    摘要: One or more components of elastomer material in a tyre are formed by dispensing elastomer material through a nozzle of an extruder to form a continuous elongated element of flattened section that is laid in the form of coils disposed close to each other on a laying surface carried by a support element, while said support element is driven in rotation and suitably moved adjacent to a die of the nozzle. The nozzle is drivable in rotation by an actuator so as to modify orientation of the nozzle itself during formation of the tyre component.

    摘要: During manufacture of a tyre for motor vehicles, one or more structural elements of elastomeric material, such as a tread band provided with a respective under-layer, are manufactured by laying a continuous elongated element on the carcass structure or other forming support, which elongated element is longitudinally divided into a first and second mutually-coupled portions that are obtained through extrusion of two different elastomeric materials coming from respective extruders leading to a common extrusion die. Laying of the coils takes place in such a manner that the first and second materials form a first layer and a second layer overlapping the first layer, respectively.
