Modelling Foam


 

The Homeblown system relies on a computer controlled pouring machine.

To the best of our knowledge, blank manufacturers worldwide still pour the mixed resin into moulds by hand from a bucket. This inevitably leads to wastage, both from residual materials left in the bucket and also from the greater likelihood of variations in each pour, which tend to cause uneven foam quality.

The Homeblown system relies on a computer controlled pouring machine that ensures that foam is delivered precisely in the right amounts to each part of the mould. The result is astonishing consistency in production with minimal wastage of resources and by inference a dramatically reduced rubbish disposal problem which is becoming a major issue in the west.
