A simple rubber bumper is a piece that is connected to the desired place in a simple way without screws. It is used in various industries such as automobile manufacturing, building construction, industrial equipment, etc. But the screw rubber bumper is connected to the desired location using bolts and nuts. It is used in various industries such as automobile manufacturing, building construction, industrial equipment, etc. Also, the spring rubber bumper is a part that has a spring and can reduce shocks and vibrations well. This type of shock absorber is used in similar industries as before.
Rubber cushion
Maybe the name of this product seems a little strange to you. A rubber cushion is a piece made of rubber and used to absorb shocks and vibrations. It can be said that the use of cushions is the same as rubber bumpers. Rubber cushions are produced in different types, including simple rubber cushions, screw rubber cushions, spring rubber cushions, etc. Its simple type is a piece that is connected to the desired place in a simple way without screws. The screw rubber cushion is attached to the desired location using screws and nuts. But the spring rubber cushion that has a spring can absorb shocks and vibrations well. All three of these items are used in various industries such as automobile manufacturing, construction, industrial equipment, etc.
Spiral hydrotest corner
Spiral hydrotest corner is a piece made of rubber and used to prevent water leakage in hydrotest tests. The corner of the spiral hydrotest has a shape similar to the letter U, and there are flanges at both ends that are connected to the pipes by means of bolts and nuts. Now, you may ask, what does the hydrotest test include? It is a type of pressure test that deals with leakage test, durability or volume expansion measurement. This test determines if the device is leaking or not. It also determines the durability of the device or device against pressure. It is very important to perform this test when making fire extinguishers or oxygen canisters.
Siebel Hydrotest RB
Siebel Hydrotest RB is a piece made of rubber and used to prevent water leakage in hydrotest tests. This sibil has a circular shape and there is a hole in the middle that is connected to the pipe by a screw. With this short description, you can understand the great importance of this piece. It can be used in various industries such as pharmaceutical, petrochemical, etc. These are enough to understand the importance of this element.
The importance of using rubber parts in industry
So far in the article, you may have realized the importance and many uses of rubber pieces. But the four main features of these parts have caused them to be used a lot.
- Resistance and strength
- flexibility
- Resistance to moisture and chemicals
- Insulation against sound and heat
Let’s mention a few examples to show how useful these features are. First imagine an industrial roller. How the roller works correctly is very important in various industries. The use of rubber pieces reduces the impact on the roller. Or, for example, imagine an industrial hood with a strange shape. A flexible rubber should protect it. Tires are flexible because they are made of elastic material. Also, because of their texture, they can be resistant to sound, heat and humidity.
Production process of rubber parts
These parts can be produced in different ways and ready to use. Here we will introduce the three main methods of producing rubber pieces. Before introducing the methods, it is not bad to tell you something. Note that each method has its own characteristics. Therefore, a special method should be used to make different parts. Otherwise, a good result will not be obtained.
Injection molding
This method can be considered the simplest and most common method for producing rubber pieces. The use of this method started many years ago and is still one of the main and important ways. Now let’s examine the process of producing rubber parts with this method. In this method, the melted rubber compound is injected into the mold. After cooling, the rubber piece is produced and ready for consumer use.
Compression molding
But let’s go to another common method of producing a rubber piece. Before introducing this method, it is necessary to mention one point. Note that the pressure molding method is used to produce hard and strong rubber parts. The way to do it is that the rubber compound is pressed into the mold and after cooling, the rubber part is produced. The final product can be used in places where the part is under a lot of pressure.
Extrusion
Extrusion is another main method of producing a rubber part. In fact, this method can be considered indirect condensation. How to do it? In this method, the rubber compound is continuously removed from the mold. Then the product will be ready to use after cooling. This method makes the final product have high strength. Why? Because due to high pressure, materials pass through a small cross section and their power increases significantly. This method is a newer method than injection and pressure methods.
Rubber pieces in various industries
So far in the article, we have mentioned several times that rubber pieces can be used in various industries. These industries can even be vital industries in the growth and development of a country and its people. In the following, we will examine some of these industries.
