Webinar: Gear Pump Technology in Rubber Application
March 19 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
March 19, 2026; 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. ET
Webinar Overview: This webinar focuses on the benefit of gear pump extruders for rubber processing and their specific characteristics. A gear pump, due to its volumetric transport characteristics, is predestined for applications such as precise extrusion and high-pressure operations, as well as precise dosing applications. By combining different extruder technologies with a gear pump, it becomes a modular system for different applications in rubber processing.
Webinar Objectives: This webinar focuses on the gear pump technology in well-known rubber processes in mixing and extrusion lines and it will include the following topics:
- Introduction and history
- Function principal basics of gear pumps
- Process technological basics
- Waste reduction and quality improvement
- Straining within the straining cell
- Straining within the mixing line
- Straining within the extrusion line
- Straining within the rework line
- Gear pump technology for precise extrusion
- Rubber extrusion lines
- High pressure applications for wire, fiber and yarn
- Gear pump technology in continuous mixing (dosing)
- Gear pump technology in silicone compounding
- Future applications and outlook
- Summary
Who Should Take This Webinar: The webinar is designed for mechanical and chemical engineers in the rubber industry. Centered around process techniques in mixing and extrusion, it is the perfect training for individuals working in engineering, R&D or quality improvement.
