VMI presenting latest developments for the automation of the retreading process at Tire Cologne
At the upcoming The Tire Cologne expo, VMI will present its latest developments for the automation of the retreading process. Advances will include an automatic splice unit, which will be on display and available for short demonstrations.
Other VMI innovations in this space include the Retraxx, designed for application of the extruded hot cushion gum on a ‘buffed’ tire casing – a process that currently requires a high level of skilled manual labour.
Furthermore, VMI account manager Ronald Noppers will deliver a presentation on automation solution in retreading, on 11 June at The Tire Cologne.
VMI will be present at The Tire Cologne in hall 7, stand number: C-041.
