Soft foam processing

Weischaum Liegeschale

The newly founded SITZFORMEN department builds on these many years of experience. In cooperation with our in-house plastics technician in the medical sector, we supply medical supply stores and orthopaedic mechanics with milled parts from the orthopaedic sector.

We mill individual, very precise and high-quality orthopaedic restorations for you according to your specifications. To do this, we need 3D scan data or a plaster cast from you.

Our experienced, highly qualified team in the field of 3D modeling and CNC form milling will take care of your request. With our 5-axis milling machines, we offer you high-quality processing of various foam materials, e.g:

Frame foam (white)

Weischaum Sorte weiss

Frame Foam is a PU (polyurethane) soft foam with a density of approx. 32kg/m³.
It is an extremely light and stable material that is very easy to sand, carve and finish.

Compression hardness at 40% deformation is approx. 14 kPa.

Polyester HDH (anthracite)

Weischaum Sorte anthrazit

Polyester HDH is also a soft foam with a density of approx. 32kg/m³. The physical properties are very similar to Frame Foam, but mechanically the foam is slightly softer.

Compression hardness at 40% deformation is approx. 11 kPa.

PU soft foam (white)

Weischaum Sorte weiss

PU soft foam (white) is a classic polyurethane foam with a density of approx. 50 kg/m³. This foam has a soft and pleasant surface. PU soft foam is often used for reclining shells or hip/leg supports. Some orthopaedic mechanics also use it for the seat shells.

Compression hardness at 40% deformation is approx. 7.5 kPa.

Polyether B (gray)

Weischaum Sorte grau

Polyether B (gray) is a high-quality PU flexible foam with a density of approx. 75 kg/m³. This foam is usually used for a sitting or reclining shell for heavier patients. Compressive stress is 40 %, deformation approx. 9.5 [kPa].

Compression hardness at 40% deformation is approx. 9.5 kPa.
