AI summary

A fully-automatic production line and an automatic production method for rubber sealing rings. The fully-automatic production line includes a ring forming area, a molded vulcanization area, a flash removal area, a two-stage vulcanization area, an online detection area, a packaging and labeling area, and a control room. An automatic production line for rubber sealing rings involves the steps of loading and transferring, molded vulcanization, flash removal, second-stage vulcanization, packaging and labeling, and the like. The fully-automatic production line solves the technical problems in the prior art that the production of rubber sealing rings fails to adopt the molded vulcanization process, and meanwhile the specifications of the produced rubber sealing rings are single.
