Bonal Technologies, Inc. discovered and refined the sub-harmonic vibration stress relief equipment and technology in its own planer-mill machine shop where close distortion control was demanded, and consistency of effectiveness was essential. Consistency is what makes Meta-Lax processing unique to the vibration stress relief industry. Consistency is why Meta-Lax stress relief is typically used in place of heat treat (thermal) stress relief, not just when heat stress relief cannot be used. And consistency is why “META-LAX” sub-harmonic stress relief so widely single-sourced and specified on drawings around the country and around the world.
It may be reassuring to know that Meta-Lax treated parts have gone to the moon, gone to Mars, and are in the International Space Station. Closer to home, other Meta-Lax treated parts have shot down enemy missiles, beats in people’s chest, won the Indianapolis 500, and locks river water in place.
