Cryogenic Deflashing
Our Cryogenic Deflashing process utilizes gaseous nitrogen as a cryogen to freeze the parts while they are tumbled and blasted with plastic media. This process is able to remove mold flash from difficult to reach areas including cross-holes, blind holes and other difficult geometries.
