PVO and NIR pre-vulcanization ovens
Pre-vulcanization systems are suitable for curing the outer surface of the profile to stabilize its geometry before coming into contact with the vulcanization oven conveyor belt.
The pre-vulcanization temperature inside the oven reaches about 600°C in the PVO system and 950°C in the NIR system.

High-speed hot air ovens
The principle of operation is based on the circulation of forced hot air, at high speed within two concentric chambers. The outdoor area, where hot air circulates at low speed, is called the preheating tunnel since the air in this area is preheated. The interior area, where hot air circulates at high speed, is called the vulcanization tunnel where the profile vulcanization takes place. The air temperature can be adjusted up to 400° C. In addition, the air speed can be adjusted.

Microwave ovens
These microwave vulcanization ovens for rubber profiles and tubes are made directly at our site in the United States. Since heating takes place simultaneously for the entire section of the profile, it is the ideal choice for profiles or tubes compounded from polar rubber and thick cross section.

Combination ovens with molten salt and high-speed hot air
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 the confinement of a conveyor belt and / or rollers that can cause marks and deformations on the profile.
