Plastics

Semi-Finished, Molded, Turned & Milled Parts.

Description
Our focus in plastics is on processing PTFE material for structural components, like plug inserts and accessories, V-collars, seat rings, bellows, bearing shells, cover gaskets, pig components, and O-rings. For the majority of these parts, we use the high-quality materials supplied by Dyneon®. The most popular materials include the modified compounds 3M™ Dyneon™ TFM™ 1600, 1700, 4105, and 3M™ Dyneon™ TF 1602; other materials with fillers made of conductive pigment, graphite, or bronze are also available as standard options. The manufacturing and processing of plastic molded parts to specifications from drafts, drawings, or patterns is done on state-of-the-art CNC machines [e.g., milled, water jet shape cutting, CNC/NC turned, seamless processing up to Ø 1,600 mm]. The semi-finished parts are also manufactured in our own in-house production to ensure flexibility and value even in small production quantities.

Other finished parts upon request.

Material

The multitude of possible material combinations allows the development of optimised solutions, which are generally influenced by prevalent mechanical, chemical, and thermal conditions. The structure of the expansion joint is generally based on the following material groups:

Insulation material ­ in an appropriate thickness and quality ­ will prevent thermal as well as mechanical damage to the actual sealing foil. The most frequently used insulation material fabrics are glass fiber, silicate fibers, and ceramic fibers.
The sealing foil is the actual sealing component of an expansion joint. It is generally sandwiched between two layers of fabric. The most frequently used sealing foils are made of elastomeres, PTFE, or stainless steel.
Positioned on the outside of the sealing foil, the carrier foil [ge nerally coated] provides the necessary compression strength and dimensional stability. The most frequently used carrier fa brics are made from polyester, aramid, glass fiber, or silicate fibers.
The carrier fabric is protected by a coating of various elastomeres, which additionally supports the shape of the expansion joint, and serves as the actual sealing element in simpler construction elements. The most frequently used coatings include neoprene, EPDM, hypalon, silicon, viton, and PTFE.
