What Is the BOB-PT100 Panel Spacer Used For?
The Panel Spacer (BOB-PT100) is positioned between the lower and upper metal sheets during cold room panel production before polyurethane injection. Its primary function is to maintain a fixed and unchanging 100 mm spacing between the two sheets.
During the production process, the panel spacer:
- Preserves the target dimension before sheet bonding
- Prevents the upper sheet from bending or sagging under its own weight
- Maintains spacing stability during polyurethane foaming
In this respect, BOB-PT100 is not merely a panel spacer—it is a dimensional assurance component for high-thickness panel production.
Optimized Structure for 100 mm Panel Thickness
The Panel Spacer BOB-PT100 is exclusively engineered for 100 mm (10 cm) panel production. This focused design ensures higher stability and reliability compared to general-purpose spacers. Panels with 100 mm thickness are commonly used in freezer panels and cold storage panels where superior insulation performance is required.
By using this panel spacer:
- Uniform thickness is achieved across the entire panel surface
- Post-production dimensional variations are eliminated
- Installation compatibility is improved
- Thermal insulation performance is maximized
Orientation-Free Symmetrical Geometry
One of the most significant technical advantages of the BOB-PT100 Panel Spacer is its fully symmetrical, orientation-free geometry. The spacer can be:
- Placed upside down
- Rotated in any direction
- Positioned laterally
and it will always maintain a 100 mm gap between the two metal sheets.
This design:
- Removes the need for orientation checks during placement
- Eliminates operator-related measurement errors
- Improves production speed and process standardization
Dimensional Stability During Polyurethane Injection
During polyurethane injection, internal expansion pressure can exert downward force on the upper metal sheet. In thick panels, this force significantly increases the risk of dimensional collapse.
The Panel Spacer BOB-PT100:
- Prevents downward movement of the upper sheet
- Balances polyurethane expansion forces
- Ensures a homogeneous internal panel structure
As a result, the finished cold room panel fully complies with dimensional and insulation standards.
Fast and Clean Fixation with Tape
The Panel Spacer can be easily fixed to the lower metal sheet using paper tape or nylon tape. This fixation method:
- Prevents movement prior to polyurethane injection
- Requires no screws, clips, or mechanical fasteners
- Does not interrupt production flow
This practical approach offers significant time savings in serial manufacturing environments.
Compatible with Cold Room, Freezer, and Cold Storage Panel Production
The Panel Spacer BOB-PT100 is suitable for the production of:
- Cold room panels
- Freezer (buzhane) panels
- Cold storage panels
In these applications, dimensional accuracy directly impacts insulation performance, installation precision, and long-term reliability.
Improves Overall Production Quality
Integrating the Panel Spacer BOB-PT100 into the production process:
- Significantly reduces defective panel rates
- Eliminates the need for post-production corrections
- Keeps dimensional tolerances under strict control
- Enhances final product quality
These benefits reflect Bob Modüler’s engineering-driven manufacturing philosophy.
