Get inspired by other reinforced rubber product manuafcturers
The motivations from manufacturers of reinforced rubber products to work with TANIQ and their experiences about the cooperation are very valuable and give us the insight how we can improve these aspects in future projects. We believe that only through close cooperation and shared goals between the parties involved, the right synergy can be created to make these developments successful.
“I needed a large foldable bellow that was not available in the market. TANIQ’s technology enables the design and manufacturing of such products. TANIQ’s unconventional project approach was new to me, so I was not sure what to expect. However their professional working attitude turned out to deliver great results. Relevant information for decision making was delivered on time and the final result entirely met my needs.”
Gösta Johnsson, Director Företagsutveckling G. Johnsson AB.
“At Trelleborg we always pride ourselves on continuously improving the quality and consistency of our fiber-reinforced infrastructure products. In a single project, Trelleborg and TANIQ have completely overhauled a production concept. TANIQ’s method simply is putting bright minds of both parties and groundbreaking technology together in a creative, but disciplined process. This has lead to an exciting and fast-pace innovation.”
Peter Stello, Director Trelleborg PA-Infrastructure.
Trelleborg Infrastructure is a global developer and manufacturer of engineered rubber solutions for several infrastructure markets, including civil engineering, dredging and energy. The company is the global market leader for sealing systems for tunnels. Its product range also includes antivibration and noise isolation bearings as well as dredging hoses. All products are designed and manufactured in the company’s facilities in Ridderkerk (its head quarters) and Ede in the Netherlands, and in Qingdao, China.
“For us the main objectives of the development with TANIQ are that ContiTech is always looking for alternatives to current serial productions that are promising to achieve a highly engineered process. TANIQ’s technology offers opportunities for FEA-supported solutions which can enhance the performance of the product, improve the production process and can minimise cost and labour. The main target with this technology is the 'online' production of green hoses using special design- and FEA-software which is coupled to a fully automated production process. ContiTech has many years of experience and expertise on hose making, while TANIQ is specialized in optimal fibre reinforcement. Now together we can combine our expertises to develop new products/production processes. One of the advantages of working with TANIQ is that they are eager to work fast and are able to make quick decisions.”
