ELIMINATE METAL BURRS WITH HIGH-PRECISION
THERMAL DEBURRING
WHAT IS THERMAL DEBURRING?
Thermal deburring (or thermal energy method deburring, TEM) is a process used to remove burrs, flash, or other unwanted material from metal or plastic parts by exposing them to a high-temperature combustion process. In this method, the parts are placed in a sealed chamber where a mixture of fuel gas and oxygen is ignited. The resulting rapid combustion generates intense heat that burns away small protrusions without affecting the base material. This technique is particularly useful for hard-to-reach areas, making it ideal for complex geometries or precision components.
