An apparatus for producing a rubber caterpillar track with tensile members has a cylindrical internal shape for forming the inside contour of the rubber caterpillar track, wherein the internal shape has a cylindrical dome which, in the circumferential direction (U) on its radial outer side, has a plurality of recesses for accommodating unvulcanized shaped elements for internal teeth, and has a cylindrical external shape for forming the outside contour of the rubber caterpillar track, wherein the external shape has a plurality of external shape segments in the circumferential direction (U). The external shape segments each have a recess on their radial inner side for accommodating an unvulcanized shaped element for external teeth. The invention further relates to a method for producing a rubber caterpillar track with tensile members.
An apparatus for making a rubber caterpillar track having tensile members, the apparatus comprising:
A method for making a rubber caterpillar track using an apparatus having a cylindrical inner mold configured to form the inner contour of the rubber caterpillar track, the cylindrical inner mold having a cylindrical mandrel defining a radially outer side and a circumferential direction U, the cylindrical mandrel defining a plurality of first recesses on the radially outer side in the circumferential direction U, the first recesses being configured to receive unvulcanized shaped elements for inner teeth, a cylindrical outer mold configured to form an outer contour of the rubber caterpillar track, the cylindrical outer mold having a multiplicity of outer mold segments, the outer mold segments each defining a radially inner side, and the outer mold segments each having a second recess configured to receive an unvulcanized shaped element for outer teeth on the radially inner side, the method comprising the steps of:
