The invention relates to a foaming device (1) which has a foaming unit (2) with a foaming chamber (17), said foaming chamber comprising mechanical foaming means (15, 19) which are contained inside the chamber and by means of which at least three components that are fed to the foaming chamber (17) can be mixed. At least one adhesive, a gaseous foaming medium, and a free flowing diluent are used as the components in order to produce an adhesive foam. Adjusting means (25) are provided in order to adjust the ratio of the individual components to one another in order to influence the properties of the adhesive foam.

A syringe for multi-component materials includes a mixer housing, a mixing element, a multi-component cartridge and a mixing head, the mixing head being arranged at least partly within the mixer housing and adjacent to the multi-component cartridge. The mixing head is arranged moveable in an axial direction of the syringe between at least two positions, the at least two positions including a sealed position and a dispensing position. The axial movement of the mixing head is brought about by rotation of at least a part of the mixer housing relative to the multi-component cartridge. The mixing head is axially displaced in a direction opposite to a dispensing direction on a displacement of the mixing head from the sealed position into the dispensing position.

A method as well as a liquid mixing system for providing a liquid mixture of water with at least one additive. The liquid mixing system comprises a first water reservoir, a first additive reservoir, a mixing unit, a conveying device and a line network. At least one first measurement value of the flow of the first additive conveyed to a mixing device is determined by an additive flowmeter. The total stream of the liquid mixture conveyed by the conveying device is measured by a liquid mixture flowmeter. The determined measurement values are transmitted to a control device, and from there passed on to a data storage device where they are stored.
