The process of molding quality elastomer products efficiently can be challenging as it requires high clamping forces, solid machine construction, precise temperature control, and long cure times. At WICKERT hydraulic presses, we turn these challenges into a science of precision that is highly repeatable. We have a long standing history in the rubber molding industry across the gamut from highly precise small parts to and very challenging large parts. Regardless of the application, we have the press technology and peripheral automation required to give our customers a competitive advantage.
WICKERT technology in this space, includes our special designs that guarantee the best possible temperature distribution across the entire heating platen. The use of multi-zone temperature control systems (with up to 9 zones across up to 9 fields) and fast acting embedded controllers, provide clear understanding of mold temperature across the entire tool surface, thereby ensuring uniform elastomer cure state and minimized cycle time. WICKERT also excels with vacuum chamber solutions to remove air and other volatiles very effectively during the molding process. Seemingly small details from control integration, proper system design (including pumps, lines, valves, and accumulators), and quality manufacture of our vacuum chamber systems allow customers to produce even very challenging articles in a stable and efficient process. Pair such advantages with our other integrated elastomer process solutions to achieve the perfect rubber manufacturing solution. Come experience the WICKERT difference by contacting us today so we can assist in customizing and creating the perfect press for your elastomer molding needs within the realm of compression or transfer molding.
