Nowadays the automotive interior parts have higher requirements on color, surface finishing and intelligence. Polyurethane is a kind of “smart” material, which can be soft and hard, wear-resistant, scratch-resistant, and self-repairing. It also features the advantages of flexible color combination, brightness, suitable for “smart inserts”. It has been used in interior parts such as dashboard, center console, door panel and smart home appliances. And the amount of use is increasing year by year.
  Yizumi ReactPro polyurethane in-mold coating solution, realizing the combination of injection molding and PUR in-mold coating technology in a single production step; adopting advanced mold technology, the InPUR '1+2', it can replace the traditional surface coating process with higher economical efficiency. The solution is co-developed by Yizumi and Frimo. In February 2019, Yizumi and Frimo signed a long-term collaboration agreement on joint development and marketing of the “Injection Molding + PUR Process Combination Technology”.
  Advantages of Yizumi ReactPro solution:
  (1)Avoid environmental pollution caused by coating process, more environmentally friendly;
  (2)Reduce production steps and shorten the cycle time;
  (3)PUR parts with thickness as low as 0.3mm can be produced, meets the design requirements in a better way and increase production as well as save costs;
  (4)No demoulding agent is needed in the entire process;
  (5)InPUR mold technology requires less investment than mechanical turntable technology;
   (6)By using PUR material, the part can achieve a high-quality, high-gloss surface, and it is not easily affected by the external environment and has properties such as good environmental adaptability, scratch-resistance, chemical erosion-resistance and self-repair.
  Yizumi ReactPro solution is mainly used in the upgrading of automobile interior parts (dashboards, door panels, A/B/C/D pillars etc.), bringing along better texture and showcasing a more high-end premium quality. Simultaneously, there are also huge potential in the fields of 3C electronics and home appliances. Its high-gloss, self-restoration properties can bring about more possibilities to product design.
  At Chinaplas 2019, Yizumi ReactPro solution made its debut with live production of automotive engine cover featuring partially high-gloss polyurethane surface; and in conjunction with SpaceA flexible additive manufacturing system, "print" a layer of sealing structure, achieving a combination of large-scale manufacturing and customization.
  The solution will also be showcased at K 2019, the world's largest plastics and rubber industry exhibition with a demonstration of a higher level of integration and intelligence. Yizumi (IMM Booth: Hall 13/D80) looks forward to witnessing with you at Düsseldorf Exhibition Center from October 16th to 23rd.
