The tire ring cutter or side wall cutter is a machine used in the process of rubber and tire recycling. It is designed to cut the tire sidewalls or the tire beads from the whole tire, enabling the tire to be processed further for recycling.
The machine is made up of a circular blade that is used to cut the tire sidewall or bead off the tire. The tire is placed on the machine's platform, and the blade is moved over the tire's sidewall, cutting through the rubber to remove it from the tire.
Once the sidewall or bead is removed, the tire can be shredded, granulated, or processed in another way to create a rubber crumb, which can be used in a variety of applications, including playground surfaces, sports fields, and rubberized asphalt.
The tire ring cutter or side wall cutter is an essential component in the rubber and tire recycling process, as it helps to remove valuable material from the tire, which can be repurposed for new applications. This helps to reduce waste and conserve resources, making it an environmentally friendly solution for managing end-of-life tires.
