ELBEX has experience in a variety of rubber extrusion capabilities, including continuous vulcanization lines, also known as a salt bath cure. Benefits of Salt Bath Curing Salt bath vulcanization is a widely used liquid curing method to harden rubber. Once lengths of rubber are forced through a die into a desired shape, the product needs to be hardened and cured.
Methods like a salt bath are a. Salt bath Our new generation of electric or gas-heated salt bath vulcanization lines impresses with high productivity in combination with low specific energy consumption. This groundbreaking system guarantees excellent heat transfer.
Modular and compact configuration and design layout, low salt discharge and cutting. Salt bath vulcanization is a liquid curing method (LCM), a common continuous vulcanization (CV) method. CV methods are desirable for producing products such as tubing, hoses and weather stripping.
Salt is a good choice for a CV method because it requires relatively short-length curing units-it has good heat exchange properties and can be used at the necessary high temperatures (177 to 260°C. The installation consists of a long salt bath, known as the "vulcanisation tunnel" (Part 1), combined with a highly efficient washing and cooling system, known as "Ecoclean" (Part 2), with the aim of guaranteeing rigorous washing and recovering 100% of the entrained salt. This " Ecoclean " is combined with a gas-heated (or alternatively electrically heated) evaporator oven, known.
Lescuyer et Villeneuve offers an exclusive salt-bath vulcanization process using MDC Engineering 's innovative, world-renowned LCM VulcanoClean technology. The technology is an ecological innovation that recycles salts and treats fumes and washing water in a closed circuit Turnkey equipment with delivery, installation and training of teams on site A start. Rubicon manufactures Salt Bath, Microwave, Hot Air and Infrared continuous vulcanization lines.
We can propose the optimum solution (including combinations of different vulcanization methods) according to factors such as material composition and part geometry. Salts for vulcanizing RUBBERCURE products are special designed heat transfer salts used with great success for the vulcaniza-tion of rubber profiles, which are for example continu-ously extruded. Some of their advantages are: high vulcanization speed compact profile surface without any porosity high long.
Salt bath curing has good heat exchange properties and can be used at extremely high temperatures. HAV systems. A salt-bath vulcanization process for EPDM foamed profiles, the process comprises the following steps: taking foaming raw materials and mechanically mixing them, extruding them through an extruder, vulcanizing and foaming them in a salt bath, and obtaining EPDM Propylene rubber foam profile; the foam raw materials include EPDM rubber.
This new patented vulcanization system simultaneously exploits the process qualities of molten salt and high-speed hot air. This system eliminates the use of rollers and / or conveyor belts to keep the profile immersed under the surface of the molten salt. The profile floats on the molten salt and during vulcanization the profile is hit by a flow of hot air thereby vulcanizing freely without.
