Industrial Applications

Significant cost savings can be realised in all industrial applications of the cryogenic treatment process.

Our industrial cryogenic treatment of ferrous and non-ferrous metals will extend the wear resistance and improve longevity of friction bearing components. By cryogenically treating your tools, you are able to have your machinery in production longer. The reduction in downtime will save you money. Case studies have shown that a 300% increase between scheduled maintenance or replacement can be achieved on some treated products.

Benefits include:

  • Longer wearing components  - generally extends life of tools and parts by 300% or more
  • Less downtime on maintenance and change-over
  • Increased durability of drill bits, cutting and milling tools
  • Decrease wear of friction bearing components
  • Reduce stress 
  • Reduced warping/cracking of susceptible components
  • Enhanced performance
  • Reduced heat
  • Treated items will exhibit increased life leading to dollar savings
  • Process can be applied to items that are new/used or sharp/dull and best of all sharpening or dressing of worn tools will not destroy treatment effects

Industrial applications of cryogenics

  • Machining: lathes, drill bits, cutting and milling tools
  • Pulp and Paper: saws, chippers, millers and cutters
  • Oil and Gas: drilling, compression, pumps, pumpjack gears, valves and fittings
  • Mining: drill bits, drilling steel, slasher teeth and face cutters
  • Food Processing: grinders, knives and and extruding dies
  • Textiles: scissors, needles, shears and cutting tools
  • Wood Fabricating: saws, drill bits, routing bits and planes
  • Dental and Surgical Instruments
