Mineral casting (EPUMENT^®)

EPUMENT^® mineral casting is a high-tech material that is perfect for the primary machine bed functions, such as precisely securing the geometric position of the individual machine elements, and the static, dynamic, thermal, and acoustic absorption of forces and moments.

Product Description

High-performance machine bed and construction material based on selected mineral fillers and a high-quality epoxy resin-based binding agent
Basis for machine components with impressive properties, diverse range of design possibilities, and clear economic benefits
Also available as radiation-absorbing material (EPURAM)

Added value

Superior damping
Outstanding thermal stability
High level of precision
High degree of functional integration
Attractive and design-oriented
Environmentally friendly with outstanding green credentials
Excellent availability and short time-to-market

Areas of application

Machine beds for all industries
Machine components (e.g. traveling columns, gantries, traverses)
Radiation protection components (filling with EPURAM)
Suitable for small, medium, and large quantities
