KTR Polyurethane processing:
Moulded parts with individual properties, optimally combined
We process polyurethanes by gravitation as well as by injection. The gravitation processing of polyurethanes provides several practical advantages. Solid basic components are processed to moulded parts by pressing or injection moulding. Liquid components of cast polyurethane however products, can be casted to complex moulded parts of all sizes without any plasticisers. The necessary casting moulds are easy to produce and therefore very cost-effective. After a very short processing time they can already be de-formed. Only afterwards, out of the mould, we give them their optimal microstructure by tempering. In this process we can systematically dose the components inserted to the formula to adjust a broad range of properties – for example shore hardness – to your specific demands. However, when small-dimensioned polyurethane articles are produced in large numbers, the injection process is our method of choice.
