APT's dependable line of Teflon® PTFE compression molding equipment,
custom designed and built by APT, insures that our processing
performance is consistent from one material lot to the next.PTFE part during automatic compression molding

Our automatic PTFE compression molding equipment, with operational ranges from 10 to 300 tons of pressure, provides us with the capability to mold parts from 1/16” thick to *36” long (*utilizing a fusion technique).

APT's PTFE compression molding tooling is custom designed in-house. Higher volume molding projects leverage cost savings obtained through the use of molded nearnet shapes.  Nearnet shapes minimize the amount of excess material required to obtain
a finished piece and subsequently reduce machining time. Time & material savings are ultimately compared to the initial cost of tooling to determine a volume level that supports a custom tool.


APT's PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) molding processes include:

PCTFE (Polychlorotrifluoroethylene) is a high performance thermoplastic with unique properties that include rigidity, toughness, cold flow and stress crack resistant. Suitable as a valve component material
for cyrogenic fluid service. PCTFE maintains its properties over a wide thermal range.
