How Does a Truck Tire Baler Work

2025-10-22 Leave a message

Tire Baling Process

1 Feeding and Positioning Truck Tires

After the equipment is started, a dedicated feeder begins receiving truck tires to be processed. The feeder typically uses a chain or belt conveyor structure, adapted to the larger size and weight of truck tires, smoothly conveying the tires into the baling chamber.

Simultaneously, a guide mechanism within the chamber precisely positions the tires, adjusting their angle and position to prevent tilting or uneven stacking. This ensures uniform force during subsequent compression and prevents baling chamber jams caused by tire shifting, paving the way for efficient compression.

2 Hydraulically Driven High-Pressure Compression

After tire positioning is complete, the hydraulic system becomes the core power source. The hydraulic pump pressurizes hydraulic oil and delivers it to the compression cylinder, pushing the piston rod inside the cylinder to drive the ram to apply high pressure to the tires in the baling chamber.

Due to the thick and elastic rubber of truck tires, the ram slowly applies pressure in stages, gradually squeezing out the air inside the tire, reducing its volume and initially compressing the tire into a block, laying the foundation for subsequent shaping.

3 Assisted Shaping During Compression

During high-pressure compression, the auxiliary shaping mechanisms on both sides of the baling chamber activate. These mechanisms apply lateral pressure to the compressed tire block via hydraulically driven side pushers, further eliminating any remaining voids within the tire, resulting in a more uniform density and a more regular shape.

Furthermore, a temperature control device, equipped on some models, moderately heats the tire surface rubber, reducing its elasticity and enhancing the compression shaping effect. This ensures that the resulting tire block resists loosening, meeting subsequent handling and storage requirements.

4 Finished Product Bundling and Equipment Reset

Once the tire block is shaped, the equipment automatically activates the strapping mechanism, wrapping it with high-strength strapping, tightening and securing it to prevent loosening during subsequent handling.

Once strapping is complete, the discharge door of the baling chamber automatically opens, and the pressing head reverses its motion, pushing the finished tire block into the designated area. The discharge door then closes, and the pressing head returns to its initial position.

Simultaneously, the feed mechanism restarts, delivering the next batch of truck tires, and the equipment enters the next baling cycle, achieving continuous automated processing and improving overall efficiency.
