Tire Recycling Plant, installation and start-up were completed in the first months of 2018, receiving both car and truck tires, with the goal of producing high-quality rubber chips to be delivered to cement plants and incinerators for energy production.
The Tire Recycling Plant implements a production cycle capable of obtaining, from post-consumer tires, rubber chips of various sizes, and at the same time, separating other components such as steel and textile fibers.
The process is essentially mechanical and takes place through several stages of transformation:
Milling Phase - Input Productivity 2.5 T/h
Thanks to a rubber conveyor belt, the tires are fed into a TR2A450/13 Twin-Shaft Shredder with 75 mm blades. Here, the tires undergo a first volumetric reduction, where the material is brought to a particle size of 80 mm. To facilitate the work of the shredder and increase production, a radial pusher is applied, which pushes the tires against the blades of the machine.
Separation Phase - Margherita Screen
Next, the shredded tires (called rubber chips) are fed onto a rubber conveyor belt on a VKG10 Margherita Screen, which returns oversized pieces back to the shredder and the screened material goes to the second milling phase.
