A method of processing scrap rubber

摘要

This invention relates to a method of processing rubber blocks with steel. The rubber blocks of irregular shape come from scrap material provided by tire production lines. The irregular blocks of rubber with wire and capillary strands of steel are cut into smaller blocks and then these smaller blocks are crushed until they turn into blankets of rubber and steel wire. The thickness of each of the rubber and steel wire blankets is made uniform. A plurality of rubber and steel wire blankets of uniform thickness are then joined together to make a single piece of rubber and steel wire having a uniform thickness. The single piece is then cut so as to form processed slabs ready to be used as raw material for other processing lines where rubber articles are manufactured.
