The tire cutter machine is a critical piece of equipment in the waste tire recycling process. Specifically designed for cutting used tires after the bead wires on both sides have been removed, this machine slices the tire into three manageable sections, making it easier for further processing in a tire shredder and rubber crusher.
Whether you are handling standard car and truck tires or larger OTR (Off-the-Road) tires, our tire cutting solutions are tailored to meet your capacity and tire size needs.

Why Use a Tire Cutter?
Cutting waste tires into smaller pieces is essential for:
- Reducing volume for efficient handling
- Preventing equipment damage during shredding
- Improving processing speed in the next stage
- Meeting safety standards in tire recycling operations
The tire cutter machine simplifies pre-treatment and ensures a smooth transition to downstream machines like rubber tire shredders and rubber powder mills.

Applications and Working Principle
This machine is suitable for waste tires with a diameter up to 1200mm after the tire bead wire has been removed using a tire debeader. The cutting process is powered by hydraulic cylinders, offering high precision and cutting force.
- The operator places the tire horizontally into the cutting platform.
- The hydraulic system drives the blade to press down.
- The tire is sliced into three sections (left, middle, right) to prepare it for shredding or granulation.
Tire Cutter Machine Models Available
We offer two models of tire cutting machines:
- Standard Tire Cutter: Designed for tires ≤1200mm in diameter, such as passenger car and truck tires.
- Heavy-Duty OTR Tire Cutting Machine: Designed for large engineering or mining tires, supporting tires up to 3 meters or more in diameter. This version features reinforced structure and more powerful hydraulic systems.
Both machines are built with high-grade steel and easy-to-operate hydraulic systems, ensuring long service life and minimal maintenance.
