More Information
Summary:The invention is related to a continuous material ply for use in the manufacturing in vehicle tires, a method of manufacturing and a system for manufacturing such a continuous ply. The ply is made by joining and comprises joining multiple plies and comprises a first splice edge (221) of a first ply (211); a second splice edge (222) of a second ply (212); a first gum strip (244) wrapped around the first splice edge such that the first gum strip forms a U-shaped structure in section so that the first gum strip extends from a first planar side of the first ply over the first splice edge to a second opposite planar side of the first ply; a second gum strip (244) wrapped around the second splice edge such that the second gum strip forms a equivalent U-shaped structure.
