Tire Steel wire separator, or debeader, is specialized equipment used to extract steel bead wires from waste tires, essential for optimizing rubber recycling by improving product purity and reducing downstream shredder wear. These hydraulic or mechanical machines, process tires by hooking and pulling steel rings from the sidewalls, enhancing efficiency and enabling the sale of clean steel.
This tire wire removal machine is designed to process tire sidewalls (≤1200mm in diameter) that contain steel wires. Using a dual-roller pressing method, it efficiently separates rubber from the embedded steel wires, making it a key machine in tire recycling.
Applicable Material & Application
Applicable Material: Tire sidewalls after ring cutting
Applications:
- Waste car tires
- Truck and bus tires
- OTR (off-the-road) tires
- Tire beads with embedded steel wire
- Pre-shredded tire rubber containing steel

Operation Principle of Tire Steel wire separator
The main working part of this machine is two relative rotary roll shafts with the same speed. When tire circle cut into the middle of two rollers, it will be extruded by roll shaft, at the same time, be squeezed, Sheared and tear by the two relative rotary rollers. And finally complete the separation of the steel wheel by many times.
