Abstract

A vacuum forming apparatus and process for its use in forming a transport tire from an elastomeric material that includes a mold having a cavity or annular area wherein a transport tire core (75) of plies, belt and beads is laid-up on a mandrel located within the mold. The mold receives a cover (89) fitted in sealing engagement over the mold top (91) and a cylindrical canister (95) is fitted through the center of which cover (89) and the mold center that is open at a top end (105) to receive a pour of an elastomeric material mixture and includes a needle valve (100) in its lower end that exhausts into one end of the mold annular area. Th cylindrical canister (95) includes a port (125) for connection to a deep vacuum source and the cover includes a port (97) that is for connection to a low level vacuum source.
