Tire Wire Removal Machine
The tire wire removal machine is a key piece of equipment in a waste tire recycling system, specifically designed to process the tire bead section that contains steel wires. Its primary function is to separate the steel ring embedded in the bead portion, previously removed by the ring cutter, using mechanical pressure from two rotating rollers. This allows for effective recovery of both rubber and steel materials.
Why Use a Steel Wire Separator?
A tire wire removal machine is an essential machine in the tire recycling process. Waste tires contain a large amount of embedded steel wire, which needs to be removed before further shredding or grinding. Using a steel wire separator improves the quality of rubber granules, protects downstream equipment, and allows the recovered steel to be reused or sold for profit.
Main benefits:
- Efficiently removes steel wires from tire treads and beads
- Reduces wear and tear on crushers and shredders
- Increases the purity of recycled rubber materials
- Helps maximize recycling value and reduce waste


Working Principle
The tire wire removal machine works by double rollers rotating and extruding. When the beads are placed between the two rollers, the two high-strength rollers rotate synchronously, effectively separating the steel beads embedded in the rubber from the rubber material through a strong squeezing action. The separated steel wire can be recycled separately, while the rubber part can be used for the subsequent shredding process.
The video shows the entire process of efficiently separating the steel wire from the bead section of a tyre in a tire bead wire remover machine for subsequent recycling of rubber and metal.

The picture shows the effect of the steel wire separator after efficiently separating the bead rubber from the internal steel wire. The separated steel wire can be recycled, and the rubber part is easier to crush and process, which greatly increases the value of resource recovery.


Features of The Tire Wire Removal Machine
- Wide Applicability: Suitable for tire beads with diameters up to 1200mm; customized models available for larger tires.
- High-Strength Construction: Equipped with hard alloy rollers, offering excellent wear resistance and long service life.
- Adjustable Roller Gap: The gap between the two rollers can be adjusted to accommodate different tire bead thicknesses.
- High Processing Efficiency: Capable of processing up to 120 tire beads per hour, saving labor and boosting productivity.

Applications and Complete Tire Recycling Line
The tire wire removal machine is usually used together with other tire recycling equipment, forming a complete recycling line. It can handle various tire types such as car tires, truck tires, and OTR tires.
Typical tire recycling line includes:
- Tire Bead Cutter Machine/Tire Dismantling Machine: Remove the bead containing the steel ring.
- Steel Wire Separator – Removes steel wires from the tire bead.
- Tire Shredder – Shreds the rubber into smaller pieces.
- Rubber cracker mill – Produces rubber granules or powder.


Price and How to Get a Quote
The price of a steel wire separator depends on its capacity, motor power, design type, and material strength. This model of tire wire removal machine is suitable for tyre beads with diameters up to 1200mm. For larger tyres, we also offer corresponding models.
