What are the uses of shredded tires

Contact Person:Mr.Zhao 0086-13523465141

Old tires are a serious environmental hazard if left alone, however, they are surprisingly helpful in their shredded form as they contribute to a greener environment through tire recycling. Once you put your waste rubber tires  into high-quality tire shredders, they will be transformed and reused in a variety of constructive ways.
 
Here are uses of shredded tires:

1. Rubberized Asphalt (Used in Roadway Construction)
 
This is when asphalt concrete is mixed with crumb rubber from old tires. Rubberized asphalt is rubber modified asphalt which weighs less than 15% of the total weight of regular asphalt cement. Rubberized asphalt is resilient, flexible and eco-friendly and is designed to reduce skid resistance, lower maintenance costs and improve performance, making it safer than traditional asphalt. Rubberized asphalt gives better night time visibility as well as reducing traffic noise by more than 5 decibels. The flexibility of the rubber slows down the aging and oxidation of the asphalt and prevents it from cracking up. Rubberized asphalt can be used wherever traditional asphalt concrete is normally used.
 
2. Construction and Building Materials
 
The U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) green building rating system awards points for eco-friendly construction features. Using recycled tire materials will help you promote and meet your eco-friendly building requirements. You can use recycled tire products in a lot of different categories according to the LEED points:
 
Regional Materials – To build your products and materials that are extracted and manufactured within 500 miles.
Recycled Content – You can use this to build materials that are made up of recycled content materials.
Stormwater Design – Helps in creating waterproof surfaces that lower the runoff.

3. Landfills
 
Tire shreds obtained from tire shredding can be used for various different purposes on landfill sites. You can create a protective layer of shredded tire chips over the landfill liner. You can also use them in the drainage layer in the landfill’s liner as well as in the gas vents. Tire shreds are also used in the leachate collection system that prevents the poisoning of our water sources and home water supplies.

4. Helps with Drainage
 
Shredded tire chips help a lot with drainage. The rubber chips are helpful in flood prone landfill areas as they allow the water to drain naturally into the ground without allowing it to become contaminated by the junk on the landfill. The rubber chips have to be shredded into 4 to 6 inch pieces for this to be effective.

How to Avoid Faults in Aluminum shredder

The main purpose of scrap  aluminum shredder  equipment is to tear all kinds of unqualified scrap iron into smaller pieces for recycling. Reduce the volume of unprocessed raw materials for mixing with other materials. How to avoid equipment failure in daily production of scrap aluminum shredder equipment?   1. Check and clean in time. After work every day, the machine should be cleaned in time. Check screw loosening and abrasion of easily worn parts such as claws, sieves, etc. http://www.sg-shredder.com/News/Industry_News/755.html

What to do if the metal shredder discharges unevenly

 In the course of use, the metal shredder has uneven discharge. Through analysis, Shuguang heavy machinery summarized the following reasons. First of all, because the voltage is unstable, it will affect the stability of the motor, resulting in uneven speed, fast and slow and other problems, which will worsen the uneven discharge. When the feed is uneven, it is easy to block and cause the cavity to become clogged. Fully process unfinished materials. In severe cases, many blockages may cause downtime or increase in motor temperature.  Secondly, the motor is unstable. When the voltage is stable, following the change of the force endured by the transmission, the fixed point of the motor will be displaced and the base screw will be loosened.  Therefore, it is necessary to check whether this part is complete. First, the current professional standards for shredders are not standard, and the supporting shredder blade standards are also complicated. The shredder produced by the s...

How to deal with the heating problem of shredder motor

When we use the motor for a long time, there will be the problem of motor heating. The motor will lack of oil after a long time, which will affect the production efficiency of the whole shredder equipment . If the motor is hot or burnt, there is no way to tear it. How to avoid the phenomenon of motor heating of the shredder? 1. The adjustment of the tension of the V-belt of the shredder equipment, when the V-belt is too tight, the motor bearing heats up, when the V-belt is too loose, the rotation speed decreases, and the V-belt is easy to slide, which all affect the service life. When adjusting the tension of the V-belt, the bolt fixing the motor base can be loosened, and the position of the motor on the slide way can be changed with the adjusting bolt, so that the V-belt can reach the required tightness, and then the fixed bolt can be tightened; 2.After the shredder motor works for a certain period of time, it is necessary to add oil or open the cleaning bearing and refill the file ba...
