Summary

The Pro Series is a solid aluminum frame style rubber vulcanizing press that allows for quick and easy operation. With end handles and positioning rings (for larger models), the Pro Series is easy to maneuver into the desired splice position. Each Pro Series boasts the following superior Almex technology:

  • Signature Almex “Pressure Bag” uniform pressure system
  • Custom “Extruded Plank” cooling system within platens
  • Innovative “Silicone Element” fast heating system
  • Upper and Lower aluminum frames
  • An Almex T-Series control panel for managing temperature/time


Specifications

PLATEN: Utilizes innovative Almex flexible platen constructed from extruded plank, silicone heating element and durable composite insulation. Each platen contours to the belt’s irregularities, ensuring uniform results. Maximum temperature 163°C (325°F).

FRAME: Two light and rugged aluminum frames comprise upper and lower
portions of press. Ends equipped with carrying handles on smaller models; sides
also equipped with handles on larger models.

CONTROL PANEL: T1F and T2 can accommodate 230 volts, with the T1F being
inset and the T2 remote. T3 offered for higher voltages and remote operation. T2
and T3 panels feature Dual Omron temperature control and indication systems and
are housed in rugged aluminum box with handle and cover.

PRESSURE/COOLING: Patented Almex pressure bag ensures uniform pressure across splice surface. Presses available for two pressure thresholds; Pro Series 60 – 4kg/cm2 (60 psi) maximum, Pro Series 100 – 7 kg/cm2 (100 psi) maximum. Quick cooling by channeling water through extruded platen.
