Design and Engineering

Design and engineering of industrial rubber parts and linings

At Élastomont, we transform your industrial challenges into custom, durable, and high-performance elastomer solutions. With over 35 years of expertise, we support our clients from initial design to production, offering technical designs adapted to the most demanding mechanical, chemical, and operational constraints.

Our Custom Design Services

Our team offers a complete industrial design and engineering service, including:

  • In-depth analysis of your needs and operational constraints
  • Selection of the optimal elastomer: natural rubber, chlorobutyl, bromobutyl, Linatex, and specialized compounds, etc.
  • Design and engineering of custom parts and linings
  • Optimization of manufacturing costs through strategic advice
  • Technical support at every stage of development

A Collaborative Approach Focused on Your Needs

Our philosophy is based on support throughout the development process, intervening at strategic moments to maximize efficiency and limit costs. We don't just reproduce your ideas: we analyze your application from every angle to propose the most effective and economical solution.

  • Application Analysis: Study of mechanical constraints (abrasion, impact, flexion), chemical constraints (pH, temperature, aggressive products), and operational constraints (rate, lifespan, maintenance).
  • Material Selection: Precise choice of the most suitable rubber for your project, according to the industrial application.
  • Technical Design: Precise dimensioning of parts, choice of thickness and hardness (Shore A), fixing and assembly method, detailed technical documentation.
  • Cost Optimization: Simplification of complex designs, identification of more economical manufacturing solutions, reduction of waste and production times.

Typical Applications

Our design solutions address numerous industrial challenges:

  • Protection against abrasion and wear: Chute and ore pass linings, conveyor and elevator shielding, mill and cyclone linings
  • Chemical resistance and corrosion: Tanks and vessels for acids, bases, and solvents, chemical pipes and piping, treatment and settling basins
  • Sealing and containment: Seals, membranes, basin linings, and environmental containment systems
  • Damping and insulation: Anti-vibration pads and supports, acoustic insulators, shock protection

FAQ - Design and Engineering

Not at all. We can work from a simple sketch, a physical sample (even damaged), or a description of your constraints. Our team can create the necessary technical drawings and 3D models for you.
Project costs depend on complexity. Basic design adjustments are often included in the manufacturing quote. For extensive R&D or complete system design, we provide a separate, transparent estimate before starting.
Timelines vary by project scope. A simple part modification can be designed in a few days, while a complete system overhaul may take a few weeks. We always strive to align with your production deadlines.
Absolutely. This is our core expertise. We analyze the failure mode of the current part (wear, tearing, chemical attack) and re-engineer it—changing the material, geometry, or reinforcement—to maximize its lifespan.
This is discussed on a project-by-project basis. Generally, if you commission a custom design specific to your equipment, the technical plans belong to you upon completion of the project.
Yes. We frequently partner with engineering firms to provide specialized expertise in rubber chemistry, molding constraints, and abrasion resistance, ensuring their overall design is viable.
