Reaction injection moulding systems
In contrast to production of complete moulded parts or semi-finished goods by physical means, the primary step in production of polyurethane parts involves a chemical reaction that occurs at the processor Reliable production equipment for this process is available to manufacture the greatest variety of parts. Starting from low-pressure and high-pressure machine technology, the present article briefly discusses the necessary machine components. The many different approaches to system technology are classified as either continuous or discontinuous in nature.
