MÉTODO PARA CONTROLAR UM PROCESSO DE FABRICAÇÃO DE COMPONENTES DE UM PNEU PARA RODAS DE VEÍCULO, E, APARELHO PARA DEPOSITAR PELO MENOS UM ELEMENTO ALONGADO SOBRE UM SUPORTE DE CONFORMAÇÃO EM UM PROCESSO DE FABRICAÇÃO DE COMPONENTES DE UM PNEU PARA RODAS DE VEÍCULO

摘要

A method for controlling a manufacturing process of components of a tyre for vehicle wheels, wherein at least one elongated element fed by a dispensing member is distributed onto a forming support by means of at least one pressing member acting on the at least one elongated element along a pressing direction. The method includes the steps of substantially continuously detecting the value of a characteristic quantity indicative of the displacement of the at least one pressing member along the pressing direction, comparing the detected value of the characteristic quantity with a threshold value and generating a warning signal when the detected value of the characteristic quantity exceeds the threshold value. Such a control method allows the presence of possible deposition anomalies to be identified right from the deposition step of the elongated elements on the forming support so as to ensure ever higher quality levels in tyres manufactured through continuous processes.
