Four models. Distinct roles.

The rebonding process

Crush. Mix. Mould.

  1. Prepare the scrapReduce foam waste to chips or segments using the appropriate crusher.
  2. Weigh and mixMix foam chips with a pre-polymer bonding agent in the RZ 18 system.
  3. Press and steamForm rectangular rebonded blocks for further processing into mattresses and cushions.

Specification clarification: The brochure lists the rotary blade count as “4 × 3 = 9 pieces”, which is inconsistent. Confirm the blade quantity when specifying this model.

RZ 20 · Process mixed scrap

Multi-material crusher

Designed for flexible foam, rigid foam and quilted waste. Two cutting stages turn bulk scrap into strips and then shorter segments, with a separate suction and bag-filling unit.

RZ 20 multi-material crusher
  • Stage 1: circular blades cut bulk scrap into strips
  • Stage 2: a rotary cutter processes strips into uniform segments
