Deflashing
 Air Products Mini-Trim and Cryo-Trim Deflashing
Equipment
Air Products Mini-Trim and Cryo-Trim technology allows the removal
of excess flash and material from moulded rubber components.
The Mini-Trim is an ideal unit for trimming small to medium sized
volumes of moulded rubber components with excess material or flash
attached after the moulding process, by using liquid nitrogen
and the cryogenic process to embrittle the excess flash ready
for mechanical removal. The flash removal is efficient and provides
excellent moulded component finish quality.
How it works
The temperature of the rubber is reduced to below its glass
transition temperature (point at which rubber behaves like glass,
brittle). Plastic shot is fired at the parts, with a result of
the flash being broken apart from the rubber component, removing
the need for lengthy and laborious hand finishing. The whole process
from start to finish usually takes less that 6 minutes. The process
is completely automated and can be worked into the workshop computer
control system.
