Abstract :
The continuous process of coating fabrics with rubber, such as is used in tire manufacturing, involves several individual machines that present operating problems not met successfully by mechanical drives. A new co-ordinated electric drive has been developed which does meet these requirements using amplidyne, and also electronic, control. It is expected that quality and production will be improved by this equipment. The means employed may be applied successfully to other industries.
