Qingdao Xiangjie offers automated vulcanizing machines for seismic isolation materials, enhancing efficiency and reducing costs with advanced mold lifters and robotic arms.

In the production of seismic isolation materials, traditional manual mold removal methods have long been plagued by inefficiency, high labor intensity, and elevated production costs. Qingdao Xiangjie Rubber Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (“Xiangjie”) has leveraged its strong technical expertise and extensive industry experience to provide a fully automated production solution, helping its clients achieve significant improvements in efficiency and take a step toward intelligent manufacturing.

Challenges in Traditional Production

Before the adoption of fully automated equipment, clients' production workshops for seismic isolation materials faced several bottlenecks. Mold removal required manual pushing, pulling, and the use of crowbars, in conjunction with cranes, resulting in high labor intensity and low operational efficiency. The frequent use of cranes consumed approximately 20 minutes per operation, significantly affecting production capacity and cost control.

Xiangjie’s Automated Solution

To address these challenges, Xiangjie provided a comprehensive solution, including fully automated vulcanizing machines, mold lifters, and optional robotic arms. This system automates the entire mold removal process, eliminating the need for manual intervention. Cranes are only required for product lifting, while all mold handling is efficiently completed by automated equipment. This innovative solution significantly reduced reliance on manual labor and streamlined operations.

Remarkable Results

The introduction of automated equipment has delivered substantial benefits:

• Production cycle shortened by approximately 20%, boosting overall efficiency.

• Labor intensity reduced, creating a safer and more efficient working environment.

• Labor costs decreased by over 30%, making production lines more economical.

Progress Toward Industry 4.0

The successful application of automated mold lifters marks a key milestone in Xiangjie’s efforts to help clients transition toward Industry 4.0. Moving forward, clients plan to further enhance automation by incorporating advanced robotic arms and data collection systems to optimize production processes. These upgrades will not only improve efficiency but also ensure greater consistency and stability in product quality.

Conclusion

Through this innovative initiative, Xiangjie has empowered its clients to overcome traditional production bottlenecks and achieve intelligent upgrades, demonstrating the broad potential of automated equipment in seismic isolation material production. As a driving force in intelligent manufacturing, Xiangjie remains committed to delivering efficient, intelligent production solutions and enabling more businesses to achieve operational excellence and economic benefits.
