In Gontenschwil, Emaform AG produces customer-specific moulded parts made of polyurethane for various industrial sectors. Using state-of-the-art foaming technology, we manufacture PUR housings, enclosures and technical parts from integral rigid foam and compact material. Our ISO 9001:2015-certified production facility with 60 employees offers high delivery flexibility, short delivery times and, on request, complete solutions including painting and assembly.
The liquid raw materials polyol and isocyanate are stored in large raw material tanks or IBC containers. From there, the raw materials are transported via a piping system to the premixing stations and then to the day tanks.
The raw materials are transported from the day tanks to the respective mixing head via mixing machines, which ensures precise metering of both components.
The two components are mixed under high pressure in the respective mixing head and then injected into the closed mould via an injection system.
The respective moulds are clamped on the around 20 different mould carriers. The opening and closing of these moulds, as well as any hydraulic valves, takes place via a control system.
If necessary, inserts are added to the opened moulds before the mould is closed and the foaming process is initiated. Once the material has fully reacted, the mould is opened and the moulded part can be removed. If the tools are not in production, they are safely stored in our separate mould warehouse.
The blanks are deburred during reworking. In the case of any painting, the parts are prepared in accordance with the agreed requirements. Special reworking or variants are carried out on CNC machining centres.
The parts are painted according to customer requirements in different paint booths. Structured coatings, smooth or high-gloss coatings, but also special coatings such as conductive or soft-touch coatings can be used. Our range of services also includes printing (screen printing or pad printing) in collaboration with proven specialists.
Various assembly work for delivered or directly procured components can also be carried out on request. If required, we take over the entire supply chain management (SCM) from the production of blanks through all processes involved in the individual production of moulded parts and complex assemblies.
After the final inspections, the finished parts or assemblies are labelled and professionally packed. Depending on the requirements, special packaging or reusable containers can also be used. Our generous storage capacities enable flexible inventory management. Deliveries are carried out on time with external transport service providers.
