Abstract

A bead forming system for forming a tire bead comprises: a housing (110); a first bead forming part (102) configured to facilitate the formation of a tire bead; and a base part (118) fixed to the first bead forming part, wherein the first bead forming part comprises a bead receiving surface rotatable with respect to the base part. The base part may be adjusted so that the first bead forming part (102) moves from a first position to a second position. The first position is on a first side of the housing, and the second position is on a second side of the housing. A second bead forming part (104) is positioned at the second position when the first bead forming part is positioned at the first position, and the second bead forming part is positioned at the first position when the first bead forming part is positioned at the second position.
