ECOLOGIC SYSTEM ULTRACLEAN PLANT FOR PNEUMATIC DISINTEGRATION AND RECYCLING
The Airmation ULTRAClean technology applied to the Tyre industry enables the complete disposal of vehicle tires, worn at the end of their cycle or possibly defective from the start, using only water.
The ultra-high-pressure (UHP Airmation) technology with high-speed motorized rotating tools allows stripping and removal of rubber and textile reinforcement wires from tire carcasses, until the complete exposure of the metal wires.
The complete process allows the selection of technical materials resulting in:
- bare metal wires with a good degree of cleanliness
- disintegrated rubber granules and powder
- synthetic textile inserts (flocculated)
- metal beads of the bead (single or aggregated).
The separation of these materials is possible with the use of multi-stage filtration and retention systems. The process enables the production of pure rubber and quality, without any contamination from parts or metal inclusions which remain unchanged.
The perfect separation of the textile reinforcement from the disintegrated rubber, when required, involves a complex dedicated process with drying and specific selection.
A significant degree of experience accumulated in the rubber removal industry (raw and cooked) in various industrial sectors has allowed for the best fine-tuning of this application technology, aimed at the Tyre industry.
The plant targets and disposal timing depend on the specific requirements of the client (fully automated or partially automated plants) and various parameters such as the degree of cleanliness of the metal wires, granularity, and the selection of resulting materials (rubber – textile inserts).
Airmation has this process data available internally: for more details, please contact our Commercial Technical Service for Tyre.
As manufacturers of UHP equipment, the complete understanding of all issues related not only to the specific applications but also to the operation of high-pressure plants allows for the best exploration and validation of this process.
