摘要
This article introduces a combined device that integrates the functions of mold adjustment and force measurement mechanisms for mechanical tire shaping and curing presses, enabling simultaneous automatic mold adjustment, recording, and display of cold mold clamping force. The device, achieved by adding a rotary displacement encoder and upgrading the PLC program, features a simple structure, convenient operation, and strong versatility. It offers a low-cost and easy-to-implement solution for the intelligent retrofitting of existing curing presses.
