The rubber tracks for excavators are constructed using the following materials:
- Vulcanized rubber
- Steel cables
- Steel links
Steel links
The links are manufactured from high-quality, wear-resistant steel. During production, the forged links undergo a hardening process, which gives them their final wear-resistant properties.
The links feature a specific shape that allows them to interlock with one another. This increases the rigidity of the rubber track and minimizes the risk of de-tracking.
Depending on the track type and application, the rubber track is assembled using links shaped to help reduce vibration (anti-vibration properties). Thanks to the staggered pattern and the shape of the steel links, the links form a nearly continuous track with only minor gaps between the links.
As a result, the undercarriage's bottom rollers receive constant support, effectively eliminating extreme vibration while driving.
Steel cables
Vulcanized rubber
Following a vulcanization process, the rubber used completely encapsulates the cables and links. Prior to vulcanization, the steel components are treated with a special coating to ensure better rubber adhesion.
A rubber track is not manufactured in a single operation but rather in a segmented manner. Depending on the track's length, it must pass through the mold two to four times to achieve its final shape.
