The rubber transfer molding machine is the ideal vulcanizing press for the production of solid rubber parts, rubber parts with inserts, and parts that require bonding rubber to metal. Rubber transfer molding process combines the advantages of injection rubber molding with the ease of compression molding. This process is most often used for forming rubber products that require:
- Exact positioning
- Bonding rubber to metal parts
- Mold designs that contain multiple cavities and can trap air
- Intricate parts with lower volume requirements
The rubber transfer molding machine sometimes can also be regarded as an economic alternative type injection molding machine,because its manufacturing cost is lower than injection molding machine,so to adopt the transfer molding machine not only can realize the purpose of making rubber parts by injection way,but can also save investment cost for machines.
Advantages of Transfer Molding Process:
1.Transfer Molding cycle time is shorter than Compression Molding cycle (but longer than Injection Molding cycle)
2.The transfer molding method is capable to produce more complicated shapes than Compression Molding.
3.Maintaining closer dimensional tolerances than compression molding.
4.Provides uniformity among the molded products.
5.Fast mold setup.
