As a manufacturer specializing in screws, bimetallic barrels, and surface engineering technologies, TAN STAR INDUSTRIES INC. provides PTA Welding solutions designed to help processors improve durability and maintain stable production performance in demanding plastic processing environments.

Understanding how shot peening influences residual stress is essential for manufacturers seeking higher reliability and longer component service life.

When selecting a screw for abrasive plastic applications, one of the most common questions manufacturers face is whether to choose a bimetallic screw or a nitrided screw.

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), commonly known by the brand name Teflon, is one of the most chemically resistant and high-temperature polymers used in modern manufacturing.

Modern plastic processing with glass-reinforced and flame-retardant resins creates extreme wear and corrosion on screws and barrels. Since traditional hardening methods often fail under these abrasive conditions, HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel) Spray Coating has emerged as the premier solution.
