High-Efficiency Tire Strip Cutter for Rubber Recycling
After the sidewalls and steel beads are removed by a tire sidewall cutter, the remaining tire tread is still too large and cumbersome for direct shredding. Processing these tough, wide treads is a major bottleneck. Our tire strip cutter is the specialized solution, engineered to automatically and continuously slice these treads into uniform strips, paving the way for efficient downstream processing. This machine is a crucial type of rubber strip cutter, purpose-built for the demands of tire recycling.
From Tire Treads to Shredder-Ready Strips
The primary role of the tire strip cutting machine is to prepare the tire material for the shredder or granulator. By converting whole treads into manageable strips, you unlock significant operational benefits:
- Increased Shredder Efficiency: Uniform rubber strips are fed more easily into shredders, preventing jams and increasing overall throughput. The shredder can work faster and more consistently.
- Reduced Equipment Strain: Pre-cutting the material into strips reduces the load on your primary shredder’s motors and blades, extending its lifespan and lowering maintenance costs.
- Consistent Final Product: A consistent input material (strips) leads to a more uniform output of rubber granules, improving the quality and value of your final product.
Key Features of Our Rubber Strip Cutter
- Dual High-Speed Cutting Discs: Equipped with two hardened alloy steel disc blades that work in tandem to pull and cut the tire tread simultaneously, ensuring a fast and clean cutting process.
- Adjustable Strip Width: Easily adjust the distance between the cutting discs to produce rubber strips of varying widths (e.g., 3-5 cm), giving you full control over the material size for your specific shredder.
- Powerful & Reliable Motor: A robust motor provides consistent torque to handle even the toughest steel-belted truck tire treads without slowing down, ensuring reliable continuous operation.
- Automated Feeding Mechanism: A specialized hook and guide system automatically pulls the tire tread through the blades, minimizing the need for manual labor and enhancing operator safety.
How It Works: The Automated Cutting Process
Our tyre strip cutting machine simplifies the entire process into a seamless, automated workflow:
- Feed the Tread: The operator simply feeds the beginning of the debeaded tire tread into the machine’s guide slot.
- Automatic Pulling: The machine’s integrated hook system grips the rubber and automatically pulls the entire tread loop through the cutting unit.
- Continuous Cutting: As the tread is pulled through, the two high-speed rotating disc blades slice it into a long, continuous rubber strip of a pre-set width. The process continues until the entire tread is processed.
