Industrial Cast Polyurethane Elastomer Solution

End-to-end casting systems tailored for industrial rollers, screens, and wear liners. Combining vacuum falling-film degassing with dynamic servo-metered dispensing for elastomer casting with agreed process and inspection criteria.

Production Line Planning

Turnkey Engineering for High-Performance CPU Components

Industrial elastomers operate under severe conditions including extreme abrasion, cyclic mechanical fatigue, and aggressive chemical exposure. Traditional manual batch processing frequently introduces thermal gradients and atmospheric micro-voids that trigger premature product failure. Haifeng’s Cast Polyurethane Elastomer (CPU) Solution eliminates these variables through automated closed-loop temperature control, vacuum falling-film degassing, and synchronized multi-component dynamic dispensing.

Continuous Micro-Void Elimination

Multi-stage thin-film falling vessels operating below 0.08 kPa strip moisture and micro-bubbles before casting, preventing internal porosity in thick-walled parts.

Dynamic Thermal Uniformity

Independent thermal oil circulation loops insulate storage vessels, metering pumps, and delivery hoses up to 140°C to handle high-melting crosslinkers like MOCA without precipitation.

From standalone three-component casting skids to fully automated multi-station carousel lines, our solutions ensure consistent material stoichiometry and high molecular density across every production batch.

Manufacturing Workflow

End-to-End CPU Casting Workflow

An integrated engineering sequence delivering complete chemical conditioning, precise metering, and controlled curing.

01

Material Preparation & Vacuum Thin-Film Degassing

Prepolymer and polyol streams undergo continuous heating and are passed through falling-film vacuum chambers to eliminate entrapped micro-air and residual moisture before feeding.

TANK VACUUM ≤ 0.08 KPA; TEMP UP TO 140°C
02

Closed-Loop Precision Dosing

High-accuracy rotary gear pumps drive components through heated supply lines. Coriolis mass flow meters measure mass flow rates continuously to dynamically eliminate ratio drifts.

STOICHIOMETRIC RATIO TOLERANCE WITHIN ±0.3%
03

High-Shear Homogeneous Dynamic Mixing

The component streams meet within a variable-speed dynamic mixing head. Special rotor profiles prevent thermal buildup while achieving thorough physical blending across different viscosities.

Engineering Considerations

Engineering Advantages of Haifeng CPU Systems

Designed to solve common processing defects including voiding, ratio drift, and thermal degradation.

Void-Free Component Integrity

Combined high vacuum and high-shear laminar mixing eliminate structural cavities, enhancing part dynamic fatigue and tear strength.

Precise Temperature Uniformity

Full fluid-path thermal oil circulation prevents localized chilling, eliminating resin freezing and crystallization in high-temperature systems.

Flexible Multi-Component Dosing

Dedicated micro-metering valves allow colorants and catalysts to be added directly at the head, enabling rapid hardness changes without flushing lines.

Lower Material Waste

Snuffer cut-off valves combined with automated solvent and air purge cycles minimize chemical loss during shot transitions.
