Supports complex shapes with a water jet.
■Overview of Processing Example Product Name: Gasket with Openings / Dimensions: 40W × 90L × 1t, with long holes of 5 × 80 and small openings of 2 × 20 / This processing example features a gasket with openings made from fluorine rubber. By utilizing fluorine rubber, which excels in heat resistance, oil resistance, and chemical resistance, it demonstrates stable sealing performance even in harsh environments. The complex shape with long holes and small openings is achieved through water jet processing. This method allows for high-precision cutting without affecting the material's heat, minimizing dimensional errors caused by the elastic deformation characteristic of rubber. ■Product Features Fluorine rubber (FKM) is a top-tier material among synthetic rubbers. It boasts outstanding performance in heat resistance (up to 250°C), oil resistance, and chemical resistance. Its ability to be used stably in harsh environments makes it indispensable as a critical component in chemical plants and semiconductor manufacturing equipment; however, attention must be paid to its cold resistance and cost.

basic information
■Processing Method Water jet cutting is a water pressure cutting machine that uses high-pressure water to cut materials. It processes by spraying high-pressure water. By changing the spray nozzle according to the processing material, high-quality products can be produced in a short time. Additionally, the dimensional tolerances that were significantly affected by traditional manual processing are greatly improved, resulting in stable processing accuracy. The taper of the cut surface from press processing can also be improved with water jet processing. ■Q&A Q: In what environments can fluorine rubber be used? A: It has excellent heat resistance (up to 250°C), oil resistance, and chemical resistance, making it suitable for use in harsh environments such as chemical plants and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Q: What is the dimensional accuracy of the openings? A: Water jet processing allows for high-precision cutting of approximately ±0.1mm. Q: Is it possible to accommodate small lot sizes? A: We can handle prototypes and small lot sizes starting from one piece. Please feel free to consult with us.
