Best Practices
1. Mold Preparation The mold used in compression molding is usually made from steel or aluminum and is designed to include the required shape of the final product. The mold is heated to facilitate the curing process of the rubber.
2. Swing Beam Shears This type features a pivoting beam that allows for better control over the cutting process. They are versatile and commonly used for both thick and thin materials.
2. Tube Bending Machines Bending is crucial for applications requiring curved or shaped tubes. Tube benders utilize various methodologies, such as rotary draw bending or mandrel bending, allowing for flexible shapes without compromising the material’s integrity.
