Rampf: Bio-based sealing solutions

The system supplier will be exhibiting at the WVIB (Association of industrial companies based in the Baden region) joint stand, where it will be presenting its solutions for sealing, casting, bonding and designing based on renewable raw materials. The starting materials for new plastics with improved mechanical properties are natural raw materials such as vegetable oils, maize, wood (lignin) and greases.

Rampf DC-CNC low-pressure system

To demonstrate the capabilities of material and machinery the sister companies Rampf Dosiertechnik and Rampf Giessharze will show a live demonstration where a newly developed thixotropic soft integral foam "live" is applied with a DC-CNC low-pressure mixing and dispensing unit. Raku-PUR 32-3275 is a two-component system based on polyurethane that contains no solvents or plasticisers. Its water absorption is said to be less than 5 %. Further benefits include high mechanical strength, short tack-free time and therefore fast installation and high-quality seal.

The compact DC-CNC dispensing cell is well-suited for the 2D or 3D application of casting, sealing and adhesive systems. The basic set-up of the fully enclosed DC-CNC is equipped with an integrated control cabinet and a 2-component material conditioning system. Further features include a Siemens Sinumerik modular control system and integrated process control for continuous monitoring of pressure, fill level and speed. The mixing and dispensing system can optionally be equipped with a high-pressure rinse agent recycling system, high-pressure water rinsing or various items of automation equipment depending on the application in question.
