The MACHINE WORKS Division

IGTT’s Machine Works Division concentrates mainly on the production of tyre moulds and bladders.

Our tyre moulds range form moulds for motorcycle tyres to large moulds for farming machinery tyres and include moulds for passenger vehicle tyres with complicated snow tread patterns.

As far as design is concerned, our moulds are both two-piece and segmented with aluminium inserts (aluminium-cast or directly milled segments) or tread rings.

For segmented moulds Machine Works also produces containers with segment holders.
