Effect of Cryogenic Treatment on Various Tools and Parts
So far experimental results obtained have shown that cryogenic technology can be widely used in various industries for various coponents in order to improve their performance and to extend their life. Here are some examples:
- To improve the speed and life of high speed steel and carbide drills;
- To improve the performance and life of synthetic diamond saw blade;
- To improve the ware resistance and life of car brakes;
- To increase the wear resistance of machine nozzle, springs, gears and bearings;
- To extend the life of hot and cold die;
Report from World Leading Companies
Worldwide renowned LIN provider Linda company (Germany) summarized the effects of cryogenic treatment of various metal tools with an improvement between 2 – 80 folds. Average wear ratio increased by 3-5 times.
