Dosing station RimStar

Overview
RimStar metering machine for polyurethane (PU): a modular metering system composed of configurable high-end modules. Designed for precise dosing and flexible integration into diverse PU processing lines, the RimStar supports customer-specific configurations and process variants.

Key product information
Precise dosing, modular configuration and service-friendly design define the RimStar series.

• Engineering focused on process reliability and reproducible results
• Precise control engineering for exact dosing and metering to ensure component consistency
• Proven tank concept: double-walled tank as standard
• Component temperature control via heating cartridges in the tank shell or via plate heat exchangers in flow, return and bypass
• Designed for straightforward operation and maintenance to minimise downtime

Use cases / Industries
The RimStar is suitable for a wide range of PU processing applications and industries, including:

• Insulation & cooling technology (e.g. cool boxes, freezers, insulated doors)
• Automotive (e.g. instrument panels, steering wheels, integral foaming, cable harnesses)
• Infrastructure & construction (e.g. pipe insulation)
• Medical, pharmaceutical & cosmetics (e.g. training manikins, protective components)
• Packaging, logistics and circular economy material applications

Application examples

• Metering and mixing for consistent polyurethane dosing and uniform component quality
• Foaming tools and plant technology for backing textiles or overfoaming carriers prior to laminating (e.g. console armrests)
• Production of insulated housings and components for refrigeration and freezer applications using PU foam
