Mixing/Preparation

The Mixing/Preparation stage covers the preparation of the foam material for further processing. There is currently limited information for this Production Stage and the process options can be used for all Foam materials.

  • Mixing, open mill, for foam is the default selection and should be selected unless there is no preparation step to mix the foam compound. While the process is modeled as an open mill, it should remain selected regardless of mixing method. “None” should only be selected if there is no preparation and mixing process.
