Working Process of the waste tire recycling plant
Complete semi-automated scrap tire recycling plant process: tire sidewall cutter→tire strip cutter→tire block cutter→tire steel wire separator→tire grinder and magnetic separators→fiber separator
Pretreatment: The tire side wall cutter removes the tire bead embedded steel rims. Then the strip and block cutter cuts the tire sidewall into 3-5 cm wide strips and 5*5 cm blocks in turn.
Steel wire separation: The steel wire separator efficiently separates rubber from the bead wire for classified recycling. This machine is optional in the semi-automatic scrap tire recycling plant.
Grinding and screening: Through the process of the tire grinding machine and screens, it can output rubber powder in pre-set sizes.
Removing impurities: Multi-stage magnetic separators and the fiber separator are designed to remove magnetics and fibers. Finally can produce fine rubber powders with a purity of over 99%, which can be used in industrial manufacturing.
