Automation for rubber production and processing
INTECH Automazione Sistemi designs control electronics for plants intended for rubber processing, where hardware robustness and software accuracy are crucial. We manage the automation of complex processes, from mixing to calendering, ensuring maximum reliability of drive systems and constant monitoring of pressure and temperature parameters.
Managing the viscosity of rubber
Industrial production segment
Processing rubber means handling materials with high mechanical strength that require sophisticated motor torque controls and thermal management that does not allow for errors.
Electrical engineering for mixers, calenders and extrusion lines
INTECH Automazione Sistemi manufactures custom-made switchboards, PLC/HMI software and drive systems for major machines used in the rubber industry:
-
Internal (Banbury) and Open Mixers: We design control systems to manage the mixing cycle, constantly monitoring the specific energy input, temperature, and piston pressure to ensure compound repeatability.
-
Rubber Calenders: We realize automation for sheet production and rubberizing of fabrics or metal fabrics, with precise control of roller gap and material tension (taper tension).
-
Extruders for Rubberized Compounds: We develop drives and software for cylinder and screw temperature management, which are essential to maintain ideal viscosity and avoid premature curing inside the machine.
-
Cooling and Cutting (Batch-off) Systems: We automate the end-of-process lines for plate cooling and cutting to size, synchronizing the conveying speed with the exit speed from the mixer or extruder.
-
Revamping and Safety: We upgrade dated plants with new safety architectures (Safety PLC) and high-efficiency drives, improving both production performance and operator protection according to current regulations.
Every project signed by INTECH Automazione Sistemi is designed to withstand the typical environmental conditions of this sector (black smoke, high temperatures, vibrations), ensuring uncompromising production continuity.
Our approach starts with an analysis of the critical issues typical of the industry: the risk of “scorch” of the material and the need for perfect homogeneity of the compound. We design automation systems that allow contractors and end producers to have full control over every step, ensuring that the electronics are always up to the mechanical force required.

Design and production of systems for industrial plant automation and enterprise energy transition
Our industrial plant design and automation activities are always thought out to the individual customer’s specifications. We support designers, technologists and plant engineers from the very first stage of work, so that we can network all the skills involved in the production process.
We design and manufacture electrical control panels. We study the best solutions based on the customer’s requirements to have the most efficient and quickest commissioning of the industrial automation system. Skilled technicians follow the whole realization of the switchboard up to installation.
Through revamping, the useful life of a machine can be extended by as much as fifteen to twenty years, with an average cost around half that of buying a new machine. Revamping can involve an entire industrial plant, a production line, or a single machine.
We use solutions and components by choosing from the most reliable brands on the market to have certainty of quality and full mastery of the machine. Components purchased externally are chosen from the most reliable partners on the market to ensure, in addition to high quality, easy availability of spare parts.
