TURCITE

PTFE Slideway

DESCRIPTION

Turcite is PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) resins with added fillers such as bronze, that are extruded into solid billets as opposed to compression molding. One side is etched depending on application to accept the adhesive.

THRONETECH offers various thickness of Turcite for machine tool industry. Turcite is use for reducing the vibration when machining; it is suitable for all kinds of machine tools, including conventional, NC and CNC machines. With the Turcite, it can help to improve machine tool efficiencies and reduce stick-slip effect in machine transitions while still maintaining positioning accuracy and vibration damping, so the Turcite have been widely used in machine tool industry.

FEATURES

1. Reduce stick-slip effect in machine transitions.

2. Reduce the vibration and noise when machining.
3. Protect the slideways of machines and to extend the service life of machine.
4. Maintain positioning accuracy and vibration damping to enhance the stability of machine.

APPLICATIONS

  • Slideways on Conventional, NC and CNC Machine Tools
  • Grinders
  • Straight and Rotating Surface Slideways
  • Wood Working Machines
