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 […]

Nitrofreeze® Cryogenic Deflashing for PPS Parts

Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing removes flash from injection-molded PPS parts without affecting critical dimensions or surface finish. This proven process removes gate vestiges, flash that extends from the surface of an injection-molded part after gate runners are removed. Cryogenic deflashing also removes flash from hard-to-reach areas such as cross-holes, blind holes, and other challenging part geometries. […]

Why Medical Plastic Injection Molding Needs Cryogenic Deflashing

Medical plastic injection molding can produce high volumes of tight-tolerance parts for medical devices and equipment. During the injection molding process, however, excess material known as flash can form on the surfaces of parts. Cryogenic deflashing can safely, cleanly, and cost-effectively remove this unwanted plastic flash without affecting critical part tolerances. There are many other […]

Nitrofreeze® Cryogenic Deflashing for Silicone Overmolding

Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing removes mold flash from parts produced using silicone rubber overmolding, a multi-step process that molds silicone rubber over parts made from another material. Examples include medical devices where silicone is molded over metal to provide protection against water, heat, impact, and electrical shock. Silicone can also be molded over plastic during two-shot […]
