(SIP) Structural Insulated Panel LaminatingLiquid PUR Systems WITH BEAD EXTRUDERSLiquid PUR Systems Liquid PUR Systems

SIP LIQUID POLYURETHANE SYSTEMS with Bead ExtrudersMidwest Automation, is a leading manufacturer of structural insulated panel (SIP) laminating systems, including PUR systems are designed to dispense one-part, moisture cure polyurethane adhesives that are not compatible in a roll coating process. These extremely fast curing products have been specifi cally formulated as a structural adhesive for laminating oriented strand board (OSB) to expanded polystyrene (EPS) cores, as typically used in structural insulated panel (SIP) construction. Bottom line? We help you laminate better, increase productivity, and improve quality.
