Here's a close-up shot of the control panel for the R 23 Tread Builder
- The R-23 Tread Builder was designed for the production shops. It applies the cushion gum and the tread rubber separately to the tire. This requires the operator to make two applications to the tire allowing him to find nail holes in the casing prior to applying the tread rubber.
- The tread cutter has been designed to cut the tread to the proper length. As the tread rubber is cut, the carbide coated cutter blade texturizes the butt ends of the rubber so that it is ready to be spliced.
- The cutter is operated with an air over air system so that the cutter operates smoothly without jerks or lunges. This system uses no oil and eliminates the possibility of contamination of the tread and the mess usually associated with air over oil systems.
- With the optional secondary stitcher the R-23 is capable of building full cap die stock rubber.
- The R-23 Tread Builder operates mainly on compressed air using 115 volts AC current to operate the solenoid valves and the cutter motor. Air motors are used to eliminate drift when stopped. This provides a high degree of accuracy when measuring the tread rubber length.
- Cushioned air cylinders are used, where necessary, to protect the cylinders and component from damage when traveling to their limits with no load.
- Most machined components are manufactured on the latest computer numerical control equipment to guarantee accuracy and repeatability in machinery.
