Claim 0:
1. A method for controlling curing apparatuses for tyre production, wherein said curing apparatuses are adapted to work on green tyres to obtain corresponding finished tyres, said method comprising:
acquiring, through a processing unit, initial parameters describing at least one of shape and dimensions of said finished tyres;
computing, through said processing unit, as a function of said initial parameters, first parameters describing said green tyres, said first parameters comprising at least one parameter representative of an axial height of said green tyres;
acquiring, through said processing unit, second parameters describing said curing apparatuses, said second parameters comprising one or more parameters representative of dimensions of said curing apparatuses;
computing, through said processing unit, third parameters as a function of said first parameters and said second parameters, said third parameters comprising one or more parameters representative of positions taken by movable members included in said curing apparatuses;
generating, through said processing unit, as a function of said third parameters, control signals for controlling the movable members of said curing apparatuses and for obtaining said finished tyres starting from said green tyres; and
sending said control signals from said processing unit to said curing apparatuses such that said movable members move in accordance with the control signals when working on green tires to obtain corresponding finished tyres.
