Features and Product Information

Features

  • Specially engineered for lightweight rubber belt splicing, with a pressure capacity of 5 bar (75 psi)
  • Custom built to order
  • Standard platen width is 8" (200mm)
  • Press lengths: 14"-124" (355mm-3150mm)
  • Weight: smaller models - 55 lbs (25kg), large models - 1,036 lbs (470kg)

Product Information

  • Downstroking Model (VWP)
  • Belt Clamps Synthetic Boards Option:
    A set of synthetic boards 1/8" (3 mm) each can be purchased for placement in the stainless steel clamp fixture. These boards provide excellent heat transfer and reasonable good pressure transfer which allow no heat escape beyond the platen, providing a smoother splice. This option is recommended where superior finish is required.
Specifications

PLATENS

Assembled with extruded plank, silicone heating element, and durable composite insulating packaging, each platen is flexible and will contour to the irregularities of the conveyor (assuring uniform pressure). Operational temperatures of 163ºC to 200ºC (325ºF to 392ºF).

FRAME

Sturdy two-piece aluminum frame is light and easy to maneuver for splice placement. Frame can be mounted to cantilever stand for shop use; pneumatic lift optional for upper platen, making for easier use and decreased splice time.

PRESSURE/COOLING

Engineered for lightweight rubber belt. Vulcaweld has a maximum pressure of 5kg/cm2 (75 psi). Uniform pressure applied with unique Almex pressure bag. Up-stroking pressure is standard but down-stroking design optional. Cooling fluid channeled through extruded platen using C1M or C1 cooling applicator.
