Rub­ber Profiles 

Rub­ber pro­files are pro­duced end­less­ly by extru­sion. For this pur­pose, the unvul­can­ized rub­ber mix­ture is plas­ti­cized in extrud­ers and brought into the appro­pri­ate cross-sec­tion­al geom­e­try by means of attached extru­sion tools (mouth­pieces) in the extru­sion head of the sys­tem. The mouth­pieces can be adapt­ed as required to pro­duce dif­fer­ent pro­file cross-sec­tions, so that the right geom­e­try can be real­ized for every application.

The pro­file is dimen­sion­al­ly sta­bi­lized by sub­se­quent vul­can­iza­tion. Vul­can­iza­tion in a steam boil­er or salt bath is used here, as well as hot air vul­can­iza­tion, UHF pro­duc­tion or IR shock vul­can­iza­tion. Rub­ber pro­files are used for pro­tec­tion or seal­ing in vehi­cle con­struc­tion, the con­struc­tion indus­try and gen­er­al mechan­i­cal engi­neer­ing, among others.
