Machines: producing cast polyurethane parts at scale

Given the growing requirements placed on cast polyurethane parts, industrialized manufacturing processes are essential to ensure consistently high-quality production. Low-pressure processing equipment is crucial to this task. Our Baulé® machines reliably prepare, meter and mix materials, and are designed for accuracy, flexibility and user-friendliness.

The concepts that shape the Baulé® processing machines

In-depth molding know-how combined with our expertise of polyurethane chemistry, our knowledge in cast urethane applications as well as our in-house engineering make Baulé® machines efficient tools for the successful production of cast polyurethane parts. Because these machines are intended to enable reliable material preparation, precise metering, optimal mixing technology and an excellent process control, all of the machine technology follows a set of key principles:

  • Flexibility: upgradeable design, custom-tailored capabilities and versatile formulation processing
  • Productivity: full shift efficiency, consistent process quality and limited material waste
  • Reliability: reduced maintenance, accurate metering and process parameter control
  • User-friendliness: smart and intuitive interface, convenient daily operation and easy maintenance access.

High-quality industrial cast polyurethane processing

With decades of experience in the cast elastomers industry, Covestro has been continuously improving its machine technology. The goal is to provide molders and manufacturers with the perfect metering and processing equipment to meet their needs at any time. We aim to create superior and scalable casting machines for standard or special processes as well as associated on-line support services.
