A COT-10 pneumatic tyre tripling machine is used for doubling tyres (packing them one inside the other). With its help, you can easily load around 3000-3200 tyres into a 40ft container – it decreases the shipping costs by two thirds.
KEY FEATURES
- It can make packs of 6 or more car, jeep or C-type tyres.
- You can make around 50 packs of 4 tyres in an hour.
- It is safe for the operator and will not damage tyres.
- It is controlled by levers and the operator can fully control each operation.
DRIVE
- It is a pneumatic machine, so a compressor is required to power it (not included with the machine).
- We recommend using a compressor with a tank of at least 200 liters (≈ 53 gallons)
- The required supply pressure is 8 –10 bar (≈ 116 – 145 psi)
- It cannot operate when the temperature drops below 0 °C / 32 °F.
RELIABILITY
- Its design is simple so its maintenance is easy.
- For production we use only the highest quality components, so it can serve reliably for many years without the need for repair.
- It meets high safety standards and is CE certified.
- We offer a 2-year warranty and technical support for several decades.
SHIPPING
- We ship it to every country in the world.
- We produce it in our factory in Poland, so delivery across Europe is fast.
- A forklift is needed to unload the machine.
- For transport, we remove the upper actuator, but its installation is simple.
DIMENSIONS WITH HOUSING
- Height 320 cm
- Width 130 cm
- Length 260 cm
- Weight 587 kg
USE IN PYROLYSIS
This machine is often used by tyre pyrolysis plants, as packing the tyres into bundles allows more tyres to be inserted into the reactor without having to cut through them. This ensures that the intact steel wire is arranged in bundles, making it significantly easier to separate it from the soot and pyrolysis oil once the reaction is complete.
The following are general rules for tripling tyres. These are not rigid guidelines, as there are sometimes exceptions, which you should check yourself.
1. The table of the machine can fit a car, jeep or commercial tyre with a minimum diameter of 12 inches and maximum diameter of 24 inches (truck/lorry tyres are not compatible with it);
2. The outer tyre must be the same or larger in diameter than the inner tyre (e.g. 16″ –> 16″, 18″ –> 17″).
3. Any tyre that is less than 15 inches in diameter will need to be the last tyre in the pack (the tyre in the very center of the pack). It is impossible to fit another tyre into a 14-inch or smaller tyre because the jaws would be too close together and the vertical pusher would not fit between them;
4. The width of each tyre into which another tyre is inserted must be at least 10 mm larger than the tyre being inserted (e.g. 215 –> 205).
