At Watts Urethane we’re focused on continuous improvement to enhance manufacturing capabilities and customer engagement. In a series of plant improvements over the past 18 months we have recently added a major investment of a tunnel oven to help support the production of predominately wheel & tyre products. This piece of plant hugely increases our capacity and reduces product lead-times in this area.
The main benefit of a tunnel oven verses a batch style oven is that it allows for the continuous production of parts, leading to energy and labour efficiency. A conveyor systems is used move moulds filled with liquid Polyurethane through the oven tunnel. 40 minutes later the cured part comes out the other side ready to be taken out of the mould. This process improves the consistency and also the quality of the part produced.
