ECO Green Equipment – a renowned tire recycling equipment manufacturer from Utah, United States, was recently featured in an article by Hydraulics & Pneumatics magazine. The magazine says that by relying on hydraulic pumps, ECO Green’s unique cracker mill for rubber powder downsizing, Krumbuster, turns end-of-life tires into crumb rubber and super-fine rubber powder with record speed and a smaller environmental footprint.

ECO Green Equipment produces turnkey industrial tire recycling solutions to help companies turn end-of-life tires into valuable marketable materials and goods. And as their revolutionary Krumbuster machine shows, they’re doing it in a cheap, fast and environment-friendly way.

Like other cracker mills, the Krumbuster machine turns recycled tires into crumb rubber that can be used in products like artificial turf, rubberized pavement and playground surfaces. But the machine overcomes a common industry obstacle to achieve 50% higher output than the competition while using 35% less horsepower.

Cracker mills, ECO Green’s team says, operate with two corrugated rolls that operate at different speeds to crush and grind rubber into crumb. Typical mills contend with a very narrow range of speed differentials (also known as friction rations), which limits their ability to turn out sufficient quantities of crumb across their full range of speed. It’s a well-known industry problem that, up until now, has lacked a good solution.

The Krumbuster, according to ECO Green Equipment has reinvented the process, using hydraulic pumps instead of mechanical gearboxes. The hydraulic power allows the machine to respond quickly to variations in friction ratios, high shock loads and constant pressure changes. As a result, it delivers full torque at all speeds while using less energy. It also requires much less maintenance due to the fact that it can be started under load. This negates the need to clean the rolls out before starting the machine.

The Krumbuster was recently praised by Parker Hyudraulics & Pneumatics for “streamlining” tire recycling through its added “reliability and responsiveness.” This is all in a day’s work for Brad Swenson, President of ECO Green Equipment, who has made it his mission to revolutionize tire recycling technology. “Our goal is to help companies turn over the maximum amount of rubber with the minimum amount of energy, and we’re constantly innovating ways to do this better.”

ECO Green Equipment has developed a full line of stand-alone and integrated equipment that is smashing the status quo for cost-effectiveness and energy efficiency. Their ECO Green Giant is one of the patented leaders in tire recycling and fine rubber powder production with the lowest operating and maintenance costs in the industry.
