Tire shredder is a kind of mechanical equipment used to crush waste tires, and its working principle mainly involves the following steps:
1. Feeding. First, the waste tires pass through the conveyor belt into the feed port of the tire shredder. At the inlet, the tires are initially torn into larger pieces to facilitate subsequent crushing. This step is the initial stage of the tire shredder and prepares it for the subsequent crushing process.
Second, crushing. Next, the larger tire blocks are gradually broken into small pieces or pieces by repeated impact and shearing action by multiple knives inside the crusher. These knives are usually made of high-strength steel and have a sharp edge and a special knife design that is able to shred tires efficiently. At the same time, the structure of the crusher has also been specially designed to ensure the efficiency and safety of the crushing process.
3. Screening and separation.
In order to obtain a pure crushed product, tire shredders are usually equipped with screening and separating devices. These units are able to sort shredded tire fragments by size, mass, and composition. Different sizes of debris can be used for different purposes, e.g. larger debris can be used for the production of recycled rubber, smaller debris can be used for fuel or landfill, etc.
4. Dust removal and environmental protection treatment.
In the process of tire crushing, a large amount of dust and harmful gases will be generated, so the tire crusher needs to be equipped with dust removal and environmental protection treatment devices. These units are able to collect dust and harmful gases generated during the crushing process and treat them to meet emission standards to reduce their environmental impact. Common dust collection equipment includes bag filters and electrostatic precipitators.
5. Discharging and collection.
Finally, the tire fragments that have been crushed, screened, separated and dedusted are conveyed to the discharge port to complete the entire tire crushing process. These debris can be collected and disposed of according to different uses to realize the resource utilization of waste tires.
In short, the working principle of tire crusher involves multiple links such as feeding, crushing, screening and separation, dust removal and environmental protection treatment, as well as discharging and collection. Through the treatment of these links, waste tires can be efficiently shredded into small pieces or fragments, and classified and utilized according to different uses, so as to achieve the purpose of resource recycling and environmental protection.
