Views：1587With the development of the continuous progress of intelligent manufacturing technology and the deepening of global carbon reduction and emission reduction, how to further reduce product manufacturing costs, improve product quality and functionality, meet the requirements of green manufacturing, and obtain comprehensive advantages in market competition is a problem that wheel tire manufacturing enterprises have to solve.
Under this circumstance, we, Han's Laser, can provide the following laser technology solutions to tire manufacturing enterprises:
1. Laser cleaning of tire molds
The use of laser cleaning of tire molds does not require consumables and will not cause any damage to the mold. Compared with traditional sand cleaning and dry ice cleaning, it has low energy consumption, low carbon emissions and little noise. It can clean all steel and semi steel tire molds, especially suitable for cleaning spring sleeve molds, which cannot be sand washed.
2. Laser cleaning of tire inner wall
There are various technical methods for achieving tire self-repairing and muting. Currently, the main method is to coat soft solid gel like polymer composite materials on the inner wall of the tire to achieve explosion-proof, anti-puncture, and anti-leakage functions. At the same time, a layer of polyurethane sponge is pasted on the surface of the anti-leakage adhesive to achieve sound insulation and absorption of cavity noise, achieving a muting effect.
3. Laser coding of tires
Replacing the traditional movable type block printing process with laser marking on the side of finished tires, the formation of tire side information text patterns is delayed until subsequent inspection and shipping processes.
What’s more, laser coding has the following advantages: avoiding batch loss of finished products caused by the use of incorrect type blocks; Avoid downtime losses caused by frequent weekly changes; Effectively improve the appearance quality of the product and eliminate the "flash" caused by the gaps in movable type blocks; Barcode or QR code labeling makes product lifecycle management more efficient and efficient; It is possible to flexibly adjust the sales direction of tires according to order requirements, reducing inventory and capital backlog.
