A customer from India recently contacted us about our fiber separator machine after learning that it can be used to separate nylon fiber from recycled rubber powder. The customer already has a rubber powder production line in India and wanted to add a fiber separation process to improve the quality of the finished rubber powder. After checking the customer’s actual material and discussing the required conveying method, we prepared a customized machine for this project.
An Existing Rubber Powder Production Line
The customer is already engaged in rubber powder production and has a complete processing system in India. During their production process, the rubber powder still contains nylon fiber after grinding and screening.
Since the customer wanted to further separate the fiber from the rubber powder, they were looking for a suitable machine that could be connected with their existing equipment.
Instead of simply recommending a standard model, we first asked the customer to provide information about the actual material. The customer showed us their rubber powder containing nylon fiber, allowing our technical team to understand the material condition before confirming the equipment solution.
Testing the Customer’s Own Rubber Powder
Material characteristics can vary between different rubber recycling projects. The size of the rubber powder, fiber content, and previous processing methods can all affect the separation process.
For this reason, we support customers in sending their own raw materials to our factory for testing.
After receiving the material, our technicians can run the fiber separator machine and record the separation results for the customer. This allows the customer to check the actual effect before the machine is manufactured.
For this Indian project, the customer’s material was evaluated according to their rubber powder and nylon fiber separation requirements.
A Different Feeding Method for This Project
One of the main points discussed during the project was material conveying.
Normally, our fiber separator machine uses a screw conveyor to transport rubber powder into the machine. However, the Indian customer wanted to use a blower and pipeline to move the material instead.
The customer’s requirement was related to the layout and conveying method of their existing production line. Therefore, our engineers adjusted the equipment configuration rather than using the standard screw conveyor arrangement.
The customized conveying system includes a blower, pipeline, cyclone separator, and rubber pipe.
This arrangement allows the customer to connect the fiber separator machine with their existing rubber powder processing system according to their preferred material conveying method.
Customized Fiber Separator Machine Specifications
Based on the customer’s production requirements, the machine was manufactured with a capacity of 1,500 kg/h.
The main specifications are:
| Especificación | Detalles |
| Máquina | Fiber Separator Machine |
| Aplicación | Rubber powder and nylon fiber separation |
| Capacidad | 1,500 kg/h |
| Motor | 5.5 + 3 kW |
| Power Supply | 380V, 50Hz, 3 Phase |
| Tamaño de la Máquina | 1.4 × 1.4 × 3.5 m |
| Peso | 1,500 kg |
| Conveying Method | Blower + pipeline + cyclone separator + rubber pipe |
The equipment is designed to separate nylon fiber from rubber powder after the tire recycling and grinding process.
Machine Completed and Ready for Shipment
The customized fiber separator machine has now been manufactured. After the production and inspection stages were completed, the machine was prepared for container loading and transportation.
The equipment will be sent to the customer’s location in India and integrated into their existing rubber powder production process.
This project also demonstrates that the conveying system of a fiber separation machine does not always have to follow the standard configuration. When a customer has specific requirements for their production line, we can adjust the equipment according to the actual working conditions.
Fiber Separation for Rubber Powder Production
For rubber recycling plants that produce rubber powder containing nylon fiber, a fiber separator machine can be added after the grinding process to separate the remaining fiber from the rubber powder.
For customers with special material characteristics or existing production lines, we can also arrange raw material testing and discuss customized conveying solutions.
If you are planning to separate nylon fiber from rubber powder, you can send us your material information and production requirements. We can evaluate the material and provide a suitable Fiber Separator Machine configuration for your project.
