Vulcanising
Press - AIR BAG Pressure Unit
Air and water filler
reinforced rubber bladders, have revolutionised the way pressure can be
applied in pressing systems.
Conventional technology
required that pressure is normally applied through mechanical means such
as torque bolts or rams. These systems are usually bulky, expensive, and
result in a poor distribution of pressure at the surface.
All our vulcanisers employ
the pressurising system whereby water or air is pumped into a reinforced
rubber bladder (commonly called an air-bag). As the bag fills, pressure
is then applied to the vulcanising platens of the press.
The bags can be incorporated
into the supporting beams of the press, or can be a separate single
unit.
The air-bags are the heart
of the EAGLE, FALCON, and HAWK vulcanising presses. The bags are custom
made to various applications and can be designed to withstand various
pressures.
