Recently, a Latin America customer inquired about a 5-ton per hour tire granulation line project, of which 90% are car tires, and the rest are truck tires, tractor tires, bus tires, etc., but the diameter does not exceed 1200mm. The customer's requirements for the discharge particle size are relatively wide, and they have the following applications:
- Around 50x50mm, to be used as a substitute fuel for cement kilns and generates energy through combustion
- ＜1mm, to be used as rubber powder for fine sand and mortar for construction, or for sewage treatment
- from 2 to 5mm, to be used as a medium: coarse sand for reinforced concrete, paving, and asphalt production
The client is a turnkey engineering company that provides comprehensive solutions with financial, environmental, and operational goals for various fields such as industry, shopping centers, hospitals, and commercial buildings. After preliminary communication, it has been determined that the project is currently in the feasibility study stage, and our company only needs to provide the equipment solution and quotation (not a turnkey project). Then it entered into a the further discussion phase.
Later, the customer sent their requirements, specifying a discharge size between 0-5mm, and talked about the requirements for shredding, granulation, iron removal, fiber removal, and process diagram. Based on these specific requirements, we have provided the customer with a corresponding plan, which includes main equipment such as tire bead wire puller, tire shredding+drum screening integrated machine, rubber breaking unit, fiber separator, fully meeting the customer's current requirements. And we also sent the corresponding quotation to the customer, who was quite satisfied. At present, the project is still progressing in an orderly manner.
