ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for reducing worn out automobile and truck tires to useful particles of rubber and steel. The apparatus includes a conveyor which carries the tires through a cutting mechanism in the form of a pair of transverse saw blades and a single longitudinal saw blade. The saw blades cut each tire into four pieces which are fed down an inclined chute against the abrasive surface of a grinding wheel. The tire pieces are ground by the wheel into small particles of rubber and steel which are separated from one another by a magnetic conveyor.
