Zusammenfassung:An apparatus for forming a reinforced rubber component is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a support frame (630); a rotatable drum (610) mounted upon the support frame (630); a rubber strip forming apparatus (100) mounted in proximity to the rotatable drum (610) for applying a rubber strip onto the rotatable drum (610); and a reinforcement applier apparatus (500) for applying a reinforcement onto the rotatable drum (610). Also, method of forming a reinforced rubber component is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing a rotatable drum (610); applying a rubber strip onto the rotatable drum (610) to form a first rubber layer (810) in a first direction; applying a reinforcement over the first rubber layer (820) in a second direction opposite to the first direction to form a first reinforcement layer (820); and applying a rubber strip over the first reinforcement layer (820).
