Manufacturing Process and Delivery Our custom gaskets made from Klinger KLINGERSil C-4400 are produced using advanced CNC-controlled water jet cutting machines. This technology provides precision and flexibility in cutting gaskets into any desired shape, provided you supply DXF/DWG files. The process is designed to deliver accurate and consistent products that meet your specific requirements.
Steps in the Manufacturing Process
- Design and Specification: The process begins with gathering the exact specifications and design requirements from the customer. This includes analyzing technical drawings and preparing CAD files that will guide the cutting process.
- Material Preparation: The appropriate thickness and dimensions of KLINGERSil C-4400 sheets are chosen based on the application requirements. These sheets are typically available in thicknesses ranging from 0.5 mm to 3 mm.
- CNC Water Cutting: Using CNC-controlled water jet cutting machines, the sheets are precisely cut according to the specifications in the CAD files. This process ensures a high degree of accuracy and minimizes material waste.
- Quality Control: After cutting, the gaskets undergo thorough quality control to ensure they meet the specified requirements and standards. Each product is tested for its sealing properties, dimensions, and integrity.
- Shipping and Delivery: The finished gaskets are carefully packaged and shipped to the customer. We ensure fast and efficient delivery so your project can proceed without delays.
Ordering Terms For all custom gaskets, a minimum order quantity of 50 euros excluding VAT applies. This condition helps us maintain the highest quality standards and ensures efficient production and delivery processes.
How to Customize Gaskets Customizing gaskets requires precise specifications and a good understanding of application needs. Here are some steps to help in making the right choices for your sealing requirements:
- Analyze Needs: Start with a thorough analysis of the sealing application. What temperatures, pressures, and media will the gasket encounter? This information is crucial for selecting the right material.
- Material Selection: Klinger KLINGERSil C-4400 is an excellent choice for applications requiring high pressure and temperatures, as well as chemical resistance against oils, fuels, and aggressive media.
- Design Preparation: Use CAD software to create your gasket design. Ensure dimensions are accurate and designs are saved in DXF/DWG format for use in the CNC cutting system.
- Prototyping and Testing: If possible, create a prototype of the gasket to test fit and function. This helps identify any necessary adjustments before full-scale production begins.
- Production: Once the design is approved, production starts with cutting the gaskets from the flat sheets of KLINGERSil C-4400. The CNC water cutting process ensures precision and quality.
- Installation: After delivery, install the gaskets according to the manufacturer’s specifications and perform a final check to ensure all seals are correctly placed and functioning as expected.
