Heat in Rubber Industry
Rubber processing relies on heat for mixing, extrusion, moulding and vulcanising. MaxVolt manufactures cartridge, cast-in, strip, band and air heaters for moulding presses, extruders, curing ovens and the moulds themselves.
Vulcanising depends on time and temperature. If a press platen or mould is a few degrees off in one corner, parts under-cure or scorch — and the defect often only shows up later in service.
MaxVolt supplies the heaters that set those temperatures: cartridge and cast-in heaters for platens and moulds, band heaters for extruders and air heaters for hot-air curing.
Problems we solve for this industry
Uneven platen temperature
Cold edges on press platens lead to inconsistent cure and rejected parts.
Our approach: Heater layout and wattage are planned across the platen, with more heat at the edges.
Cartridge heater failures
Loose fits and vibration in presses burn out cartridge heaters.
Our approach: Cartridges matched to the bore with suitable watt density and lead protection.
Long cure cycles
Slow heat-up between batches wastes press time.
Our approach: Heaters sized for the heat-up you need, with good thermal contact.
Fumes and contamination
Process fumes and release agents attack heater terminals.
Our approach: Protected lead exits and terminal designs for the press environment.
