Cryogenic Flash Removal: An Effective and Innovative Method Gaining Popularity in the Rubber Industry

Cryogenic flash delashing  is an extremely effective and innovative method that is gaining increasing popularity in the rubber industry.

In Gumet’s production process, cryogenic flash removal is employed using liquid nitrogen, a substance with an extremely low temperature. This advanced cleaning process is an efficient method for removing rubber flash and other unwanted fragments from product surfaces. The process is based on the controlled cooling of flash using liquid nitrogen, which causes the flash to become brittle and hardened.

Once the flash has been vitrified, it can be easily removed using a stream of granulate that separates the flash from the product. This innovative technique ensures effective removal of even hard-to-reach flash while minimizing the risk of damage to the rubber structure.

The cryogenic flash removal process offers many advantages, including precision, speed, and a low risk of mechanical damage. It is also an environmentally friendly method because the liquid nitrogen evaporates without leaving any chemical residues on the product. By applying this technology, Gumet achieves excellent quality of rubber products by eliminating all unwanted fragments and flash, which translates into customer satisfaction and production efficiency.
