Cryogenic Deflashing Systems

General Information

C.D.S.'s Cryogenic Deflashing and Deburring Systems are all designed and built to meet the most exacting demands of the industry. We have facilitated high productivity with a significant reduction in operational costs. Our systems are versatile, encompassing the needs to deflash a wide range of material and sizes.

Our state-of-the-art programmable computer with memory capacity for up to 9999 on board programs allows you to select cycle parameter of temperature, time, tumble speed and media velocity. Bar coding further simplifies operation by unskilled personnel, while expanding on-board memory to near infinite capacity for thousands of part configurations.
(Note: Available on SSB models only).

How it works

Rubber and plastic parts are placed in a stainless steel parts basket, which rotates in a blast chamber evenly exposing all parts to the blast media. The chamber is insulated with rigid polyurethane foam to ensure stable temperatures.

Liquid nitrogen lowers the interior temperature, freezing the flashing to make it brittle. Use of high-purity, moisture-free nitrogen eliminated the need for a dryer and prevents part contamination due to moisture.

The high-speed impeller shoots polycarbonate plastic pellets into the chamber. Traveling at high speeds, these pellets cleanly trim off the inner and outer diameter flashing of parts in one operation.

The unit is fully enclosed to minimize ambient noise levels. Blast media and flash can be separated and recovered for reuse.
