Corrugated Metal Diaphragms
The team at PrecisionX Group is proud to specialize in custom metal diaphragms, which we create using advanced tool designs and sophisticated power press technology.
Our Metal Diaphragm Manufacturing Capabilities
Metal diaphragms are available in a variety of materials and sizes, and can be used in many different applications.
PrecisionX Group offers metal diaphragms made of:
The ideal profile shape will depend on specific pressure, cycle life, and deflection requirements; we offer design and engineering services to help you determine the perfect custom metal diaphragm for your needs. We offer a wide selection of standard-catalog corrugated diaphragms, ranging in size from 1” to 3” in diameter.
Corrugated vs. Flat Metal Diaphragms
Put simply, metal diaphragms are thin, circular plates that elastically deform when subjected to axial loading or pressure. These mechanical seals are typically manufactured by forming a thin metal sheet into a ripple shape.
Depending on their intended use, metal diaphragms can be corrugated, domed, or flat; corrugated types are the most versatile and widely used. Flat diaphragms can usually be mass-produced, but corrugated diaphragms require a proprietary tool for the manufacturing process. They have greater deformability and a linear characteristic curve.
The Benefits of Using Corrugated Metal Diaphragms
There are a number of advantages to using corrugated metal diaphragms.
Corrugated diaphragms allow for higher deflection than flat diaphragms, at the same working pressure. Studies have also shown that the sensitivity of corrugated diaphragms can be easily controlled by changing parameters such as the thickness of the sheet metal it’s stamped from, the depth of corrugation, and the pitch of corrugation.
Common Applications for Corrugated Metal Diaphragms
Corrugated metal diaphragms are ideal for high-pressure applications and high-temperature applications, such as mechanical seals, edge-welded bellows, pressure transducers, pneumatic modular instruments, electronic control instruments, and medical devices.
These diaphragms can be used to achieve various goals, including:
