Introduction to rubber processing and safety issues - HSE
Introduction to rubber processing and safety issues This section provides details of the mechanical processes involved in the production of various types of rubber goods. Details are included of the various safety and fire and explosion hazards but there are only brief references made to the health risks. For information on health risks see health and safety topics. The industry uses very powerful machinery with the potential to cause fatal and serious injuries. There are established industry safeguarding standards for two-roll mills, internal mixers and calenders. Many serious accidents take place during repairs or to clear blockages etc. and there must be procedures in place to ensure that safe interventions take place. Contents Compounding (including powder handling, mixing and milling) Extrusion Calendering Cloth coating Fabrication (including tank lining, roller covering, and hose winding) Vulcanisation (including presses, autoclaves and continuous vulcanisation) Latex processing Polyurethanes (including PU foam production, reconstituted foam and conversion and rigid urethanes) Tyre building
adding lubricant or other small ingredients. Where access to the trap is possible, interlock movement of the . ... Screw (or scroll) extruders These machines convey uncured rubber forwards down the barrel and through the die by the action of a rotating screw. They produce continuous extruded sections such as cable covering.
