Our tire cutting machine is an essential piece of equipment in the waste tire recycling process. It is mainly used to cut truck tires, car tires, and OTR tires into smaller sections, making them easier to process in tire shredders, crushers, or rubber powder production lines. At Shuliy Machinery, we provide standard tire cutter machines for ≤1200mm tires as well as heavy-duty OTR cutting machines for giant tires up to 4000mm in diameter.
Main Function of the Tire Cutting Machine
The primary function of the tire cutting equipment is to cut tires (after bead wire removal) into blocks below 900mm. This step greatly facilitates the feeding process for tire shredders and improves the efficiency of the entire tyre recycling plant.
- For standard tires (≤1200mm): Our machine can process about 60 tires per hour, with a cutting power of 7.5 kW.
- For OTR tires (≤4000mm): The OTR tire cutting machine can slice the tire into sections with 2 cuts per minute, ideal for mining and construction equipment tires.

Why do we recommend pre-cutting your tires?
While a powerful tire shredding machine can handle whole tires, pre-cutting them with a dedicated tire cutting machine offers significant advantages:
- Boosts Shredder Throughput: Smaller tire blocks are processed much faster by the shredder, significantly increasing your overall hourly capacity.
- Reduces Shredder Wear and Tear: It lessens the strain on the shredder’s blades and motor, leading to lower maintenance costs and less downtime.
- Enables Use of Smaller Shredders: You can process large tires using a more cost-effective, smaller shredder model, optimizing your initial investment.
- Creates a Consistent Feedstock: Uniform blocks ensure a smooth, continuous flow of material into the shredder, preventing jams and ensuring stable operation.
Applications of Tyre Cutting Machine
The tyre rubber cutting machine is suitable for:
- Truck tires, bus tires, passenger car tires
- OTR and mining tires
- Waste tire recycling plants
- Rubber powder or reclaimed rubber production
