An Overview Of The Tire Making Process

by teahupoo

Tire manufacture is a complex process which also involves the
extraction of latex from the rubber tree. The latex that oozes
out of the tree are collected and sent to the tire manufacturing
companies directly. Here it is processed and black sheets of
rubber are produced. Tire manufacturing is a process which has
several components in it that are said to be constructed in a
drum called the Tire Building Machine (TBM). This is the only
major equipment in manufacturing a tire. The machine can be
manually operated. However nowadays all the tires are
manufactured through automated process.

The inner liner is the first component in tire manufacture. It
can with stand high pressure and does not allow the air to be
escaped from the inner layer of the tire. Next comes the body
ply. This is a three layer component of tire. The first layer is
a sheet of rubber the second is a fabric layer and then again a
rubber layer. It is said that this is the component that gives
the tire a rigid strength that is able to carry the immense
weight of the large trucks and buses. The next component is the
side wall that gives good environmental resistance to the tires.

Beads are the steel lining in the tire. It is an important part
in the tire as it gives the tensile strength to the tire. This
still lining is coated with brass to avoid corrosion. The next
component is the tread that gives a good grip to the tire. The
thread is the depressions in the tire that will hold the tire on
the ground in case of braking. Cushion gum is an extra component
used in some tire manufacturing which seals the tear of the
rubber by the steel lining in side the tire.

All these components are built one by one in side a tire
building machine. Several other chemical components are mixed
with them to get the needed strength in the tire. The tire that
results as a result of the tire building machine is known as the
green tire. This tire then undergoes curing process which will
give the final product. Vulcanization is an important process in
tire manufacturing. In this process the rubber is hardened to get
the required strength and elasticity. This occurs naturally in
this process when the raw rubber and molecular sulfur is mixed
each other. It will close the pores in the rubber.
