We are continually adding new products and new capabilities to our existing
lines.
Microwave Ovens
CV-136/236 -- a family of ovens with 12 to 36 kilowatts of microwave
power that include built-in, high temperature, high velocity hot air
to lessen your dependence on special compounding.
System 2000 -- Use as a booster for your existing
line or for laboratory applications. Can deliver 12 kilowatts of microwave
power and includes electric hot air to give an approximate capacity
of 600 lbs/hr (270 kg/hr).
Turbo Air Curing
When profiles get thinner as, for example, with automotive
glass run channels, the intelligent application of Hot Air is often
the method of choice in your continuous vulcanization line. High temperature
moist gas, fired at high velocity, provides outstanding heat transfer
coefficients and precise, continuously adjustable controls, and is far
cleaner than salt.
Preheaters
Preheaters have many beneficial effects in the production
of sponge extrusions. They are installed immediately after the extruder
and before the microwave vulcanizer. Preheaters provide surface heating
to the extrusions, which results in a smooth, tight skin profile while
it is being blown in the microwave. Preheaters start the curing process
and improve green strength.
Post Cure Hot Air Ovens
Cober offers a range of electrically generated or gas-fired
curing ovens in various lengths from 10-40ft (3-12m) featuring fully
controllable hot air at very high velocity with a very high heat transfer
coefficient.
These are only some of the products available.
We also offer various types of low velocity flocking ovens, bale preheaters
for the mixing room, batch preheaters for the molding room and advanced
downstream processing equipment.
