| Stationary systems |
In stationary systems, moulds or mould carriers are held immobile. All the operations of the entire cycle are carried out at the stations - in contrast to conveyor systems, in which the moulds are transported to the individual processing operations. |

|
| Principle |
| Foam can be applied by means of a hand-held jib boom, a robot or a fixed mixing head.
Each station is fitted with the necessary protective devices. |
| Technology |
| Stationary systems are mainly used where the process requires the mixing heads to be fixed on the mould, and the material is foamed into the closed mould. In addition, some applications require mould carriers with an inherent weight of 50 tonnes or more. These mould carriers are too heavy to be transported with conveyor systems. Stationary systems are also used in applications in which it is easier to take the mixing head to the mould than the mould to the mixing head. Stationary systems are also used for parts that are produced in relatively small quantities. |
| Customer benefits |
- Stationary systems reduce the investment costs for small production runs.
- Stationary systems are simple in construction and can be expanded to meet requirements.
- Stationary systems permit simple logistics to be used, appropriate to the particular mould.
