6 DECEMBER, 2021The foam industry is evolving at a rapid pace. Sustainable methodologies are being used in various industries such as automotive, furniture, medical, aerospace, packaging, and more. Various foam solutions are developed to achieve application-oriented properties. Some of the applications include sound insulation, filtering, cleaning, packaging, and sealing.Artificial intelligence is making a difference in the way things are done in the manufacturing world. A growing number of manufacturing companies are incorporating artificial intelligence into their operations since it helps decrease important errors, increase safety precautions, and enhance overall production. One of the areas in which artificial intelligence is being used is in the application of foam sealing. By leveraging machine learning, companies are refining the production and maintenance cycles of foam products faster to obtain consistent quality products. The implementation of robotic technology into foam manufacturing is cultivating precision manufacturing, mostly harnessed by the aerospace industry to make insulation linings on spacecraft and suits. The Drone industry is booming worldwide with various kinds of foams used to make lightweight and robust airframes. Military-grade equipment is kept in storage boxes made of high-density foam, manufactured using advanced heat-treating processes. The packaging industry is employing bio-friendly polymers that are readily biodegradable and recyclable so as not to be a bane on society. Electric vehicles are gaining traction in the automotive world, using foam seats produced using advanced smart manufacturing processes that make them lighter and stronger than their traditional counterparts. Organizations will have to equip themselves with the latest foam technology to meet the demands of the evolution. To help clients steer through the best of breed companies, Manufacturing Outlook has compiled a list of Top 10 Foam Technology Solution Providers of 2021. These organizations are setting an example of themselves as industry transformers at the cusp of disruptive technologies.
