Knowledge and Expertise

The right manufacturing company of rubber extruder will employ highly trained and dedicated experts who have both knowledge and expertise specific to the rubber extrusion process. This includes how the unvulcanized rubber compound is fed into the extruder and carried to the die while making the appropriate plus or minus tolerances on the cross-section to coordinate with swelling that commonly occurs. The combination of knowledge and expertise helps achieve the correct extruded rubber profiles.

Rubber Stock
Even the quality of the rubber used to make extrusions is a key criterion for choosing the best manufacturer. The properties of a finished product depend on the quality of the raw rubber stock used, as well as the extrusion process along with any secondary process. Rubber exists in several different forms, thereby making the raw selection process critical.

For instance, natural rubber is known for its outstanding resistance to abrasion and acid, whereas synthetic rubbers, including neoprene and silicone, are commonly used in the food services, automotive, healthcare, and building and construction industries, among many others, because of their superior resistance to chemicals, heat, and weathering.
