Portable molding system for forming insulation on long pipes
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11999089B2) details a portable molding system designed for forming insulation on pipes exceeding 20 feet in length. The system consists of transportable process modules that can be shipped to a molding site, connected to create a site-installed molding system, and later disconnected for transport to another location. These modules include resin preparation units and mold modules capable of holding individual pipes and forming insulation on them. The system's components are designed to fit within standard shipping containers, ensuring ease of transportation with a width of 96 inches and a height of 102 inches.
Furthermore, the patent outlines a method for using this portable molding system to form insulated pipes, involving shipping the modules to a site, establishing communication and fluid connections, conditioning and mixing resin, and curing it in the mold cavity to create insulated pipes. The system's innovative design allows for efficient resin transfer, mixing, and curing processes, enabling the production of insulated pipes exceeding 20 feet in length. With features like skid-mounted modules, dedicated control processors, and fluid connections via flexible hoses, this portable molding system offers a versatile and practical solution for large-scale pipe insulation manufacturing.
