The cryogenic deburring process uses very low temperatures and polycarbonate media to remove burrs from machined parts. This proven deburring method is especially effective at removing machined burrs from blind holes, through holes, and other hard-to-reach part geometries.
What’s the Best Cryogenic Deflashing Media for Molded Parts?
Cryogenic deflashing media is used to remove mold flash from plastic and rubber parts. Depending on the cryogenic deflashing process, cryogenic-grade polycarbonate media or dry ice particles are used.
How Does Cryogenic Deflashing Work?
Cyrogenic deflashing removes mold flash from plastic and rubber parts for improved appearance and performance. There are three different versions of this surface finishing process. The first, known simply as cyrogenic deflashing, freezes parts and blasts them with plastic media. The second, cyrogenic tumble deflashing, combines the advantages of cryogenic deflashing with dry ice deflashing, […]
When to Use Dry Ice Blasting for Parts Finishing
Dry ice blasting for parts finishing is a non-abrasive process that removes flash and burrs from individual molded or machined parts. Learn about its advantages, and when to use it instead of cyrogenic deflashing and deburring.
Molding Defects and How to Fix Them: Understanding Mold Flash
Molding defects reduce the surface quality of rubber and plastic parts. The causes include problems with flow lines, sink marks, vacuum voids, and surface delamination. Molding defects are also caused by short shots, burn marks, jetting, and warping. Flash or flashing, the formation of excess plastic or rubber on the surface of molded parts, is […]
