Our current technology is based on high performance elastomer compounds, often combined in multi-material constructions including: Silicone (VMQ): The best high/low temperature balance, Fluorosilicone (FVMQ): fluorine-containing silicone additional fuel and oil resistance, Ethylene-acrylate (AEM): carboxyl group containing rubber with weathering and fluid resistance, Polyacrylate (ACM): Full acrylate material with excellent oil resistance, Fluoroelastomers (FKMs): The highest thermal and chemical resistance
Line Machinery and equipment track:
In the production process, we use high-tech machinery and equipment.
Colmec Extruder Hose Shooting (Ø 90mm)
Bambury 110 lt (Closed mixer)
Rubber Dough Machine (Open mixer)
Textile knitting machine
Vacuum T head (It provides better adhesion of the hose drawn in 2 layers.)
Automatic length cutting machine (Length cutting process takes place according to the length and number of the hose to be produced.) Laser measuring device (Used to check the thickness of drawn hoses.)
Vulcanization Line (2 units of Ø 2 meters, length 5.5 meters, 12 bar pressure Autoclave boilers (45 minutes 180 ° C, 8 bar pressure)
Production Process
1. Project- New Product Commissioning
When our project unit will launch a new product, by purchasing 3 pieces of the original product;
1 product is sent to our R&D laboratory, for raw material tests,
1 product is sent to the molding room for making molds (scanned in a 3D scanning device). Here, the product is revealed by reverse engineering from the original products. One product is archived to bear witness samples.
2. Mixture Preparation:
Dough recipes are prepared in automation. The mixes we produce in our dough house, are kept in the resting room with air conditioning feature before extrusion. Products waiting for a suitable time are put into production in accordance with FIFO system.
Materials Used
ACM
AEM, HT AEM
NBR, HNBR
VMQ, FVMQ
FKM

EPDM
3. Extruder Hose Shooting:
With our cold-feed extruders of small to medium frame size, we have compact and reliable working machine. Special screw and barrel designs and configurations guarantee the high quality we require. We have high output and quality service.
Modern control concepts and functionalities specifically adapted to our application guarantees ease of operation and efficiency.
Owing to their ample screw torque and large screw speed range, our extruder can be used for many applications.
VMQ SILICONE RUBBER
USAGE AREAS: Radiator-heating hoses, Air hoses, turbocharger hot-cold side hoses, vacuum hoses.
TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE
– High temperature resistance (200-250°C). It can go up to 300°C in a short time.
– It maintains its flexibility at low temperatures.
– There are formulations that can maintain flexibility even at -60°C.
– Insulation, high heat resistance and flame retardant properties (High insulation feature)
– With ultraviolet rays, it is very resistant to the effects of Oxygen, Nitrogen and other gases.
– It is not affected by rain and surface waters.
– Low-density, lightweight materials are produced.
– Corrosion resistant
– Very good resistance to mineral oils
FVMQ- FKM RUBBER
AREAS OF USE: Air hoses, turbocharger hot side hoses, fuel hoses
Material Properties:
– FVMQ and FKM have high temperature resistance (250-300°C)
– The fluorine structure in FVMQ and FKM increases the oil-fuel resistance of both materials. It has a very high chemical resistance
– It has self-extinguishing feature.
– It has low deformation property at high temperature
– Since FVMQ and FKM are very expensive materials, they are generally used as a barrier coat in hoses.
HNBR:
– It is their high mechanical strength and more abrasion resistance.
– Usage temperature is 150⁰C
