Patented method of producing flexible PU foam in a vertical direction
Produces a perfectly rectangular or round block with minimum skin loss, with an improved utilisation of chemicals and full size blocks of foam at relatively low chemical outputs
The Vertifoam plant can be supplied with a vertical tunnel for the production of standard rectangular blocks or if preferred for the production of round blocks
For square and round blocks
Produces either round or rectangular flexible PU foam
Advantages
Optimum cylindrical block production with perfect block shape
Skin scrap is reduced because there are no high density top, bottom or side skins
Environmentally efficient - low TDI emission compared to other processes
The vertical process creates less density variation in the foam and a more uniform hardness
Reduced foam loss at start and shutdown of production
Considerable reduction in floor area requirements due to the fact that Vertifoam makes foam in a vertical direction
The design of the plant enables large cross section blocks to be produced at very low output
The air extraction required with this process is considerably less than with conventional systems and this has the effect of reducing the cost of air conditioning or heating
Minimum skin losses because the heavy top and bottom skins do not arise and all four sides exhibit only very light signs of skins and, for many applications, there is no need for trimming
Accurate rectangular or round blocks are automatically produced by this process
Better physical property distribution through the block, giving lower variation in density and therefore considerable savings are effected - uniform density distribution and uniform hardness
Color and grade changes are possible during the run within a distance of 15 to 20 cm
Considerably reduced start/stop losses, normally under one metre and the process is therefore suitable for small efficient production from 500 to 4,000 tonnes per year
A typical plant can be run with only three men
