The Tire Strip and Block Cutter Machine can efficiently cut whole tires into uniform 5mm blocks, producing output sizes ranging from 50–80mm. The machine handles tires with diameters up to 1200mm and operates at a capacity of 20–30 pieces per hour, providing consistent feedstock for downstream processes such as shredding, rubber powder production, or tire pyrolysis.
Widely used in waste tire recycling plants, rubber powder production lines, and tire pyrolysis projects, this machine offers easy operation, reliable safety, and significant labor savings. Its ability to pre-cut tires into blocks improves overall recycling efficiency, extends the service life of downstream machines, and provides a cost-effective solution for environmentally friendly tire processing.
How does the tyre rubber block cutting machine work?
The Tire Strip and Block Cutter Machine works by mechanically cutting whole tires into smaller, manageable pieces for recycling or processing. Here’s a clear step-by-step overview of its operation.
- Feeding the Tires: Whole tires are first loaded into the machine manually. Tires up to 1200 mm in diameter can typically be handled.
- Initial Cutting (Stripping): The machine uses high-strength rotating blades to cut the tire into strips. The steel wires and rubber are simultaneously sliced, producing uniform tire strips.
- Block Cutting: The tire strips are further processed by the machine’s secondary blade system, which cuts them into small blocks, usually around 50–80 mm in size. This ensures that the output is suitable for shredders, rubber powder machines, or pyrolysis units.
- Output Collection: The cut tire blocks drop into a collection area or conveyor, ready for the next stage in the recycling process.
Applications of cut tire strips and blocks
After being processed by a tire strip and block cutter machine, waste tires are transformed into uniform strips or blocks that serve as ideal raw materials for multiple recycling applications.
These cut tire pieces are widely used as feedstock for tire shredders and rubber granulators to produce rubber granules or fine rubber powder for rubber products, sports surfaces, and paving materials. They are also commonly used in tire pyrolysis projects, where evenly sized tire blocks ensure stable feeding, higher oil yield, and safer operation.
In addition, pre-cut tire blocks reduce energy consumption and equipment wear in downstream processes, improving overall efficiency and profitability across the waste tire recycling chain.
Tire strip cutting machine benefits
- Efficient Pre-Processing – Cuts whole tires into uniform strips quickly, making downstream shredding or granulation more efficient.
- Reduces Equipment Wear – By pre-cutting tires, it lowers the load on shredders, grinders, and pyrolysis equipment, extending their service life.
- Handles Steel-Belted Tires – Equipped with high-strength blades capable of cutting tires with steel wires safely and effectively.
- Consistent Output Size – Produces uniform tire strips, ensuring smooth operation in subsequent processing steps and improving overall product quality.
- Labor and Time Savings – Automated operation saves labor costs and processing time.
- Enhanced Safety – Built-in safety features protect operators during cutting, minimizing accidents compared to manual tire cutting.
- Versatile Application – Suitable for car tires, truck tires, and other waste tires, and can be integrated into recycling plants, rubber powder production lines, or tire pyrolysis systems.
- Cost-Effective Solution – Compact design, low maintenance, and high efficiency make it a practical investment for tire recycling projects.
