OTR Debeader
The OTR debeader is a wire pre-processing machine designed for the treatment of OTR tires, mainly for the direct extraction of steel wires from the bead of tires with diameters between 1800mm and 4000mm.
Main Functions and Applications
The OTR debeader is primarily used to pull out the thick, hard steel wire from the bead of an OTR tire in one piece. The steel wire in the bead of an engineering tire is so strong and deeply embedded that if it is not pre-treated and goes directly into the tire recycling shredder, it will cause rapid wear and tear or even damage to the knives.
By separating the steel wire first, it not only improves the service life of the equipment, but also lays the foundation for subsequent cutting, shredding and sorting.

Features & Advantages of The OTR Tire Debeader
Our heavy-duty OTR tire debeader is built for strength, durability, and consistent performance.
- High pulling force hydraulic system for extracting ultra-strong OTR steel beads
- Reinforced gripping hook designed for large and heavy tires
- Adjustable structure suitable for different OTR diameters (25–63 inches)
- Safer operation with hydraulic lock and remote/start control
- Thickened machine base for handling extremely heavy tires
- Stable output & low maintenance for industrial recycling plants
These features make our OTR tyre debeader suitable for continuous, heavy-duty operation in demanding environments.



How Does The OTR Debeader Work?
The operator will place the large tire at the pulling hook of the equipment, and the hydraulic system will control the grappling hook to fix the tire, and then start the pulling device to strongly pull the steel wire in the bead directly out of the tire. The whole set of operations is safe and efficient, and can be adjusted according to different sizes of tyres.

It is suitable for loader tires, grader tires, dump truck tires, crane tires, and other large engineering tires.
OTR Debeader in a Complete Tire Recycling Line
The OTR tire debeader is the first step of an OTR tire recycling system. A typical workflow includes:
OTR Debeader
Removes the high-strength steel beads from both sides of the OTR tire, making the tire easier to cut and shred while protecting the machines that follow.
Tire Cutter Machine
Cuts the bead-removed OTR tire into several sections, allowing smoother feeding and handling in later stages.
Tire Shredder
The cut tire sections are fed into the shredder, where they are further shredded into smaller rubber pieces to improve processing efficiency.
Rubber Powder Mill
Grinds the shredded rubber into fine powder, which can be used for recycled rubber, rubber products manufacturing, or other deep-processing applications.
