One of Anderson's latest patents is the Automatic Sidewall Servicer. This innovative device is designed to supply two cut-to-length strips of sidewall simultaneously to a tire building drum without the need for handling by the tire builder. This automation eliminates the risk of stretching or distorting the sidewalls, which can occur during manual handling. The servicer features twin cassettes that hold two spools of spirally wound sidewall, separated by a rigid, U-shaped protective liner. It includes an indexing table that moves the twin cassettes through various positions, ensuring a seamless operation. A robotic grabber engages the leading edges of the liners, facilitating their movement to the rear of the servicer. The operator then threads the liners onto a take-up cassette and transports the sidewall to a discharge tray. This tray is equipped with a cutting mechanism and alignment device, ensuring the cut sidewall is accurately placed onto the unvulcanized tire carcass.
