Foam Equipment is now proud to provide customers with Teubert’s innovative ATECARMA® Chemical Interaction Bonding Process. Past barriers hindered product development and innovation. But with the Activator Temperature Efficiency Combination Automatization Resources Multi-material Adaption (ATECARMA®) process, you can now produce hybrid components in a single operation, crossing existing barriers and realizing new ideas that weren’t possible before
Teubert’s new ATECARMA® process allows you to manufacture particle foam and hybrid parts using bead foams, fabric, metal, plastic, wood and more without the use of steam or water. The following is a high-level look at the process of creating particle foam using resource-efficient ATECARMA® production equipment.
In the first stage of the manufacturing process, the selected particle foam is treated with a pollutant-free activator and then dried. This helps create a functionalization of the beads’ surface.
The pre-treated beads are then filled into the shaping tool for processing. Then indirect tempering of the mold results in a critically important chemical reaction.
At this stage, the foam particles are bonded to each other and optionally bonded to both the composite materials and inserts. The planned molded part is then finalized, produced and finished.
