Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing removes flash from automotive plastics, a category of synthetic materials that are molded into parts for automotive interiors and external auto parts. Our quick and cost-effective batch process won’t alter critical part dimensions or surface finish, including Class A surfaces that are highly visible. Flash is removed cleanly from hard-to-reach areas. Nitrofreeze® […]
Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing is a quick and cost-effective way to remove flash from injection-molded Amodel® PPA parts. This patented process won’t alter critical part dimensions or surface finish and can remove flash, a type of manufacturing defect, from hard-to-reach areas such as cross-holes and blind holes. Plus, unlike manual trimming, Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing eliminates time-consuming […]
Plastic molding can produce parts with flash, excess material that forms on part surfaces. During injection molding, molten plastic may escape through the mold’s parting line. Improper venting, low clamping pressure, low material viscosity, and uneven flow can also cause flash formation. In addition, injection molding flash sometimes occurs after the gate runners are removed. […]
Nitrofreeze® cryogenic deflashing for plastic insert molding gently removes flash from parts and products like electrical connectors and surgical tools. During insert molding, a plastic or rubber material is molded over a substrate that has been inserted into the mold. In the case of an electrical connector, this substrate is an electrically conductive metal. The […]
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 […]
