Abstract: The method is related to automatically and successively laying elastomeric elements using a facility for manufacturing tire blanks. The facility includes a drum for manufacturing tire blanks and at least one collaborative robotized arm equipped with at least one effector. A stage of laying an elastomeric element includes a predetermined sequence of step. The sequence comprises the steps of grasping and drawing the elastomeric element towards the drum using said arm. The automatic and successive laying of elastomeric elements includes instructions which can be executed by the processor of a control unit in order to implement. The sequence includes a stage of automatic performance of a step according to said sequence. The sequence also includes a stage of interruption of said sequence. The sequence further includes a stage of manual performance of the interrupted step or the next step according to said sequence.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a production installation (100) that realizes production of a semi-finished product (50) having at least one unvulcanized elastomeric layer (50a) and a cover layer (50b) assembled therewith. The invention is also directed to a method for producing a semi-finished product (50) for use in tire production.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a posing assembly (30) that effects transfer and posing of a semifinished product (100) that is destined for inclusion in a tire. The invention is also directed to a tire production system (10) for transferring and posing a semi-finished product (100) that is destined for inclusion in a tire, which system includes the disclosed posing assembly. A method is provided for transferring and posing a semi-finished product (100) upon a rotating forming drum (40) having a circumferential forming surface (40a) during a product posing cycle, which method includes a step of providing a tire production system as disclosed.
