Abstract

Ein fortlaufendes Verfahren zur Herstellung eines hülsenförmigen, vorzugsweise kanallosen Gummituchs sieht vor, dass eine hülsenförmige Basis (33) in einer ersten Station (100) zur Herstellung einer hülsenförmigen Basis fortlaufend hergestellt wird, die hülsenförmige Basis (33) fortlaufend axial von der ersten Station (100) durch eine weitere Station (200) zur Herstellung einer druckenden Schicht (45) bewegt wird, in der auf die hülsenförmige Basis (33) eine druckende Schicht (45) fortlaufend aufgetragen wird, während die hülsenförmige Basis (33) fortlaufend durch die weitere Station (200) bewegt wird. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform rotiert die hülsenförmige Basis (33), während sie axial von der ersten Station (100) durch die weitere Station (200) bewegt wird. Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform rotiert die hülsenförmige Basis (33) nicht (d.h., sie bleibt drehfest), während sie axial von der ersten Station (100) durch die weitere Station (200) bewegt wird.
