Vulcaweld from Shaw Almex is the superior press for splicing lightweight rubber belting. With increased pressure capacity, the Vulcaweld is designed for rubber conveyors that do not require heavyweight splice equipment. Constructed with proprietary Almex technology, the Vulcaweld boasts the following advanced features:
PLATENS: Assembled with extruded plank, silicon heating element, and durable composite insulating packaging, each platen is flexible and will contour to the irregularities of the conveyor (assuring uniform pressure). Operational temperatures of 163C to 200C.
FRAME: Sturdy two-piece aluminum frame is light and easy to maneuver for splice placement. Frame can be mounted to cantilever stand for shop use; pneumatic lift optional for upper platen, making for easier use and decreased splice time.
CONTROL PANEL: T1R, T2, and T3 Control Panels available to accommodate various amp and volt requirements. Panels with additional timer (T2T and T3T) or fully automatic operation feature, including pressure and cooling functions, available to buy (T2TC and T3TC).
PRESSURE/COOLING: Engineered for lightweight rubber belt, Vulcaweld has a maximum pressure of 5kg/cm2. Uniform pressure applied with unique Almex pressure bag. Up-stroking pressure is standard but down-stroking design optional. Cooling fluid channeled through extruded platen using C1M or C1 cooling applicator. Quikool System also available for air pressure application and faster water cooling function.
