Over 300 million seals are produced yearly using Sonderhoff products. This takes place in over 50 countries around the globe. The knowledge we have gathered as the fruits of over more than 50 years’ hard work, a treasure-trove of more than 1,000 recipes and the innovative energy of an enterprise group active on an international level, are the guarantee for our high level of customer orientation, tailor-made products and market conscious solutions – also in your industry!
FIP(F)G – the automated production technology for foam sealing, potting and gluing
With Formed In-Place (Foam) Gasket Technology – FIP(F)G for short – a process is available, which in many cases further optimises the production processes of foam seals, gluing and potting – technologically and economically speaking. Designed according to your requirements, Sonderhoff solutions ensure high process reliability and quality. In this way we create the conditions for perfect seal, glue and potting quality for your parts. Damp, Dust & Co. keep out!
The industry is forever on the search for the most efficient production methods. That is why automation is a central topic, as much for plastic and metal processing as for upstream and downstream processes. For it is the global pressure of costs and competition that demands slick and swift production processes in the main. Here, the Sonderhoff enterprise group is at your service as a technological leader and process specialist for the foam sealing, gluing and potting of your components.
Tailor-made mixing and dispensing systems
Mixing head, material preparation, process control and automation layout, individually configured
Product life cycles which become ever shorter lead to new forms of construction and designs of various industrial components. Thus, dispensing systems and automation solutions that can be flexibly adapted to every requirement are in high demand. Our core competence therefore includes developing, consulting and selling of the appropriate technology for a particular situation, regardless of whether you want to operate a Sonderhoff Engineering system as a stand-alone unit or to integrate it into a complex production line.
Our mixing and dispensing systems – for the application of polyurethane, silicone and other reactive substances – consist essentially of three modules: the mixing head, the material preparation and process control and automation. Therefore, there are numerous different equipment options that allow you to tailor the system layout to your own production process.
The basic system types:
DM 402/403
DM 402/403
The DM 402/403 is a 2- or multi-component high-performance low pressure semi- or fullyautomatic mixing and dosing system for gasket, gluing and potting applications of different types of parts. The DM 402/403 precisely processes liquid, medium to high viscose media such as polyurethane, silicones, epoxy resins and other polymer reaction substances.

Our material systems – here, chemistry’s in charge!
Our own research and development departments work daily to discover new and compositionally improved material systems. The choice of raw materials is an important factor here. Where necessary and possible we replace existing raw materials with sustainable and environmentally friendly ones. Individual customer specifications are converted into tailor-made products. Clients can choose the best solution from more than 1000 recipes for sealing, gluing and potting their parts. If the customer desires it we will also create a special formula.
We create 2-component material systems of polyurethane and silicone for soft foam seals and 1-component PVC plastisols for the production of flexible, closed-cell foam seals. We are also producers of polyurethane and silicone potting systems such as polyurethane-based glues for a multiplicity of applications. With our foam sealing, gluing and potting products your parts get the best possible protection from damp, dust, temperature, chemicals, oils, fats or other media. At the same time they help to dampen sound and vibrations.
