Rubber Sheet Press

Press vulcanization takes place in presses that supply pressure and heat. A very simple mold consists of two metal plates with cavities which conform to make the outside shape of the desired finished part. The presses hydraulically pushes plates heated by electricity steam or hot oil together vulcanizing the rubber.Rubber molding is a process of transforming uncured rubber or an elastomer into a usable product by transferring, compressing, or injecting raw rubber material into a metal mold cavity. The most common methods for rubber molding are injection, compression, and transfer.
