Thrissur, Kerala Full Time Date: 12 June 2024

Job description

Inspection: The first step in the retreading process involves a thorough inspection of the tire to assess its condition and suitability for retreading. Tires with significant damage or wear beyond repair are discarded. Buffing: The tire's old tread is removed using a specialized machine called a buffer. The buffer shaves off the worn tread layer and prepares the surface of the tire for the application of new tread rubber. Repair and Reinforcement: Any damage to the tire's casing, such as cuts, punctures, or sidewall damage, is repaired. Additional layers of rubber may be applied to reinforce the tire's casing and improve its strength and durability. Application of New Tread: A layer of fresh tread rubber is applied to the buffed surface of the tire using a process called "building." The new tread is molded onto the tire using heat and pressure to ensure proper adhesion and bonding. Curing: The retreaded tire is placed in a curing chamber or mold, where it undergoes a curing process. Heat and pressure are applied to bond the new tread rubber to the tire's casing and shape the tread pattern. Final Inspection: Once the curing process is complete, the retreaded tire undergoes a final inspection to ensure quality and adherence to industry standards. The tire is examined for proper tread depth, uniformity, adhesion, and overall integrity. Trimming and Finishing: Any excess rubber is trimmed from the tire's tread area, and the retreaded tire is finished to achieve a smooth and uniform tread surface. The tire is then labeled and marked with relevant information, including its retread date and specifications. Quality Assurance: Throughout the retreading process, quality control measures are implemented to ensure the safety, performance, and reliability of the retreaded tires. Quality checks are performed at various stages to detect any defects or irregularities and address them promptly. Environmental Benefits: Tyre retreading is an environmentally friendly practice as it reduces the need for new tire production, conserves natural resources.
