Compounding, moulding and completion of your product
AVK Elastomer Technology produces high performance rubber components for demanding applications
Mixing of rubber compounds
Since AVK Elastomer Technology is part of the AVK Group, we have access to the high-quality rubber compounds produced by AVK GUMMI in Denmark in one of the world’s most advanced, fully automated mixing plants.
This ensures full traceability and makes it possible for us to offer you rubber compounds of a uniquely high quality and uniformity.
Please read more here about the mixing process on the website of our parent company, AVK GUMMI.
Manufacturing of items
We produce the items at our factories in Denmark, the Netherlands, China and our soon to be completed US factory in Nevada. We have a high-tech production plant, mainly based on injection moulding. However, we do also produce items based on transfer and compression moulding, e.g. diaphragms with moulded fabric and film coating. Finally, we manufacture sintered PTFE-diaphragms.
The common denominator is high quality, which is expressed through high reproducibility, narrow tolerances, high finish as well as a high degree of cross-link density. Our wide range of machines makes it possible for us to manufacture complex items, from micro parts to large items up to 2x2x0,8 metres.
Composite products
AVK Elastomer Technology manufactures many different composite components by which rubber is vulcanised to bond with other materials such as stainless steel, other types of metal, PTFE and fabric. The bonding between these materials is crucial for ensuring that the product has the right function. Therefore, this technology is an essential part of our know-how.
Bonding between the materials must meet the highest quality demands. We therefore work in close cooperation with suppliers and research institutes in order to developed unique methods for pretreatment and the application of the right primers and bonding agents.
Post-treatment
Post-treatment of the rubber components is just as important as the actual production process. Burrs from the moulding process must be removed, many items must be post-cured, some polished and others washed and packed in cleanroom facilities.
Following a final inspection, we pack the items and make sure that all documentation is ready for shipment.
We carry out every step in accordance with the instructions agreed with you.
