CLEVELAND (Oct. 12, 2011)—LWB Steinl GmbH & Co. has introduced its Injection System USV for ultra-speed-vulcanizing technology, during the Rubber Expo in Cleveland.
The machine provides up to 75 percent reduction in cure time, compared with traditional injection presses, the company said, because of a higher start temperature. The technology offers smooth heating of the compound during the cycle with thermal conduction, according to LWB.
The USV 500 has a volume capacity of 500cc but the company is looking at developing a larger version, a spokesman said.
