Tire splitter

The tire splitter is used to cut whole waste tires(<1400mm) into two equal pieces before shredding. It improves processing efficiency, reduces shredder load, and is widely used in tire recycling lines.

Shuliy tire splitter (also called tire half cutting machine) is newly designed to cut a whole tire into two pieces from the tire middle, with a tire diameter of <1400mm and an output of 2-3pcs/min. It serves as a crucial pre-processing device in tire recycling lines. Featuring powerful cutting force and a stable structure, this equipment is particularly suited for thick-treaded truck tires containing steel belts.

Key advantages of tire half cutting machine

  • High cutting efficiency with a processing capacity of 2–3 tyres per minute
  • Cut waste tires(with a size of <1400mm) in half in one go, resulting in a clean cut that facilitates subsequent shredding
  • Effectively reduce shredder load and blade wear
  • Simple operation, minimizing manual labor intensity
  • Compact design suitable for continuous operation

Technical parameters of tire splitter machine

  • Function: Cut whole tyres into 2 pieces
  • Tire diameter: <1400mm
  • Capacity: 2–3 pcs/min
  • Power: 4kW + 3kW
  • Voltage: 380V / 50Hz

Working principle of tire splitting machine

During operation, secure the entire tire within the equipment’s working area. Upon startup, the power system drives the cutting mechanism to commence cutting from the center of the tire bead.

Through a stable mechanical structure and cutting system, the tire is evenly divided into two halves in a single operation. The cutting process is smooth and safe, suitable for continuous operation.

Cut tires are more easily fed into the tire shredder or slicer, thereby enhancing the operational efficiency of downstream equipment.

Why use a tire half cutting machine in tire recycling?

During tire recycling, feeding whole tires directly into shredding equipment can lead to excessive load, high energy consumption, and severe equipment wear. Using a tire splitter machine for pre-processing can:

  • Reduce operational pressure on the tire shredding machine
  • Enhance operational stability of the entire rubber powder recycling line
  • Lower overall energy consumption and maintenance costs
  • Improve production efficiency and safety

Therefore, Shuliy tyre splitter has become indispensable equipment in professional tire recycling projects.
