Foam machinery can be used to cushion rebound elastic components, integral skin, and hard raw materials such rotational moulded products, bus and chair upholstery, panels, shoe heels, transmission compressors, and hollow constructions. Additionally, the polyurethane rubber is strong and does not disintegrate.
There are high-pressure PU foam machines available that provide low-cost work for extensively reduced foaming in a variety of industrial applications. These have a simple and compact open structural system for straightforward deployment, as well as quick and trouble-free adjustment of production parameters, excellent performance statistics, and low running costs. These are popular among consumers because of their user-friendliness, ease of installation, better performance, and low maintenance requirements. These Polyurethane Foaming Machines are built in accordance with industry standards to provide superior efficiency and significantly longer life.
There are three basic PU foam cutting machines;
- Horizontal Cutting Machine to cut PU foam blocks into sheets.
- Circular Cutting Machine to create a dependable method for cutting flexible PU foam blocks to the required thickness.
- Vertical Cutting Machine to trim the sides of flexible PU foam blocks.
Types Of Foam Machinery
1) For Dis-Continuous Foaming
- Batch Foam Machine (basic)
With a one-block-at-a-time technique, batch foam machines are used to make flexible PU foam blocks. They’re low-cost machines designed for low-volume manufacturing. Capacity up to 30 to 40 blocks per 8-hour density 10 to 32.
- Batch Foam Machine (standard)
Batch foam machines are also used to create flexible PU foam blocks using a one-block-at-a-time process. Although, they require 9 KW power. They’re low-cost machines made for small-scale production. Capacity up to 30 to 40 blocks per 8-hour density 10 to 32.
- Batch Foam Machine (PT)
The model allows the former to accurately measure the two primary compounds, polyol and TDI. This improves uniformity in output while also simplifying the process.
- Batch Foam Machine (Automatic)
The automatic version of the batch foam machine is ideal for medium-scale production facilities that require the least amount of manual labour. This machine includes tanks, pumps, pipelines, and return valves for re-circulation, as well as complete metering lines for all chemicals.
2) For Continuous Foaming
- Continuous Foaming Machine (FM225)
The FM225 is a piece of entry-level equipment for Max-Foam Process manufacturing of flexible PU foam blocks. Blocks of the desired length can be sliced using a block cut-off machine at the conveyor’s terminus.
- Continuous Foaming Machine (FM300)
The FM300 is an elevated machine that produces a continuous slab of flexible PU foam with a flat top and is simple to use. Blocks of the proper size can be sliced using a block cut-off machine at the conveyor’s terminus. This equipment has a three-conveyor system as well as a huge touch panel for operation (PLC-Touch Panel). All trial and production recipes can be saved in the PLC memory and retrieved quickly.
- Continuous Foaming Machine (FM400)
The FM400 is a high-capacity machine that produces a continuous slab of flexible PU foam with a flat top and is simple to use. Blocks of the desired length can be sliced using a block cut-off machine at the conveyor’s terminus. This machine has a three-conveyor system as well as a huge touch panel for operation (PLC-Touch Panel). All trial and production recipes can be saved in the PLC memory and retrieved quickly. It comes with a three-conveyor system, recipe storing and retrieval, online density and colour-changing, and a top-film framework for achieving square block Profile.
