Retread Facts

Published by the Tire Retread & Repair Information Bureau
Retreaded truck tires represent a savings of over $3 billion dollars annually for truckers and trucking companies in North America.
For most fleets, tires represent the second largest item in their operating budget, right after labor and fuel costs.


The lowest possible cost-per-mile is achieved with a good tire management program that includes the use of quality retreads. (Hot Topic)
Retreads are the replacement tire of choice for many truckers. Nearly half of all replacement truck tires are retreads.
Retreads are not only cost effective, but they are also dependable, reliable and safe. Retreads are used by truckers with scheduled delivery times, small package delivery companies with guaranteed delivery times, including the U.S. Postal Service, on commercial and military jets, by most school bus operators, taxis, and many other types of vehicles.
Retreads are also environmentally friendly. Tires are basically petro-chemical products. It takes approximately 22 gallons of oil to manufacture one new truck tire. Most of the oil is found in the casing, which is reused in the retreading process. As a result, it takes only approximately 7 gallons of oil to produce a retread. Wide based truck tires save even more fuel.
Retreaders, like trucking companies, have experienced considerable consolidation. Today, the most successful retreaders are those with the highest quality products, delivering the best possible return on investment to the fleets. Because of the competitive nature of the retreading industry, truckers can expect to see continuous improvement in quality, durability and reliability, as the major retread suppliers annually invest millions of dollars in research and development.

Jenis Vulkanisir dan tahapan proses pabrikasi

Jenis Vulkanisir yang kami Tawarkan yaitu System Dingin (precure), dan System Panas (mouldcure)

kedua system ini pada dasarnya, sama sama menghasilkan ban yang telah habis ketika di gunakan menjadi kembali baru.
namun hanya proses pengerjaan nya saja yang berbeda.
untuk system dingin dan panas sama sama melewati tahap demi tahap dari proses tersebut, seperti:
1. Inspeksi awal (pemeriksaan awal ban sebelum masuk ruang produksi), kemudian
2. Proses Buffing (yaitu proses pemarutan/ pembuangan sisa telapak lama),
3. Proses repairing (proses penambalan pada ban yang terdapat lubang/ kerusakan kecil yang masih layak untuk di perbaiki),
4. Proses building (yaitu proses pemasangan tapak karet baru pada ban yang telah di parut)
dan langkah terakhir adalah proses pemasakan / proses inti, disini lah beda nya antara proses panas dan dingin.

Proses dingin: menggunakan semacam lapisan karet yang disebut envelopes yang digunakan untuk menutupi casing/ badan ban yang akan dicetak sistem dingin, dan tentunya setelah melewati proses bulding, kemudian setelah itu ban yang telah di lapisi envelopes tersebut dimasukan kedalam ruangan mesin/ chamber yang berbentuk seperti kapsul besar, dan di press dengan tekanan dan suhu yang telah di sesuaikan dan dalam waktu yang telah di program, sehingga menghasilkan produk yang bermutu.

sedangkan Proses panas ban tidak di lapisi oleh envelopes, tetapi setelah ban melewati proses building dengan baik, maka ban tersebut dimasukkan ke dalam chamber / mesin yang berberntuk seperti kerang yang terbuka, dan kemudian ban tersebut akan di press dan di cetak melalui mesin tersebut pada waktu dan suhu yang telah ditentukan pula, sehigga mendapatkan hasil akhir yang baik.

(untuk vulkanisir dingin tapak vulkanisir tidak dicetak di dalam mesin seperti proses panas, karena tapak vulkanisir itu telah tercetak pada awalnya/ karet jadi, karena itu di dalam chamber dingin, ban hanya di press dan disatukan dengan badan ban dengan cara peningkatan suhu uap dalam mesin, sedangkan proses panas tapak dicetak di dalam mesin, karena karet tapak nya masih merupakan karet mentah, sehingga ketika proses pemasakan system panas, karet akan memuai dan mengikuti alur dari cetakan tersebut)
