THERMOFORMING OF PTFE / TFM MEMBRANES, DIAPHRAGMS
Specialists in thermoforming of PTFE / TFM membranes and diaphragms for sealing applications.
Diaphragms separate the pumped fluid from the internal components of the pump. They need to withstand high pressures, temperature variations, steam cleaning cycles, while maintaining shape, flexibility, and optimal sealing.
In terms of strength and service life, modified PTFE offers the best results. By incorporating reinforcing ribs in the PTFE and vulcanizing it onto a rubber support membrane, the material can flex more easily, reducing stress, increasing the diaphragm's lifespan, and facilitating installation.
