Quality through experience
Manual loading of treads into leaf trucks is hardly feasible at an adequate extrusion speed due to the high-quality requirements of tyre manufacturers, which is why many manufacturers have switched to automatic feeding systems to increase their output of the entire production. But speed is not the only good reason for a changeover. Improper manual handling of the treads can quickly cause them to become unintentionally deformed. Especially in the case of treads for larger tyres, deformation-free handling by employees has become almost impossible simply because of the size and weight. So, there is no getting around automatic tread loading if you want to avoid disadvantages. A side effect of this is also that labor is saved in the loading process. With decades of experience, SYSTRAPLAN has also consistently developed and increasingly perfected the feeding of leaf trucks so that the duration of maintenance and repairs has been reduced as much as possible. This factor alone effectively reduces downtimes.
Furthermore, it is essential for subsequent processing of the treads that they are stored uniformly at close intervals and placed gently on the side of the leaf truck. If this is not the case, the quality of the final product decreases. For the correct orientation of the treads, the material flow of the extruder line must always be individually planned and adapted to the local conditions. Therefore, it is also important for this to have a provider who can draw on a wealth of experience.
In this sense, automatic booking systems from SYSTRAPLAN are a guarantee for optimum production processes and, as a result, a significant increase in production. Of course, SYSTRAPLAN offers not only automatic booking systems, but also many innovative storage systems.
