Rubber Powder Production Line
Product Description:
The Waste Tire Rubber Powder Production Line: Introduction to
Equipment
The production of waste tire rubber powder involves several stages,
with different equipment that play a significant role in each
stage. Here is a detailed breakdown of the equipment and its
function:
1. Pretreatment Equipment:
The pretreatment stage involves processing the waste tire to remove
the inner ring and steel wire found within the tire, and to shred
the tire. The following equipment is used in the pretreatment
stage:
- Tire Ring Cutting Machine: Used to cut off the inner ring of the tire, providing convenience
for subsequent processing.
- Tire Wire Drawing Machine: Extracts steel wire from the tire to reduce wear on equipment
during the subsequent crushing process and to allow for separate
steel wire recycling.
- Tire Shredder: Shreds the tire into larger rubber blocks before subsequent
processes. Tearing the tire into relatively uniform blocks of size,
preparing for subsequent crushing and grinding.
2. Crushing Equipment:
In the crushing stage, the shredded rubber blocks are further
crushed into smaller particles. The following equipment is used in
the crushing stage:
- Coarse Crusher: Used for the preliminary crushing of the shredded rubber blocks,
breaking them into rubber blocks of about tens of millimeters in
size.
- Medium Crusher: Further crushes the rubber blocks into smaller rubber particles,
usually about 6-12 mm.
3. Separation Equipment:
The separation stage involves separating impurities such as steel
wire and fibers from rubber particles. The following equipment is
used in the separation stage:
- Magnetic Separator: Used to separate steel wire from rubber particles by utilizing
magnetic force to absorb fine steel wires, ensuring the purity of
the rubber powder.
- Fiber Sorter: Separates fibers from rubber particles through a specific sorting
principle to improve the quality of rubber powder.
- Airflow Sorter: Creates air vortexes to separate rubber particles and fibers more
finely, producing rubber fine powder of different mesh sizes.
4. Grinding Equipment:
In the grinding stage, the crushed and separated rubber particles
are ground into rubber powder of different mesh sizes. The
following equipment is used in the grinding stage:
- Rubber Mill: Grinds the rubber particles into powder through the rotation and
extrusion of components such as grinding discs or grinding rollers.
The parameters of the mill can be adjusted to produce rubber
powders of different mesh sizes.
5. Screening Equipment:
The screening stage involves screening the ground rubber powder for
particle size requirements. The following equipment is used in the
screening stage:
- Vibrating Screen: Screens the rubber powder particles to meet the required particle
size. Rubber powder that does not meet the particle size
requirements will be returned to the grinder for re-grinding until
it reaches the specified particle size standard.
6. Packaging Equipment:
The packaging stage involves packaging the rubber powder for
storage, transportation, and sale. The following equipment is used
in the packaging stage:
- Fully Automatic Bagging Machine: Quantitatively bags the rubber powder according to the set weight
for easy storage, transportation, and sales.
During the operation of the waste tire rubber powder production
line, conveying equipment such as belt conveyors are also required
to connect various equipment to ensure the smooth transmission of
materials. The production line may also be equipped with auxiliary
facilities such as dust removal equipment, atomizing spray systems,
water cooling systems, etc., to ensure environmental protection and
safety.
Features:
The waste tire rubber powder production line generates rubber
powder as its product. Rubber powder has distinct characteristics
as listed below:
1. Particle Size Characteristics:
- Diverse Particle Sizes: The rubber powder can have varied particle sizes according to
different requirements, and the range is usually between 30-200
meshes. Finer particles can be utilized in fields such as rubber
products and fine chemicals, while coarser particles can be used in
building materials that don’t require high particle sizes.
- Uniform Particle Size: Advanced production lines and processes ensure a uniform particle
distribution. Uniformity is crucial for the stability and
performance of rubber powder in various applications. This
characteristic also facilitates efficient mixing with other
materials and enhances the quality of the final product.
2. Physical Performance Characteristics:
- Small Specific Gravity: Rubber powder has low density, which implies that products
manufactured with rubber powder can reduce their overall weight.
This attribute is beneficial for products such as rubber soles or
automobile tires where weight can affect their performance.
- Good Fluidity: Adequately processed rubber powder has excellent fluidity, making
transport, mixing, and other operations during production seamless.
This characteristic improves production efficacy.
- Special Surface Morphology: Rubber powder surface has burr-shaped structures that enhance
adhesion and bonding of the material with other colloids. This
feature also facilitates mixing with other materials and enables
the creation of high-performance composite materials.
3. Chemical Performance Characteristics:
- Complex Ingredients: Besides rubber, rubber powder can also possess additives, aging
products, etc. These elements affect the chemical properties of
rubber powder, such as vulcanization performance and aging potency.
Therefore, it is necessary to test and analyze the chemical
properties of rubber powder against specific applications
requirements.
- Modifiable: Rubber powder performance can be enhanced through modifiers or
specialized treatment methods that improve compatibility and
dispersibility.
4. Purity Characteristics:
- Thorough Separation: High-quality waste tire rubber powder production line usually
separates steel wire and fiber almost completely, guaranteeing high
purity of rubber powder. This characteristic results in
superior-quality rubber products and reduces defect rates.
- Low Impurity Content: The production process incorporates rigorous screening and
separation processes, which effectively remove dust, soil, or other
impurities, maintaining low impurity content levels.

The Output and Efficiency of Waste Tire Rubber Powder Production
Line The output and efficiency of the waste tire rubber powder
production line are influenced by various factors including
equipment type, scale, technical level, and production process. The
following are some of the common ranges of output and efficiency.
Small Production Line The small production line has an hourly output of approximately
4-6 tons and an annual output of about 1,500 tons if calculated
based on 300 working days per year. This type of production line
has a relatively low degree of automation, meaning it may require
more manual operation and intervention. Also, it is relatively weak
in equipment operation stability and continuous production
capacity, leading to low overall equipment efficiency.
Medium-Sized Production Line The annual processing capacity of a medium-sized waste tire rubber
powder production line is usually around 3,000-5,000 tons.
Nonetheless, the specific output will also be influenced by factors
such as equipment operation time, raw material quality, and
equipment maintenance. The equipment configuration of the
medium-sized production line is more complete, and the degree of
automation has been enhanced. As such, the material transportation,
crushing, screening, and other production process links can be
carried out more smoothly, leading to higher production efficiency.
Medium-sized production lines can achieve continuous production,
and they have a longer effective working time, thus improving
overall production efficiency.
Large Production Lines Large-scale waste tire rubber powder production lines can process
tens of thousands of tons annually. For example, some large
production lines can process up to 20,000 tons per year, and the
annual output of rubber powder can reach more than 15,000 tons.
Large production lines generally use advanced technology and
equipment, have a high degree of automation, and possess strong
collaborative working ability of various links in the production
process, thus, achieving efficient and stable production.
Additionally, these lines have advantages in energy utilization,
equipment maintenance, and can reduce production costs to enhance
production efficiency.
