UNIXX Belt Maker

The unique flexibility of the system exactly fits the global trend towards shorter production runs and a greater diversity of tire specifications to be produced.

The system is optimally suited for hands-off, eyes-off production. Scrap and waste from angle- and compound changes are reduced because of the limited width of the extruded strip. Next to this, the automated and accurately controlled process produces a consistent high quality belt.

The highly efficient extrusion and cutting process, reduced waste and scrap, lower energy consumption and minimum operator involvement, result in a lower overall cost per produced square meter steel belt compared to the conventional belt making process.

The VMI UNIXX Belt Maker allows for the production of thinner belts to reduce tire weight and rolling resistance without compromising tire performance, contributing to a lower fuel consumption and CO₂e emission levels.

The VMI UNIXX Belt Maker gives our customers the following advantages:

• Ultimate flexibility.
• High quality steel belt.
• Low environmental impact.
• Reduced operating costs.
