Hose Testing Whether you are producing a single assembly or a production run, Kent Rubber has the test equipment and hose test specialists to give both you and the end user the assurance that the product has been assembled correctly. We can proof or burst test to a maximum pressure of 21,750 PSI. In addition a programmable PLC Controller gives our operators the ability to pre-program and repeat a test sequence and print the results on the attached tape (optional save to USB). Automatic Shape Acquisition System Our IntelliScanner Shape Acquisition System is a revolutionary camera digitizing device which is able to automatically acquire the geometric data from cardboard models, paper patterns or pre-cut components (gaskets as an example) without the use of a slow mouse pointer or traditional graphic digitizing tablets. The IntelliScanner automatically traces & auto-corrects the optical distortions of the camera exporting the acquired geometry in ATOM format ready to be cut on an ATOM dieless knife cutting system, or in DXF format, to be imported into any CAD system. By simply laying the pre-cut shapes onto the working table, single or multiple components, the system will automatically acquire the contour including possible notches, and/or uneven or regular contour holes. In addition, the system will define and modify other cutting entities, such as: internal cuts, marks, holes with defined diameters, text and even quality areas. Custom molded rubber For over seventy years, Kent Rubber has maintained a commitment to meeting our customers’ needs for custom molded rubber products. No matter the end use, application, or specifications, we can deliver the custom hoses, bumpers, seals, O-rings, grommets, and extrusions that you need.
