Owing to the company’s strategy for increasing its extra-large curing press, which laid a solid foundation for both domestic and foreign sales, Yiyang Rubber Machinery had contracts for 10 curing presses in the first quarter of this year, six of them the extra large curing presses.
Yiyang Rubber Machinery is a key national company whose main products are internal mixers, tire vulcanizers, curing press, and double-screw extruders, which do well both at home and abroad. Of these, the curing press has a large part of the domestic market and is a leader in the development of China’s curing press. Over the past few years, the company made a strategic decision on developing extra-large curing press and the technical staff worked hard to deal with technical difficulties in both hardware and software to meet the technical needs of an extra-larger machine production line, including large hot-plate deep drilling and two-hot-plate precision in parallelism. The company spent over 10 million yuan on 22-meter double column, numerical control, boring, milling and grinding machine tools, the first in China and developed China’s largest extra-large curing press, which was sold to some of the world’s most famous tire companies. After successfully producing the first model of this machine, the company was able to develop the longest, widest extra-large curing press unit last year.
While the company was developing the curing press, it also got support by getting industrialization and national fund for science and technology and gained both social and economic benefits.
