Case Study: Cryogenic Deflashing for Glass-Filled PEEK Coupling Rings

Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing removes flash from glass-filled PEEK coupling rings. This fast, efficient and consistent finishing process uses gaseous nitrogen to freeze the parts and plastic media to break-off surface imperfections and excess material. Because it’s a batch process, cryogenic deflashing eliminates manual deflashing such as hand trimming for faster throughputs and reduced labor costs. […]

Case Study: Cryogenic Deflashing for Silicone Bumper Stops

Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing removes flash from silicone bumper stops. This fast, consistent and cost-effective process uses gaseous nitrogen to freeze the parts and plastic media to break-off surface imperfections and excess material. Thanks to batch processing, cryogenic deflashing can also reduce lead times and labor costs. The Challenge Nitrofreeze was asked to remove flashing from […]

Cryogenic Treatment of Speaker Wire

Over the years we have cryo treated many different applications from almost every industry. The processing of audio equipment has become a mainstay for our cryogenic treatment business. In 2007 and 2008 we cryo treated 10,000+ audio tubes, over a ton of speaker wire, several hundred amplifiers and thousands of connectors. Since that time, the […]

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 […]
