Coffee machine rubber parts-needle plate——SKY Rubber
The coffee machine needle plate is a key component in the extraction system of high-end coffee machines (especially espresso machines), usually located below the brewing head or in the extraction channel. It is mostly a disc-shaped structure made of metal with fine needle-like protrusions or holes on the surface. Its core function is to evenly disperse the high-pressure water flow during coffee extraction to prevent the water flow from concentrating on the powder cake and causing uneven extraction. At the same time, the needle-like structure moderately disturbs the coffee powder layer to promote more complete dissolution and release of coffee ingredients, thereby improving the extraction efficiency and flavor balance of espresso, making the coffee taste mellower and richer in layers.
In response to customer feedback on problems such as water leakage in the coffee machine needle plate, debonding of rubber and aluminum parts, and seal failure, the SKY technical team conducted in-depth research and development and innovatively launched an integrated molding process for aluminum needle plates . This technology breaks through the traditional manufacturing model of the industry. Through precision molding and molecular-level bonding technology, the aluminum parts and rubber layers are integrated into a high-strength whole, eliminating the risk of debonding from the root, improving sealing performance by more than 40%, and extending the service life by more than 2 times . At present, this process has won a number of national patent certifications and has become a new manufacturing benchmark in the industry. In addition, this technology also simplifies the needle plate production process, helps customers reduce the rubber bonding process, and significantly improves product capacity and production efficiency by 30% .
