Abstract
Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to research a multi-zone rubber vulcanization process heated by induction. Design/methodology/approach -The design is an abstract setup model with two zones, where the homogene rubber compound is heated with different regimes. Simulation is completely done in ANSYS Mechanical by the finite element method solution. The research is made mostly simulative. Findings -The results show that it is possible to obtain a factor-Three vulcanization level difference in a core of a 20-mm rubber plate in a distance of less than 60 mm, while the heating is done from the side of the surface. Originality/value -The originality is the combination of rubber vulcanization with a dynamic heat source in a form of electromagnetic induction applied on the mold form. This allows a high level of control of the vulcanization process of the rubber compound.
