Is it possible to automate the cutting of rubber hoses?

Yes, it's very easy and there is a wide range of machines available. The key questions are whether the material is reinforced or unreinforced, which thicknesses are to be cut and at what speed. Downstream from an extruder, the automatic rubber cutting machine must of course be able to keep to the extruder's cycle

Can a machine that automatically cuts rubber products work in sync with the extruder?

Yes, of course. The automatic cutting of the rubber material is the logical consequence of production using an extruder. Of course, the extruder then sets the pace for the line.

Can reinforced rubber also be processed automatically

Yes, that's possible with the CCM machines from Metzner. But of course there are differences here: When reinforced but flexible material comes out of the extruder, different machines are used than for rigid material.

Automatic rubber tube cutting machines as well as the perfect rubber strip cutter

Whether you are a rubber component manufacturer producing in series or offering individual solutions, Metzner has the perfect rubber tube cutting machine as well as the right rubber strip cutter in its portfolio with which you can precisely implement your customers’ requirements. You have two options:

The Metzner MBS is a modular system consisting of the processing machine for 3 different product widths (100 mm, 200 mm and 390 mm | 3.9″; 7.9″and 1′ 3.4″) and a gigantic number of tools. In total, there are around 10,000 possible combinations.

The special feature: As a rubber component manufacturer, you can insert 2 tools into each machine at the same time, which complete their work in a single operation. You can also change them in no time at all without tools.

Tools can also be purchased later or adapted. The MBS is always the right solution if the material is within the width dimensions, cuts, punchings or drillings are to be made and if you can cope with the speed of 170 cuts/minute. Metzner is also the right choice for all other requirements.
