Rubber fender for action
In order to reduce the impact force when the ship rests on the dock, anti-collision equipment must be installed at the front of the dock to prevent damage to the ship and the dock due to direct collision with the dock. China's ports began to use rubber fenders around 1970. At present, the rubber fenders used in the world can be divided into five types: compression type, balloon type, shear type, rotary type and hydraulic type, the first two are widely used. Most of the rubber fenders used in various ports in China are domestic compression fenders, including cylindrical, V-shaped, drum type, floating, foam rubber and W-shaped rubber fenders.
When rubber fender products are formed, it is impossible to remove the cohesion of the elastomer after high pressure pressure, and when the mold is released, there is a tendency to instability (the shrinkage of the rubber depends on the type of rubber). Stability and stability take time. Therefore, when first designing rubber products, regardless of the formula or mold, it is necessary to carefully calculate the good fit, otherwise the product size may be unstable, which will lead to a decline in product quality.
