Fine-mesh Straining in large Mixing Lines

Rubber processing presents enormous challenges day in day out to rubber and tyre manufacturers. Uth has made progress in perfecting the manufacturing of tyre, rubber and silicone products. “It has been proven, that the quality of rubber compounds can be improved significantly by fine mesh straining”, clarifies Peter J. Uth, Managing Director, Uth. The gear extruder systems ave set the benchmark world-wide for fine-mesh straining of rubber compounds. With throughputs up to 10000 kg/h the Gear Pump Extruders are a particulary good choice for the op-eration in mixing-lines of the tire industry. Using either the compact two-roll feeder (TRF) or a conical twin screw feeder (DSE), the modular design of the system enables the integration of the strainer in each specific line de-sign. Because of the flexible and compact design, a seemless integration into existing lines is also possible. The high level of automation, as well as the very gentle processing of compounds in the gear extruder, keep the impact on the existing processes to a minimum. The supply of intelligent up- and downstream equipment to enable a seemless integration of the strainer in even the largest mixing lines completes the portfolio of Uth. Where necessary, dedicated individual solutions are developed together with the customer.
