Growcontrols offers Shrink Fitting Systems for Producing Strong Joints. Growcontrols is an ISO 9001:2000 accredited company. The company manufactures high power inverters, rectifiers and power supplies for industrial and traction applications. The Shrink Fitting Systems for Producing Strong Joints is used for the interference fit type joint. By heating the mass around the bore hole uniformly, it is possible to significantly expand the size of the hole. The shaft is then easily inserted into the expanded hole. Upon cooling, the mass around the hole shrinks back to its original size and frictional forces create a highly effective joint.
