Flame Deflashing

FTS Technologies have designed and developed a complete line of flame deflashing equipment specifically intended to facilitate high volume injection molding facilities produce a more consistent part of higher quality by eliminating existing manual deflashing operations. 

FTS Technologies flame deflashing units use the patented Cirqual® Burner technology that produces a highly consistent circular flame and an exceptionally large process window for optimum deflashing.  The use of the Cirqual® Burner places less emphasis on maintaining a perfect burner-to-target distance, with the dynamic of the burner easily accommodating for fluctuations in burner-to-target distance and part geometry.  These unique benefits will allow production personnel to write robot programs faster, utilize faster robot speeds, improve product quality and consistency, and deflash a greater surface area of the part without compromising the overall molding cycle time.

Flame deflashing has historically been the bottleneck in the injection molding process, with manufacturers constantly balancing part quality against the requirement for faster cycle times to meet volume demands.  The use of FTS Technologies flame deflashing system and Cirqual® Burner technology has eliminated the bottleneck, allowing for the most complex of parts be 100% deflashed well within current molding press cycle times.
