Tire Crusher Machine | Rubber Granulator
Main Applications
The tire crusher machine is the core machine of rubber powder production line. It is designed to machine to grind rubber into powder or granules. The grinder can process 30-100 mm tire blocks into 5-40 mesh rubber powder and separate steel wire and nylon fiber during operation.
How to Make Rubber Powder from Tires?
The rubber tire crushing system is mainly composed of three parts: one tire crusher machine, sieving machines and magnetic separators.
Crushing equipment: the crushing part mainly consists of frame, front and rear two rollers, motor, reducer, gap adjustment device, electronic control system and so on. When the crusher is working, the two rollers of the crusher to do relative rotation, rubber blocks are sucked into the gap between the two sticks for processing. The operator adjusts the distance between the two rollers to adjust the size of the finished rubber powder.
Sieving equipment: The crushed rubber granules are separated into two parts through the vibrating sifter: size qualified and unqualified. The unqualified granules are because of oversize, the automatic conveyor belt will re-feed them into the rubber shredder to be grinded again until they are qualified in size. The rubber granules with qualified size are transported to the next magnetic separation section.
Magnetic Separation: The magnetic separator is designed to remove the fine iron filaments in the rubber powder, Shuliy provides two magnetic separation steps, the first one is using double roll magnetic separator for rough separation, the second one is using single roll magnetic separator for fine separation, after the rubber powder is separated by magnetic separation, the fine iron filaments will be removed completely, and the purity of the rubber powder can be more than 99%.

Note: the specific output of the crusher machine is inextricably linked to the size of the finished product: the larger the particle size of the rubber powder, the higher the output. Relatively, the smaller the particle size of rubber powder, the smaller the output.
Tire Shredding System Highlight
As the core equipment in the rubber powder production line, Shuliy perfectly matches the three parts of crushing, screening and magnetic separation, using an automatic conveyor belt to connect, the production process is silky smooth, which greatly saves labor costs and improves work efficiency.
Shuliy offers a wide range output of rubber powder production lines, typically in the range of 80-2300 kg/h. This range of production capacity can satisfy the majority of tire recycling plants, including start-ups and experienced companies that want to expand their production capacity.
The screen size in the screening system can be customized, and the size of the rubber powder is at the discretion of our customers. In addition, we can also send our customers an extra screen for spare parts.
The magnetic separator adopts permanent magnets with high magnetic induction strength, which can separate the iron wire efficiently.
Shuliy provides glue powder collection system. Customers can choose according to their needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most frequently asked questions by customers who purchased Shuliy rubber powder machine.The tyre granulator machine supports multiple mesh outputs including 10, 20, 30, and 40 mesh—suitable for various end uses like rubber tiles, mats, or modifiers.
Yes, the machine includes built-in magnetic and air separation units that remove steel wires and nylon fibers during the grinding process.
A standard rubber tire crushing machine line requires 50–80 square meters, depending on the model and layout. We offer free layout support.
Yes. Pre-processed tire blocks from OTR, bus, or truck tires can be fed into the grinder. We recommend using a shredder or chunk cutter before grinding.
Based on your target powder mesh size and hourly capacity, we’ll recommend a suitable tyre granulator machine from SL-350 to SL-660. You can contact us and our sales manager will tell you the specification in details.
Yes. We offer full tire recycling systems, from shredders to the tire rubber grinding machine, all tailored to your space and budget.
Yes. We offer modular design—start with an SL-400 or SL-560 and upgrade to a higher-output tyre granulate machine without changing the full layout.
Our machines are industrial-grade, with overload protection, heavy-duty bearings, and Siemens or Chinese top-brand motors for 24/7 operations.
Yes. We provide video installation support, English manuals for our rubber powder machine, and can arrange overseas engineers if needed. Spare parts can be shipped quickly.
Most clients recover their investment within 8 to 12 months, depending on tire availability, labor costs, and local rubber powder selling price. If you’re using a tire rubber grinding machine to produce 20–40 mesh powder for value-added applications (e.g., tiles, playground surfaces), ROI can be even faster.
The average cost to process 1 ton of tire material into rubber powder (including power, labor, and wear parts) is around $30–$60, while market prices for 20–40 mesh rubber powder can range from $200 to $400/ton, depending on purity and local demand. A rubber powder machine line with stable output and good separation rate can offer profit margins above 50%.
Very much so. In markets like Nigeria, Egypt, India, and South America, used tires are abundant and labor cost is lower. A rubber powder machine can be an affordable entry into the recycling industry, especially when paired with local tile pressing or asphalt applications.
