Shanghai Winman Industrial Co., Ltd. delivered a customized WM-601 FIPFG polyurethane foam gasket dispensing machine for a low-voltage switchgear manufacturer in Algeria. Based on the customer’s semi-automatic sealing method, equipment stability requirements, and continuous production needs, the solution was optimized to help improve automation, process consistency, and overall manufacturing efficiency in the switchgear sealing line.
This Algerian low-voltage switchgear manufacturer is one of the leading local suppliers, providing manufacturing and supporting services for distribution cabinets and related electrical equipment for many years. As order volumes and delivery requirements continued to grow, the customer placed higher demands on sealing process continuity, consistency, and equipment stability.
Before the project began, the customer mainly used a semi-automatic sealing method, which made production cycle time more susceptible to manual operation and made process consistency difficult to maintain. In addition, the existing Sandhoff equipment had relatively high cost and a higher failure rate, creating pressure on line operation and maintenance management. For an electrical manufacturing scenario that requires continuous delivery, these issues directly affected capacity release and quality control.
For low-voltage switchgear manufacturers, sealing quality is directly related to product protection performance and long-term reliability. Therefore, the customer wanted to introduce a more mature and stable FIPFG automatic foam sealing solution to match the manufacturing requirements of its core products.
Based on the customer’s on-site process and equipment requirements, Shanghai Winman Industrial Co., Ltd. provided a WM-601 FIPFG polyurethane foam gasket dispensing machine, and carried out customized adaptation according to the characteristics of the production line to make the equipment more suitable for continuous production scenarios.
| Key Configuration | Function Description |
|---|---|
| Dynamic mixing technology | Improves the mixing uniformity of two-component materials and helps the foam sealing bead maintain stable forming. |
| Dual-core system control | Enhances operating coordination and control precision to support continuous production requirements. |
| Industrial computer control | Makes process parameter management, equipment operation, and on-site debugging easier. |
| Automatic air supply compensation | Ensures stable air supply during continuous production and reduces process impact caused by fluctuations. |
The project design focused on two core directions: first, upgrading the existing semi-automatic sealing process to a more standardized automatic foam sealing workflow; second, improving equipment reliability and continuous operating capability through customized configuration, thereby reducing maintenance pressure and improving line cycle time.
Based on actual operating results, the WM-601 not only helped the customer improve the automation level of the sealing process, but also addressed the issues of high equipment cost and frequent failures, making the line more suitable for long-term stable operation.
The value of this case lies not only in replacing a single piece of equipment, but also in the systematic upgrade of the sealing manufacturing process. For the customer, the production cycle is now more stable, sealing quality is more consistent, equipment maintenance pressure has decreased, and on-site management and production organization have become clearer.
For low-voltage switchgear manufacturers, distribution cabinet makers, and related electrical equipment companies, the significance of FIPFG technology is not only in forming seals, but also in helping factories establish a more standardized and repeatable sealing production capability. Especially in scenarios where protection rating, batch delivery, and cost control must be balanced, automated FIPFG equipment can more easily create a long-term and stable process advantage.
This project shows that in electrical equipment manufacturing scenarios, automation upgrades centered on sealing processes can often deliver comprehensive improvements in efficiency, quality, and cost at the same time.
For factories facing semi-automatic dependency, aging equipment, or high maintenance costs, introducing customized FIPFG-based equipment is a relatively mature and repeatable upgrade path. Through the WM-601 project, WINMAN INDUSTRIAL demonstrated its delivery capabilities in two-component metering control, dynamic mixing, and continuous production stability optimization, while also providing a reference for sealing line upgrades for similar electrical manufacturing enterprises.
Customized solutions, on-site process debugging, and one-stop equipment delivery help electrical manufacturers reduce costs, improve efficiency, and stabilize product quality.
