Blind holes are machined openings that do not pass through the entire workpiece. They are drilled, milled or reamed to a specific depth but without breaking through to the other side. If a blind hole requires reaming, it’s important to leave some extra room at the bottom for chips. With tapped holes, this extra amount […]
Polysulphones (PSU) are a group of high-performance thermoplastics that provide toughness and stability at high temperatures. They are available in medical grades and can withstand repeated cleaning with disinfecting chemicals. With their very low rate of water absorption, medical PSUs can also withstand superheated steam. In addition, these engineering polymers provide excellent resistance to high-energy […]
The best deburring tool for plastic parts isn't a blade, bit, trimmer, cutter or rotary tool. For plastic parts deburring, use Nitrofreeze cryogenic deburring.
Medical deburring with Nitrofreeze® cryogenic technology safely and cleanly removes burrs from the plastic and rubber parts used with today’s medical devices and equipment.
Nitrofreeze® has joined the fight against COVID-19 by cryogenically deburring the rotary valve seats used in ventilators.
