Your partner for success


Robotek is specialist of mixing and dispensing systems for two or multi-component polyurethane and foam gaskets for sealing, casting, encapsulating and bonding.

 

We consult you for planning, design, sample production, system configuration and supply you solutions from individual dispensing machine up to fully automated robot cells or turn-key integrated production lines.

 

Developing high quality customized solutions individually aligned to customer's requirement is challenge of our Research and Development team.

 

Your continuous production is maintained with delivery from stock for spare parts, comprehensive product manuals and customer training programs. With a team of expert designers, application engineers, sales specialists and service technicians, Robotek is focused on not only meeting customer expectations, but always exceeding them.

 

Basic Process

 

Two components, Polyol and Isocyanate are metered, mixed and dispensed into a groove or onto a surface at room temperature in Formed-in-Place-Foam-Gasket (FIPFG) process for the production of polyurethane thixotropic or liquid foam gaskets.

 

Supplied Gasket Types

 

Compact Gaskets (FIPG: Formed-In-Place-Gasket)

Unfoamed in-situ gaskets are produced from polymerization without change of volume. They can be adjusted from liquid to pastely.

 

Liquid Foam Gaskets (FIPFG: Formed-In-Place-Foam-Gasket)

Liquid foam gaskets require a distinctive groove and a plain surface. They are selfleveling.

 

Thixotropic Foam Gaskets (FIPFG: Formed-In-Place-Foam-Gasket)

High-thixotropic gasket systems, which can be applied with or without groove. They are excellent suitable for the application of three-dimensional surfaces, and even for inclined surfaces.

 		 

Advantages of dispensed polyurethane foam gaskets

  • Reduce inventory and procurement costs by replacing multiple foam gaskets with one liquid product

  • Lower labour costs through precise, robotic application

  • Excellent suited for series production particularly for large-volume production

  • Superior quality compared to a manual foam tape/gasket application

  • Save money and time during the prototype and testing stages — can be applied to parts in minutes

  • Waterproof due to the integral skin

  • Meets high quality standards (e.g. IP 67, high pressure water steam jet tests)

  • Uniform gasket with a neat coupling. No seams or joints to leak

  • Easy compensation of component tolerances

  • Low assembly forces needed due to the mixed-cell foam structure

  • Excellent compression set

  • Precise material adjustment to meet the specifications of the application

  • Three-dimensional and complex thixotropic seals

  • Does not require heat or light for curing and will not become liquid on re-heating

  • Conforms to surface irregularities

  • Accurate placement within ± 0.01cm

  • Uses low-pressure equipment. Provides improved operator safety

  • Increased production speed. Gaskets can be applied at a rate of 300mm per second and reach tack-free cure in 5 to 30 minutes

  • Self-adhesion. No adhesive required

  • Ambient temperature application. No heating costs

  • Automated meter-mix equipment can be programmed to dispense quickly and accurately in different shapes and sizes
