Tire Cutting & Inspection

Designed to address critical foreign object challenges in rubber mixing and calendering, SBT Ultrasonic's X-Ray Automatic Inspection & Rejection System delivers end-to-end quality assurance for tire manufacturing.

Unlike conventional metal detectors that miss non-metallic contaminants (like plastics and wood)—which can cause internal blistering, cracking, and costly batch scrapping—this advanced system uses high-resolution X-ray imaging to capture all hidden defects. Engineered for harsh, high-dust and high-humidity workshop environments, it features an automated closed-loop process of detection, alarm, and rejection. By intercepting defective materials at the source, the system helps manufacturers minimize waste, eliminate after-sales risks, and meet the rigorous quality standards of leading automotive OEMs.

The SBT Ultrasonic Plunge Cutting System is used to cut tire rubber (tire tread rubber, sidewall rubber, bead filler, shoulder rubber), cleanly, consistently and with precision. With the components from SBT ULTRASONIC, the ultrasonic stack will improve your ROI. 

The SBT Ultrasonic Traverse Cutting System is used to cut tire rubber (tire inner liner rubber, sidewall rubber, PA, bead filler, shoulder rubber, tread rubber), cleanly, consistently and with precision. With the components from SBT ULTRASONIC, the ultrasonic stack will improve your ROI. 

SBT Ultrasonic Cutting Horns, also referred to as the blade horns, are robust and durable. A wide array of configurations are available, each custom engineered for the specific application to ensure exacting, long-term performance. With typical ultrasonic rubber cutting applications, the angle of the blade horn, thickness and type of rubber, and the style of cut ultimately affect the cutting speed. Two main styles of cut are prevalent—plunge and traverse.

Ultrasonic is the tried and tested cutting technology used to cut tire rubber cleanly, consistently and with precision. Thanks to its sturdy components from SBT ULTRASONIC, the ultrasonic stack will improve your ROI. We guarantee that the service life of your cutting tool will be significantly extended. It will also allow you to avoid down time and improve your output. The 40kHz Ultrasonic Cutting System is applicable to various components of tire manufacturing, such as the cushion gum, bead filler, tread, inner liner, and sidewall.
