Windshield Wiper Blade
Windshield Wiper Blade
(OP)
A Chinese injection molding company is planning to build a brand new rubber/silicone windshield wiper blade production line. I am involved in this project. I am totally new in this area. I wonder if anyone could tell me where I could get the formulation/technology internationally and what kind of equipment/process should be used? Or any engineering firm could help? The company is willing to pay for the information/technology.

1. Intermix-type mixer.
2. 2x mills sized to fit with the mixer.
3. Straining extruder to remove grit etc from the compounds
4. Rubber extruder.
5. Microwave and hot air curing tunnels.
6. Length cutter.
I'm in no position to help regarding the formulations used as I work for the Malaysian Rubber Board and they won't let me help other asian-based companies.

Extruder with barrier (Mailiffer, HIM) screw - Farrel, Kobe, Iddon.
No one moulds wiperblades these days - too inefficient.
RE: Windshield Wiper Blade
Chinese mixers do not have access to the high quality/low grit raw materials that we do, and this makes extrusion of this type of product impossible.
This is a lousy market to be in...tell your investors to look at something more profitable.
