Hot Isostatic Processing (HIP) involves the application of high pressure and temperatures through the medium of a pressurizing gas, such as Argon or Nitrogen, to remove internal porosity and voids, thus increasing density and upgrading properties. (read more)

Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) is a process that uniquely combines pressure and temperature to produce materials and parts with substantially better properties than other methods. The pressure medium is an inert gas, normaly Argon. (read more)

Plastomer Technologies can isostatically mold PTFE to create custom intricate shapes and near net size parts to save you time and money. Isostatic molding can be performed 15" in diameter to 30" long. (read more)

Cold Isostatic Pressing (CIP) is a method of compacting powders into green bodies and near-net shaped in a pressure vessel. The powder, which can be metallic, ceramic or graphite, is sealed in a flexible mold shaped like the end product. High pressure is used up to 600 MPa (6,000 bar/87,000 psi) having water as pressure medium. (read more)

The ideal assembly solution for medium, contoured, or complex thermoplastic parts. Designed for versatility and easy tooling changeover to accommodate a variety of parts. Typical applications include fuel tanks, reservoirs, taillight lenses, and vent ducts. The welder easily achieves hermetic seals, and finished part weld strength approaches that of the virgin material. (read more)

The process of hot plate welding uses a heated platen to melt the joining surfaces of the two halves of a thermoplastic part. Properly designed joints welded under precise process control often equal or exceeds the strength of any other part area. SEE ANSWERS TO FAQs & A VIDEO DEMONSTRATION (read more)
