Polyurethane - make it possible
Polyurethane is a so called duromer-plastic, which results from mixing a minimum of two components. The mould can be filled partially (material foams up) or completely (compact at a density of more than 1 kg/m3). A distinction is made between soft, elastic and hard systems although there is no strict borderline. Therefor this plastic material offers many possibilities. Polyurethane is recyclable.
- Empirically only 30 % mould-productioncosts compared to injection moulding
- Small manufacturing tolerances possible
- High stiffness with increasing densitiy
- Extensive design options
- Problem of sink marks can be ignored
- Less costs due to the option of variating wallthicknesses which enables a simplified construction of parts and moulds
- Option of inflammability (B2 or UL 94 V-0)
- Accoustic and thermal insulation
- Elastic characteristics feasible
- Haptically-decorative surfaces
- Good mechanical properties and great resistance to chemicals
- High weather resistance
- Excellent paintability
- Also efficient in small and mediumsized quantities
The application areas are diverse
Generally we are able to offer all usual 2-components PUR systems (cold systems). Our production facilities can be adapted or set up according to our customers requirements. Various dosing systems enable a performance of 100 kg in 7 s and our presses offer closing forces from 30 tons up to 400 tons.
