Description

Ecologization of tyre bead production by technological innovations in machinery and processes:

The project is aimed at solving the need of significant reductions of energy and material consumption, capital investments and production, operational and maintenance costs in the technological process of tyre bead manufacturing by re-designing tyre bead machinery produced by the applicant.

Summary of project results

The project aimed to address several challenges in the tyre bead manufacturing process, including high energy and material consumption, significant capital investments, and high production, operational, and maintenance costs. The goal was to develop technical solutions to reduce these factors by redesigning tyre bead machinery.

The project involved developing technical solutions to redesign tyre bead machinery, resulting in significant reductions in energy and material consumption, capital investments, and production, operational, and maintenance costs. The project also aimed to implement up-to-date control systems and information technologies. The outputs of the project will be realized through the production and sales of environment-friendly hi-tech products with high added value, competitive in global markets.

The project targeted tyre manufacturers worldwide, who will benefit from reduced energy and material consumption, lowered capital costs, and the implementation of modern control systems and information technologies. In the medium and long term, the project aims to introduce a new generation of energy and material-efficient machinery in the rubber industry, contributing to more sustainable and cost-effective production processes.
