Tire Curing Press Global Market Report 2024

Tire curing presses are specialized machines used in tire manufacturing to vulcanize or cure green (uncured) tires by applying heat and pressure. This process transforms raw rubber into a more durable and elastic material through a chemical reaction with curing agents. It shapes the tire into its final form, including the tread pattern and sidewall details, to meet safety, performance, and durability specifications.

The main types of tire curing presses are mechanical curing presses, hydraulic curing presses, and hybrid curing presses. Mechanical curing presses use mechanical force, such as gears and levers, to apply pressure and heat and mold rubber into shape. The various molds used include two-piece molds and segmental molds. These presses are utilized in various end-users such as passenger car tires and commercial vehicle tires.
