Systraplan shows off automatic tread booking with robot

by

Faster extrusion speeds and the need for greater accuracy encouraged tyre manufacturers to replace manual loading with automatic tread booking systems. More and more booker loading systems have been installed to overcome the problems associated with manual loading.

Tread deformation is a good example of this. Improper handling can cause transverse and longitudinal deformation. In particular, the size and weight of truck treads make it difficult for operators to handle the treads properly and appropriately.

Automatic tread booking avoids the disadvantages associated with manual tread handling. [Read more…] about Systraplan shows off automatic tread booking with robot
