The recycling of giant tires(OTR tires) is a relatively difficult task because the large OTR tires are as big as a room and weigh a total of 4 about tons, which cannot be processed by a double shaft shredder. Every year, mines also produce a large number of waste OTR tires.

We have more advanced and simpler solutions for the recycling and processing of OTR giant tires.

The following is the processing method of Kal Tire Mining Tire Group, an Australian giant tire recycling company.

First, use a truck to transport the giant tires to the recycling site.

Then, use hydraulic scissors to cut the giant tire into large pieces.

Then, these large blocks are transported by conveyor belt into the batch model waste tire pyrolysis machine. The tire blocks will stay in the reactor about 8-10 hours, then they will be converted into pyrolysis oil and carbon char. The steel will be left in the reactor when the production is finished.

Then use a hooker to pull the steel out.

Here is our processing method:

First, the giant OTR tires are cut into three parts: one tread and two sidewalls. 

Then they are made into rubber blocks. 

There are 2 cutters. The Tread cutter and Side wall cutter. 

Fist cut the tread and side wall into tire strip with tread cutter and side wall cutter. Then shred the tire strip to tire blocks. The size of tire block is about 12 cm long.

After obtaining the rubber blocks, the tire blocks goes into crusher. they are ground into rubber powder. During this process, the steel wire is also removed out.

Then the rubber powder is sent to our screw running model continuous model pyrolysis machine for tires to be transformed into oil and carbon black. The obtained carbon black can also be used to manufacture new OTR giant tires.
