EPDM Rubber profiles
EPDM Rubber profiles are produced endlessly by extrusion. For this purpose, the unvulcanized rubber mixture is plasticized in extruders and brought into the appropriate cross-sectional geometry by means of attached extrusion tools (mouthpieces) in the extrusion head of the system. The mouthpieces can be adapted as required to produce different profile cross-sections, so that the right geometry can be realized for every application.
The profile is dimensionally stabilized by subsequent vulcanization. Vulcanization in a steam boiler or salt bath is used here, as well as hot air vulcanization, UHF production or IR shock vulcanization. Rubber profiles are used for protection or sealing in vehicle construction, the construction industry and general mechanical engineering, among others.
