Kathi Bond founded CryoPlus, Inc. in 1994 to provide cryogenic service to the woodworking, stamping, tool and die, shearing, slitting, welding, punching, musical, shooting and racing industries. The process of deep freezing metal parts makes the internal structure more uniform, durable and stronger. Cryo processing increases abrasive wear with one permanent treatment.

The processor utilizes the refrigeration capacity of liquid nitrogen in a batch process that is controlled by a microprocessor. Liquid nitrogen flows through a spray distribution system inside the chamber and is vaporized into an expanded gas. The circulation fan inside the chamber ensures proper transfer of heat during the process. It is designed to process parts at -300°F as well as heat materials to +350°F.
