rubicon extruders fitted with special equipment and tools can be used to produce the most diverse of industrial rubber goods. Examples of products we can produce include round cords, rubber strips, granulate, rubber plates, as well as preforms for further processing in vulcanization presses, injection moulding machines and punching machines.
We also offer machines that are perfectly adapted for applications such as preheating compounds, producing rubber strips for feeding downstream machines, straining the rubber compound and blending compound batches.
Rubber bands are widely used in industry, agriculture, medicine, as well as in offices and households. Owing to the high degree of elasticity required, they are mainly made from natural rubber, and are manufactured in countries that produce natural rubber. Most of the work involved in their production is still done by hand, especially in the vulcanization process. A large workforce is therefore required to carry out this work.
rubicon manufactures highly productive and efficient continuous extrusion lines for processing this material.
Blanks
Blanks in Modern Industry: Precision, Efficiency, and Sustainability
Blanks are central elements in the manufacturing chain of many industries. They are used as raw materials for processed products such as seals, hoses, and other elastomeric components.
The quality of blanks directly impacts the final product and, consequently, the competitiveness of the manufacturing company.
Equipment for Blanks
Extrusion technology impresses with its versatility and finds application in various phases of the production process. It is suitable not only for shaping but also for material preparation and the production of semi-finished products. Thus, rubicon offers specially tailored machines and equipment for the blanks production process, customized precisely to your requirements.
Precision and Efficiency in Blanks Manufacturing
Equipped with specialized equipment and tools, rubicon extruders can be used for the production of various types of blanks. Their applications include:
- Extrusion of blanks such as round cords, rubber sheets, or plates
- Production of preforms for further processing in vulcanization presses, injection molding machines, stamping, etc.
- Production of granules
- Preheating of mixtures for feeding subsequent machines
- Simultaneous straining (sieving) of rubber mixture during blank extrusion
- Cutting of mix batches
Sustainability and Future Viability
Due to their high dimensional accuracy and quick cleaning capabilities, rubicon extruders are excellent for the production of blanks and preforms. Extruder features include:
- Precise product geometries for small and large extrudate cross-sections
- Flexible use for both small series and mass production
- Easy cleaning of the feeding zone through a hinged feeding roller
- Easy-to-use and clean extrusion tools allow quick material and dimension changes
- For small batch quantities and frequent material changes, the small extruders stand out with high output performance and low material losses.
Special Equipment for Blanks Manufacturing
To further enhance efficiency and quality in blanks production, rubicon offers a range of specialized equipment. These technologies optimize processes and allow for quick and easy adaptation to different material requirements—especially with frequent material changes.
Quick and Easy Cleaning
Cleaning the extrusion unit is crucial to avoid material carryover and ensure a smooth transition between different material batches. Rubicon offers well-thought-out solutions for this:
- Blow-out Device for the Screw:
Using compressed air, water is quickly and efficiently removed from the screw. This saves time and prevents unwanted water leakage during screw changes.
- Hydraulic Extraction Device:
This device provides free access to the screw by hydraulically extending it out of the extrusion unit. This facilitates cleaning work and reduces downtime.
Process Stability through Optimized Feed
Separately Driven Feed Roller:
It enables precise adjustment of material feed, ensuring consistent and even production. The increased process consistency further enhances the quality of the blanks.
Future-Proof Solutions for Blanks Production
rubicon develops specialized solutions for all extruder sizes for blanks manufacturing:
- Granulation Equipment:
Round cords are precisely cut into uniform granules by rotating cutting tools. The granule size can be adjusted as needed to meet specific requirements.
- Extrusion of Rubber Sheets:
Specialized extrusion tools, such as pipe cutting tools or wide slit tools, ensure uniform strip thicknesses. The downstream cutting unit cuts the strips into sheets.
Blanks Cutting Machine for Precise Cutting
rubicon's blanks cutting machine is specifically designed to precisely cut rubber blanks from extruded tubes or cords. This enables uniform further processing of the blanks in subsequent production steps.
Follow-up Technology for Automated Production Processes
rubicon offers comprehensive follow-up technology that efficiently supports the production process from start to finish. These include:
- Feeding Systems, Conveyor and puller:
These systems ensure smooth material feeding and removal throughout the entire process.'
- Cooling Sections and Cutting Units:
To ensure material quality, the blanks are cooled during and after the extrusion process and cut to the desired lengths.
- Measurement, Control, and Regulation Devices:
Precise monitoring and control of the entire production process ensures consistent quality and minimizes production errors.
Material Diversity and Precision
Whether it’s FPM, NBR, H-NBR, EPDM, or CR, rubicon enables the processing of a wide variety of materials and offers the appropriate technology for the manufacturing of precise blanks.
