Compound batches, mould cavities and bonded inserts on one record.
Hold customer releases, Banbury mixes, preform weights, mould cavities, press cures, grit blasting, cover cement and peel tests in one system. Every part lot keeps its rheometer check, its mould and its cure, so a returned bush or engine mount traces to one press run. Planners, mixers, press operators and inspectors share one record. Nothing sits on a tray tag.
- Part list, moulds and cavity layouts entered from your own drawings and toolroom cards, with nothing renamed for the software
- Open releases, compound stock and customer balances migrated before the first press run is booked
- Label and inspection report layouts matched to each buyer’s own format and part number style
Plan press runs against customer releases and record each mix, rheometer cure curve, preform weight, cavity shot count and peel test from one GullySystem build. Every bush or seal lot keeps its compound batch, mould and cure, and Shore A results and labels print from the same record.
What goes wrong before the software.
How the work flows through it, step by step.
- 1
Schedule and order
A customer release is entered or imported by part number and week, and a revision replaces the earlier figures while keeping the date of change. The planner sees exactly what moved since Friday.
- 2
Run planning
The planner assigns each part to a mould and press, checks compound and insert stock, and sets the changeover order by mould size so heavy platen changes sit together. Shortfalls show before booking.
- 3
Mixing and preforms
Compound batches are released after their Mooney viscosity and rheometer cure check. Preforms are cut, weighed against the part target and linked to the batch, so each strip keeps its number to the press.
- 4
Insert preparation
For bonded parts, steel inserts are grit blasted, coated with primer and cover cement, and dried, and the steps, oven times and operator are recorded against the insert lot. Nothing reaches the press unrecorded.
- 5
Press and trim
Shots are cured in the press, counted and removed, then parts are trimmed or cryogenically deflashed and rejects are logged by cavity. Cure time and platen temperature stay with the run.
- 6
Inspect and ship
Shore A hardness, gauge and bond peel checks are entered at the bench, then passed lots are labelled, boxed and dispatched against the schedule with the paperwork coming from the same record. No retyping.
What is inside.
Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.
The business modules it is built from.
Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.
- Order Management
Monthly releases and revisions are held by part and week, so the planner sees quantities that changed after the press run was already set.
- Batch and Serial Tracking
Each mixed batch is numbered and its preforms and press runs carry that number onto the finished part lot and its label.
- Production Planning
Runs are planned by mould and press from the release, with changeover order and compound stock checked before the platen is booked.
- Quality Control
Shore A, gauge and visual results are compared with the part limits, and a failing lot is held until a supervisor decides.
- Job Work Management
Parts or inserts sent for plating or bonding are listed with quantities out, and returns are booked against the same vendor job.
- Bill of Materials
A part lists its compound grade, steel insert, cover cement and packing, so planners know material needs before the run is set.
- Fixed Asset Register
Moulds are held as assets with cavity maps, shot counts, repairs and polishing, so toolroom work follows usage and not complaints.
How we would put it in.
Setup, data migration, integrations and anything built on top.
One system, each person sees their part.
For owners
See press hours, mould condition, schedule shortfalls, rejects by part and customer balances, and judge which compound or tool is costing money.
For planners
Convert releases into runs, watch compound and insert stock, and plan changeovers by mould and platen size so that late releases are caught before a press sits idle.
For mixing and preform staff
Release batches after the rheometer check, cut preforms to target weight, and link both to the run, so that strips keep their batch number from the mill to the press. No loose trays.
For press operators and trimmers
Record shots and rejects at the press, and check the cavity map and any blocked cavities before each run starts. Flash is logged by cavity as it appears.
For inspectors and dispatch
Enter Shore A, gauge and peel results, then release the lot, print its label and ship it. A failing lot stays on hold with the reason shown, so it cannot ship by mistake.
The numbers the owner asks for.
- Release against production by part and week, with the shortfall
- Compound batches and the parts made from each
- Shots and rejects by mould and cavity
- Peel and pull results by insert lot, with failure mode
- Preform weight drift by run
- Plating and post-cure quantities out and returned
- Customer returns by part and compound batch
Who this is built for.
- Moulders of gaskets, seals, diaphragms, grommets and O-rings in EPDM, nitrile, silicone or fluoroelastomer who must name the batch behind a returned part
- Makers of rubber-to-metal bonded bushes and engine mounts
- Compression and transfer press shops serving machine builders, pump makers and railway suppliers that ask for a batch number on every carton label
- Plants that run their own Banbury or open mill, cut preforms from the slab and need every strip to carry its batch number to the press
- Moulders who send parts out for plating or post-cure
When it is not the right choice.
- A small shop that moulds a few custom pieces on one press can run on a job sheet and a calendar, and will find this heavier than it needs.
- Plants that mainly make hose or belting will find Rubber Hose Manufacturer Management Software or Conveyor Belt Manufacturer Management Software closer.

Questions owners ask before a demo.
Can it load a monthly release?
Yes. The customer’s sheet is mapped once and later releases are imported, and a revision replaces the old quantity while keeping the date of change. Nothing is retyped from the email.
How does it link parts to compound batches?
The mixed batch is selected when a press run is opened, and every part lot made in that run shows the batch on its record and label. A recall searches by batch number.
Does it keep bond test results?
Yes. Peel or pull results, the failure mode and the insert lot are saved with the run that used it. A bush returned for separation can be matched to its blasting and cement records.
Can one cavity be blocked?
Yes. The toolroom can block a mould or a single cavity with a reason, and the planner cannot book it until it is released. The press operator sees the block on the cavity map as well.
How are outside processes handled?
A vendor job lists the parts sent, the process and the expected return, and quantities back are booked against it. Anything short stays open until someone closes it with a reason.
Can it print inspection reports?
Yes. Shore A hardness, dimensions and peel results print in a layout agreed with each customer, so the report is not retyped from a bench sheet.
Does it need machine connections?
No. Operators enter shots and times at the press or the bench. Wiring a shot counter into a press can be quoted later as its own job, apart from the first build.
Is there a demo on our own parts?
Yes. We start by building a demo around a handful of your part numbers, moulds and one compound grade, and cost follows in a written proposal with setup and monthly lines kept apart.
How does stock work for finished parts?
Finished lots are booked into stock after release, by part and rack location. Dispatch reduces them against the order. A lot on hold cannot be picked for a truck.
Can records be exported?
Yes. Press runs, compound batches and inspection results can be saved to a file in a layout you choose early, so that the accountant and the buyer’s auditor both get what they need.
