Upgrade Your Recycling Line with a 280-Ton Hydraulic OTR Tire Cutting Machine

Recycling large OTR tires is a significant challenge. If you are struggling with low output and high wear and tear on equipment, the solution lies in a machine built for power. The Hydraulic OTR Tire Cutting Machine (Model: ZS-CJ-4000) is the robust workhorse designed to transform your recycling process and maximize your profitability.

Cutting a massive tire, especially one containing steel wire, requires immense force. The 280-ton OTR tire cutter meets this challenge head-on. The machine utilizes a powerful hydraulic system to drive the blades. The working principle is simple: mechanical hoisting places the tire between the blades, and the hydraulic cylinder drives the cut. In fact, this machine can even cut through the 5 cm steel wire found in OTR tires . This powerful action efficiently cuts tires into 6-8 manageable pieces for easier secondary processing.

Designed for the Toughest Jobs

The core strength of this equipment lies in its robust construction and high-quality materials. The industrial tire recycling equipment has a heavy-duty bed frame and columns to handle the incredible stress of continuous operation. The cutting system features 12 high-quality blades—six on the top and six on the bottom—made from durable Cr12 material. This material is chosen for its wear resistance, ensuring a longer service life. You can cut up to 2000 tons of tires before the blades require changing. When they do eventually wear out, the design allows for easy replacement to keep your operation running smoothly.

Unmatched Technical Specifications

The ZS-CJ-4000 is engineered for extreme-duty recycling. It boasts an impressive 4000mm tire cutting capacity, making it suitable for the largest OTR tires. The heavy-duty hydraulic shear is powered by an 18.5kw motor (400VAC, 3 phases, European standard). It also features a large, dedicated work platform for safe loading .

Essential Maintenance for Long-Term Efficiency

Maintaining the giant tyre cutter is simple, ensuring your investment lasts. Regular maintenance is key for continuous high performance. Recommended actions include:

  • Changing hydraulic valves every 4-5 months.

  • Adding hydraulic oil every 2 months.

  • Replacing the Cr12 blades when worn.

This routine ensures your machinery maintains a high capacity, reportedly handling 3-5 tons of tires per hour. This level of efficiency makes it a foundational component for any serious tire recycling facility .
