Meta-lax/bonal metal stress/weld conditioning
Thermal stress is caused by a sharp temperature drop in metal. It creates problems of distortion (immediately following machining or over time) and premature cracking. "Stress relieving" reduces these effects.
It may be helpful to relate Meta-Lax to "thermal" stress relief in that both induce internal accelerated motion in the metal to cause stress relief. It also may be helpful to compare Meta-Lax to "natural aging" in that both do not cause heat side effects like scaling, softening, or reducing mechanical properties.
Meta-Lax processing usually takes 1/2 to 2 hours for application and does not cause treatment distortion.
Meta-Lax Stress Relief- 1. A patented process by Bonal that relieves thermal stress within metal components by using nondestructive sub-harmonic vibrations. 2. Metal relaxation.
Meta-Lax process and shows how Bonal achieves consistantly great results.
The application of Bonal's patented
Meta-Lax process and equipment "during welding."

Meta-Lax Weld Conditioning will relieve the thermal stresses as they are being introduced during weld solidification. This procedure produces several desirable benefits for the weld metal and the heat affected zone. Two major benefits are the minimizing, if not totally eliminating, weld cracking and weld distortion.
Other benefits include welding faster by increasing amperage which also allows deeper weld penetration. Metallurgically, Meta-Lax Weld Conditioning produces a finer, more uniform weld grain structure, thus improving the weld's mechanical properties and ultimate fatigue life. Weld ductility, in particular, is increased as much as 400% over a non-weld-conditioned weld!
Another important benefit of Meta-Lax Weld Conditioning is that in many applications it stress relieves the weldment, therefore no additional post weld stress relief is needed.
THIS is a complete Systems with A dataGraph to fully document the Stress relief Process. The System retails for over 24,000 it is in perfect operating condition. A spare force inducer is available at an additional charge.
