Once the materials are prepared, the production process involves several key steps extrusion, curing, and finishing. During the extrusion phase, the raw rubber is shaped into a belt-like form, ensuring that it has the characteristic V-profile. After shaping, the belts undergo a curing process, also known as vulcanization, where they are heated to solidify the structure and enhance durability. Finally, finishing touches are applied, including cutting the belts to specific lengths, inspecting for quality, and preparing them for packaging and distribution.
