Trim and Finishes



Finished Parts Without Secondary Trimming...

Along with compound selection, choice of manufacturing method, and tool design, the method by which the excess rubber or flashing is removed is determined. Deflashing is accomplished by either hand trimming, machine trimming, or by the use of cryogenics.

By properly designing the mold, the flash extension and thickness can be kept at a minimum, resulting in a finished part that is frequently acceptable to the customer right out of the mold, without any secondary trimming.
