An apparatus for continuous production of finished foam material, in which the proportions of the constituents are monitored and continuously adjustable during operation of the machine. The liquid components are metered by positive-displacement, progressive-cavity, screw-type pumps driven by variable speed motors. Rates of flow are monitored by flow meters, and the relative proportions of the constituents can be closely adjusted by varying the speeds of the pump drive motors and observing the flow meter readouts. The finished foam produced by the apparatus may be used, for example, for the preparation of foamed cement grouts or for fighting fires.
