Fabrication of
Rubber Components
The production of complex shapes from rubber generally requires tooling such as moulds and dies and the associated heavy equipment. Simple flat shapes can be cut from pre-cured rubber sheets by hand cutting and punching, by press cutting with metal dies, or by water cutting.
We are able to fabricate rubber components from rubber sheets and extrusions by an adhesive bonding process, which eliminates the need for costly tooling for short run components.
This enables the manufacture of large components such as ball mill sealing gaskets and expansion joints through large diameter socks down to small gaskets, packers and boots. Textile reinforced rubber sheeting can also be utilised to produce conveyor belt curtains, screening flaps and adaptors.
Commonly used rubbers include natural, bromobutyl, EPDM, nitrile and neoprene. These elastomers can be successfully bonded using our cold bonding system. Abrasion resistant rubber and rubber-ceramic wear plates can be applied using the adhesive bonding fabrication techniques to fit steel backing plates.
We can also manufacture rubber components for hydrocyclones such as fishtails.
