Emerson’s industrial tyre manufacturing solutions and equipment boost throughput, cut downtime and ensure quality throughout the tyre-making process.
Increasing global demand for tyres requires manufacturers to create innovative and nimble production processes that support rapid changes while lowering energy usage, minimizing waste and improving tyre production automation. As tyre factories and plants streamline production, Emerson provides solutions for tyre curing presses or tyre building machines. Our innovations enable the automation of the tyre manufacturing process by achieving the balance you need to increase throughput targets, improve sustainability, lower operational costs, prolong tyre manufacturing equipment lifecycles and protect your workers.
Emerson products are critical to the safe, efficient and precise operation of your mixing equipment, wire and fabric calendars, extruders, tire building machines, curing presses and finishing process. Our pneumatic, flow control and preparation solutions are designed to address inefficiencies at each production stage and help end users’ operations stay flexible and consistent, without compromising machine safety features.
Flow control and pneumatic directional control devices, such as pressure operated valves, play an essential role in optimizing the mixing process and ensuring efficient operation of the curing press. Rubber mixtures require accurate weighing, conveyance and measuring of many chemicals and raw materials in a controlled sequence. Emerson valves keep the weighing and hopper systems running efficiently and reliably while ensuring batch quality.
Emerson’s products can increase reliability and material guidance precision of bead wiring and rubber coating, reduce commissioning time through onsite/pre-set tuning and improve pneumatic system performance to avoid premature valve failures. Our overall solution can greatly increase the lifespan of valves by purifying compressed air and regulating pressure and improve safety conditions for your workers by locking systems down during maintenance.
Repeatable, high precision pneumatic directional control ensures your production meets the highest quality specifications every time. Using modular and compact valve manifolds you can achieve greater application flexibility, reduce costs, simplify commissioning, maximize availability of tyre building machinery and achieve higher throughput targets. Increased visibility into the health of valves also reduces maintenance costs.
A tire curing press uses pressure and heat to mold and form a tire into shape with the desired tread pattern. Emerson’s durable pressure operated valves are designed for steam applications and provide precise, reliable control and rapid cycling in curing press operations and tight shut-off. Our solutions increase process uptime through extended valve life and reduce commissioning time through onsite/pre-set tuning.
Through the finishing process, pneumatic cylinders provide precise and reliable motion control and positional accuracy. By offering greater repeatability and reliability, these devices reduce machinery downtime and maximize throughput.
Emerson’s ISO and NFPA-conforming actuators and linear-guided cylinders are extremely durable, providing greater test equipment machinery reliability and extended lifespans.
