Carlisle Construction Materials, a subsidiary of Carlisle Companies Inc., is extending the company’s TyrFil Recycling Technology.
The new AutoFil-GenII pump can mix virgin tire fill with crumb rubber, polyurethane grind or a combination of both crumb rubber and PU. The new pump delivers “enhanced pump and grind speeds and significantly reduced clean-up time,” the company said. There also is enhanced visual interface through a monitor with improved touchscreen capabilities.
According to Carlisle, its TyrFil computer systems can accurately meter and mix controlled amounts virgin liquid tire fill with granulated tire fill to create a homogenous mixture for tire fill. Carlisle TyrFil is also known as foam fill and can be pumped into OTR tires to replace air with an elastomer core to eliminate flats. The process can be used on tires for both commercial and industrial heavy-equipment vehicles.
