The ABT-150 Rubber Tire Coding Production Line is an internationally advanced heavy-pigment tire coding system developed and manufactured by Shanghai Xiwu Technology Co., Ltd. Adopting revolutionary SMD DOD-COMMAND technology, combined with innovative ruby nozzles and ACCESS software, it is specifically designed for tread marking and printing of tire manufacturing enterprises. It can meet the identification and traceability needs of various specifications of tires and has been widely used in the production lines of well-known domestic and foreign tire enterprises.

Core Composition

The production line consists of a host computer, executive mechanism, auxiliary system and software, with a comprehensive configuration suitable for industrial production scenarios:

Core Performance Parameters

Printing Capacity: Character height adjustable from 10-45mm, printing dot matrix supports multiple specifications including 5×5, 7×5, 9×7, 16×10. The maximum printing speed reaches 80 characters/second (5×5 dot matrix), which can print Chinese, English, numbers, dates, shifts, logos, etc. simultaneously, supporting various character formats such as bold, reverse, and inverted.

Adaptable Speed: The maximum speed of the production line is 120 meters/minute. It achieves precise speed matching with the production line through the synchronizer interface, adapting to two modes: continuous coding and intermittent coding.

Ink Performance: Uses special C633 type ink and C632 type thinner, temperature resistance up to 180℃, drying time only 2-3 seconds. After vulcanization, it does not stick to the mold or change color, is water-resistant, wear-resistant, environmentally friendly and safe, meeting the requirements of vulcanization process and outdoor use.

Operating Environment: Suitable for industrial environments with temperature 5-60℃ and humidity ≤90%. Power supply requirement is 220V±10% 50HZ, power ＜100W. Compressed air requirement is 0.2-0.4Mpa (oil-free and water-free), complying with GB/T13277-91 or ISO8573.1 standard.

Core Technical Features

Anti-clogging Design: Equipped with an ink circulation system. After printing, the ink is pumped back to the ink tank by a circulation pump. Combined with the regular magnetic stirring function, it avoids ink stratification and nozzle clogging. The one-key automatic nozzle unblocking function can quickly solve minor clogging faults.

Intelligent Protection Function: The spray nozzle adopts a pure mechanical anti-collision structure. It can automatically avoid and reset printing when encountering protrusions on the tread, effectively protecting the equipment. The IP54 protection level is suitable for complex workshop environments.

Efficient and Convenient Operation: Supports two modes: direct keyboard editing and remote control by upper computer. Printing information can be automatically generated without manual intervention. The printing height can be precisely adjusted by turning the screw rod with a handwheel (the distance between the nozzle and the tread is 10-25mm), adapting to tires of different specifications.

Stable and Reliable Operation: Supports 24/7 continuous operation in three shifts. The counter has an incremental/decremental function. The printed characters are clear and uniform, without missing dots, scattered dots, trailing dots, etc., meeting the needs of industrial large-scale production.

Working Process

Preprocessing: After the production line starts, the operator edits printing information such as material code, shift, and date through the controller or upper computer, or directly calls the MES system formula.

Positioning Trigger: After the tread is extruded and passes through the marking station, it is transported to the coding station. When the photoelectric sensor switch detects the tread in-position signal, the spray nozzle descends to the specified position through the lifting cylinder.

Printing Operation: The spray nozzle receives instructions from the controller and completes coding according to the set format and speed, supporting continuous or intermittent printing modes.

Reset and Cleaning: After printing, the spray nozzle automatically rises to the initial position to wait for the next cycle. At the end of the shift, the automatic cleaning function can be activated to prevent ink drying and nozzle clogging.

Data Traceability: The printing information is synchronized to the relevant system in real time to form a complete product traceability chain.

Service Guarantee and Application Cases

After-sales Service: In addition to the Shanghai headquarters, the company has service stations in Tianjin, Hangzhou, Putian and other places. It provides telephone response within 1 hour after receiving a fault report, and on-site service for domestic customers within 48 hours. It offers a 1-year quality warranty period. For non-human faults during the warranty period, the replaced parts enjoy a 12-month extended warranty.

Successful Cases: It has been successfully applied in well-known domestic and foreign tire enterprises such as Cheng Shin Rubber, Zhongce Rubber, Giti Tire, Continental Tire, and Sailun Jinyu. It covers the production lines of various types of tires including passenger cars and commercial vehicles, adapting to the production needs of factories in multiple regions.
