Cryogenic Rubber Deflashing Machine

The Barwell Freeze Trim-NX is an Industry 4.0 high output, automated and cost-cutting method of deflashing and deburring using cryogenic freezing. Cryogenics is by far the most versatile and effective option to deflash rubber parts.

Cryogenic Rubber Deflashing Machine

Cryogenic Rubber Deflashing

High-speed, quality-enhancing automated rubber deflashing machines using cryogenic freezing.

Industry 4.0 standard smart machine
Suitable for the deflashing and deburring of most rubber, plastic, die-cast zinc, or rubber-metal products
Single person operation
Expertly deflashes parts using cryogenic freezing
Separates the sprue and/or waste material from the finished parts
Exceptionally fast and automated and safe, improving operational efficiency
Provides a pristine quality finish

Features

Available in four capacity sizes

Industry 4.0 Features

Ideal for Industry 4.0 factories with features including:

Process data capture
Machine e-mailing of fault and maintenance prompts to designated personnel
Gateway protected access for remote support

Applications

The Freeze Trim provides the user with complete processing flexibility, and it is ideal for those with large volume production, multiple part sizes and complexities (including those up to 250mm dia.), different materials, or when a high quality and pristine finish is paramount.

Most small to large rubber and plastic parts
Ideal for ‘O’ rings
Metal deburring
Zinc and aluminium castings
Electronic components
Medical items

The Barwell Freeze Trim is ideal for use in the automotive, oil and gas, aerospace, medical, electronics, and general rubber sectors.

Use in Conjunction with a Barwell Spin Trim

A Freeze Trim will significantly reduce operational costs compared to traditional methods of deflashing. It can also be used in conjunction with a Spin Trim for further savings. The benefit of having a two-stage process is that it reduces the time taken during cryogenic deflashing, including the amount of liquid nitrogen used, reducing operational costs.

Using a Spin Trim can remove up to 90% of waste rubber, meaning you can then put more product into the Freeze Trim and also reduce cycle times by up to 50%.

It also means that a higher quality part is produced as the cryogenic and media blasting process can concentrate on polishing and fine trimming.
