Abstract
A hydraulic heating and vulcanization press includes a lower tire mold which is supported by a press stand and cooperates with an upper tire mold to define a mold in which a raw tire is inserted for subsequent vulcanization. In order to keep the lower and upper mold in a precisely centrally aligned position to each other, a plurality of centering elements are interposed between the press stand and the lower tire mold so as to allow a radial movement between the lower mold and the press stand in order to maintain a centrally aligned arrangement.
