In the recycling of tires with a diameter of less than 1200 mm, precision at the cutting stage directly impacts efficiency downstream. After tire sidewalls are removed and strips are cut, the next step is to transform those strips into clean, uniform blocks. That’s where a tire block cutting machine becomes indispensable.
What Is a Tire Block Cutting Machine?
A tire block cutter—also known as a tyre block cutting machine or waste tire block cutter—is designed to cut long rubber strips from waste tires into small, manageable blocks (typically 3–6 cm in size). These blocks are ideal for feeding into shredders, grinders, or pulverizing machines for further processing into rubber granules or powder.
This machine enhances feeding efficiency, reduces equipment strain, and improves output consistency in any semi-automatic tire recycling line.
Key Specifications of the Tire Block Cutter
We offer two models tailored to different capacities and budgets:
| Feature | QKJ-358 Common Tire Block Cutter | Updated Tire Block Cutter |

| Capacity | 800 kg/h | 1500 kg/h |
| Cutting Size | 3*5*6 cm | 5*5 cm |
| Machine Size (L*W*H) | 1.0*0.8*1.4 m | 1.3*1.1*1.5 m |
| Weight | 800 kg | 1200 kg |
Why Do You Need a Waste Tire Block Cutter?
Cutting rubber strips into smaller blocks offers several key benefits:
- Improved Feeding for Grinders/Shredders – Uniform blocks feed more evenly, reducing machine stress.
- Better Output Control – Consistent sizes improve downstream product quality.
- Reduced Labor – Eliminates the need for manual cutting.
- Space Efficiency – Easier to store and transport compared to long strips.
- Safety – Enclosed cutting chamber with guards ensures operator protection.
How Does the Tire Block Cutter Work?
- Feeding: Place the cut tire rubber strips into the feed opening of the tire block cutting machine.
- Clamping and Fixing: The hydraulic system will hold the rubber strip firmly in place to prevent it from moving during the cutting process.
- Rotating Cutting Blade Activation: The cutter shaft’s high-strength alloy blades rotate, driven by a motor, to cut into the rubber.
- The tire is cut into pieces. The entire tire is cut into regular chunks, about 5 cm each, for subsequent grinding for recycling.
- The finished product is discharged. The cut tire blocks pass through the drive belt and enter the grinding process.
