresses in aluminum can be caused by various external and internal factors. Some common types of stresses that can be found in aluminum include: Tensile stress: This type of stress is caused by a pulling force applied to the material, causing it to stretch. Compressive […]
Teflon Machining and Nitrofreeze® Cryogenic Deburring
Teflon machining is used to produce components for the aerospace, electrical, medical, and processing industries. Filled and unfilled grades of this fluoropolymer are used in machined parts such as beads, bushings, and bearings; seals, gaskets, and O-rings; gears, guides, and fittings; and valve bodies and valve seats. Machined Teflon is also used for arc shields […]
Santoprene Injection Molding and Nitrofreeze® Cryogenic Deflashing
Santoprene injection molding is used to produce automotive and electrical components, parts for household appliances, and building and construction products. Medical grades of this thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) are molded into parts including medical wearables, devices and equipment. There are many different types of TPEs, but Santoprene belongs to a subcategory called thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) that […]
Deflashing Polycarbonate Molded Parts
Deflashing Polycarbonate Molded Parts Polycarbonate Material Polycarbonate is a type of plastic that is known for its strength, transparency, and resistance to impact. It is a polymer, which means that it is made up of repeating units of a small molecule called a monomer. In the case of polycarbonate, the monomer is a compound […]
