Cryogenic Timber


Tooling Treatment

COLDfire - the production advantage for Timber

Hi-Tech Savings in Time and Money to


the Timber Industry

The unique COLDfire cryogenic tooling treatment offers a significant increase in abrasive wear resistance and durability.  The increases in tensile strength, toughness and stability coupled with the release of internal residual stresses are unavailable in conventional treatments. This one-time, through material treatment improves the entire structure, not just the surface, giving your components unsurpassed stability and wear properties. Even better, the tools can be resharpened in the same manner and provide the same increase performance and wear for the entire life of the component. 

Users of the COLDfire cryogenic process have reported up to a four fold increase in the usable life of some tooling components and consumables. For cabinet and furniture makers COLDfire cryogenics allows not just longer life of blades and cutters but importantly a smoother finish due to the retention of sharpness which minimizes sanding and finishing.

For timber mills, tree loppers and other industrial users of COLDfire results in chippers, chain saw blades, band and circular saws and profile cutters achieving productivity increases up to four times.

COLDfire represents a major technological breakthrough for Industry with benefits including: 

• Less Downtime for repair and replacement of parts
• Increased wearability and service life of components
• Decreased wear of consumables means less tooling purchases
• Higher profits
• Better performance of components leading to increased production levels
• Risk reduction benefits improve Occupational Health & Safety applications.

Remember Everything wears out sooner or later, 

COLDfire gives you the opportunity of making it  MUCH LATER!
