 | Permanently enhance volumetric efficiency of metals. Treated
components may be ground after treatment and the benefits of treatment are retained. |
| Reduce the frequency and cost of tool regrinding. Worn treated
tools require less material removal to restore a uniform cutting edge. And so, treated
tools may be reground more times before falling below the minimum acceptable dimensions. |
| Substantially reduce machine downtime caused by tool
replacement. |
| Reduce the scrap rate for machined forgings and castings by
cryogenically treating prior to final machining for better stability and surface finish. |
| Enhance the wear resistance of steel and cemented carbide,
chromium or TiN coated tools and wear parts as well as copper resistance welding
electrodes. |
| Dimensionally stabilize metal optics and precision ground parts
prior to final polishing/grinding to produce a superior surface finish. |
| Stress relieve forgings and castings to ensure dimensional
stability during final machining. |
| Dimensionally stabilize nylon components. |
| Stress relieve metals for tear-free drawing. |
