After buying in a set of desired forged wheels, how can we keep them as shiny as new for a long time and ensure that their performance is not affected? Proper cleaning and maintenance are crucial. Incorrect care methods may damage expensive wheel surface coatings and even affect their balance. 

1.The correct steps for daily cleaning 

--Cleaning after cooling: It is necessary to do it after the wheel hub and brake system have completely cooled down. Splashing cold water on high-temperature metal may cause deformation or cracking. 

--Pre rinsing: First, rinse off the sediment and dust attached to the surface with low-pressure water to prevent particles from scratching the paint surface during wiping.

--Use specialized cleaning agents: Choose neutral aluminum alloy wheel hub specialized cleaning agents. Avoid using strong acids, or common household cleaning agents, as they will corrode the varnish layer or brushed surface of the wheel hub. After spraying the cleaning agent, let it stand for a moment to decompose brake dust and oil stains. 

--Gently scrub: Use a soft brush (such as a detail brush, wool wheel hub brush) to gently scrub the gaps between the spokes and the back. For the surface, wipe it with a sponge or microfiber cloth. Avoid using sharp objects such as steel wire balls and hard brushes. 

-- Thorough washing and drying: rinse all foam with clean water, and then wipe it thoroughly with clean chamois or microfiber towel to prevent water stains from forming.

2.Maintenance for different surfaces wheels

--Bright/Chromed wheels: Wheel wax or coating agents can be used regularly for protection, which can effectively resist brake dust adhesion and make cleaning easier. 

--Brushed surface wheel hub: High surface hardness but afraid of scratches. When cleaning, it is necessary to be extra gentle and can be regularly repaired and protected with varnish by a professional shop. 

--Matte/Spray finish: Follow the general cleaning steps and avoid using maintenance products with gloss function.

3.Long term storage and damage handling

If the vehicle is parked for a long time, it is recommended to remove the 18 inch 5-hole forged wheel hub, clean and wax it, and store it in a special wheel hub bag in a cool and dry place. If minor scratches occur, the damaged paint surface should be promptly repaired to prevent oxidation of the aluminum alloy. For severe collision and deformation, do not continue to use it and immediately submit it to a professional organization for testing and repair. Regularly check the tightening torque of the wheel hub bolts to ensure safety. 

Following the above maintenance tips, your T6061-T6 forged wheels will not only always shine brightly, but also have the maximum guarantee of service life and safety.

The reason why 6061-T6 aluminum alloy forged wheels have become the preferred choice for household cars is its lightweight and stability. 

Compared with regular casting steel, 6061-T6 aluminum alloy has a lower density, reduces weight by 25% for the same size, and can lower vehicle fuel consumption; At the same time, after T6 heat treatment, the deformation resistance is increased by 30%, making it easy to cope with urban congestion and high-speed driving.

For distributors who purchase in bulk, factory supplied aluminum forged wheels for household use are more cost-effective. The direct supply mode eliminates intermediate links, reduces procurement costs by 15% -20%, and manufacturers can adjust parameters such as hole spacing and offset according to vehicle needs, such as adapting to the 17 inch specifications of mainstream household cars such as Volkswagen and Toyota, which can cover more customer needs.

In daily use, 17/18 inch 4-hole and 5-hole comfortable forged wheels are the popular choice for household cars. 17/18 inch size paired with 55-60 flat ratio tires can balance comfort and handling, filtering out road bumps; The 4-hole and 5-hole design evenly disperses pressure and is suitable for the wheel hub installation position of most compact and medium-sized household cars. It is easy to install and has strong stability.

The core of choosing forged wheels for household cars is "adaptability+practicality". 6061-T6 aluminum alloy material ensures performance, factory direct supply mode controls costs, and the 17 inch /18 inch 4-hole and 5-hole specification is compatible with most car models. The combination of the three can meet all daily commuting needs. In the future, with the trend of electrification of household cars, the demand for lightweight forged wheels will continue to grow. Choosing products that are suitable for one's own vehicle model can truly enhance the travel experience.

The cleaned fragments enter a continuous carbonization furnace where they're heated in an oxygen-free environment. Through thermal decomposition at controlled temperatures, the paint layers soften and break down into gas and carbon black, separating cleanly from the aluminum base. The furnace's rotating design ensures even heat distribution throughout the process.

After carbonization, the aluminum material goes through cooling and mechanical processing to remove any remaining carbon residues. The final output is pure aluminum ready for smelting. Notably, the combustible gases generated during pyrolysis are captured and reused to power the equipment, creating an energy-efficient closed-loop system.

​Key Advantages of the Process​
The automated continuous operation allows for 24/7 processing with daily capacity reaching tens of tons—significantly outperforming traditional chemical paint removal methods. The system achieves over 98% paint removal efficiency with minimal human intervention.

From an environmental perspective, the process eliminates the need for harsh chemicals, preventing contamination from acid or alkaline wastewater. Emissions are effectively treated through purification systems like activated carbon adsorption, meeting stringent air pollution standards.

The economic benefits are equally impressive. The resulting aluminum boasts higher purity levels, achieving recovery rates exceeding 95% when converted to recycled aluminum ingots. This creates substantial economic value while supporting circular economy goals.

​Market Outlook and Applications​
Growing environmental regulations, including China's Solid Waste Pollution Prevention Law, are driving adoption of cleaner technologies like carbonization. The process's environmentally friendly characteristics facilitate compliance with environmental impact assessment requirements.

The technology also enables complete resource utilization. By-products such as carbon black can be repurposed as rubber fillers or soil conditioners, creating additional value streams while minimizing waste.

This advanced approach to can recycling represents a significant step toward sustainable manufacturing. By transforming waste into high-quality materials, it demonstrates how technological innovation can drive both environmental protection and economic growth.

Imagine an assembly line for cleaning metal. That's essentially what a continuous decoating furnace is. Unlike batch processes, it operates non-stop, feeding metal parts through different zones for heating, processing, and cooling.

This continuous workflow translates to vastly higher throughput. Whether the items have thin or thick paint layers, the furnace parameters—like temperature and processing speed—can be easily adjusted to achieve a perfect, clean strip. This flexibility makes it ideal for handling a wide variety of metal parts efficiently, saving significant time and labor.

​2. A Clear Win for Safety and the Environment​

This is perhaps the most significant advantage. Chemical paint strippers often contain harsh, toxic substances that pose risks to worker health and the environment. Safe handling requires strict protective measures, and the disposal of used chemicals creates hazardous waste.

The decoating furnace eliminates this problem entirely. It uses high temperatures in a controlled, oxygen-free environment to break down paint into gas and a small amount of solid residue. It's a purely physical process—no toxic chemicals are needed. This means no dangerous fumes for workers, no risk of chemical spills, and no toxic wastewater to treat. It’s a much cleaner and safer solution for everyone.

​

3. Simple Operation and Easy Maintenance​

Managing chemical strippers is complex. It requires careful monitoring, storage, and handling procedures to prevent accidents. In contrast, continuous decoating furnaces are designed for simplicity. Modern units are equipped with automated control systems that manage the entire process—temperature, conveyor speed, and atmosphere are all precisely controlled from a panel.

This automation reduces the potential for human error and minimizes the need for specialized operator intervention. Maintenance is also straightforward, typically involving regular inspections and basic servicing to ensure long-term, reliable performance.

​4. Handles Almost Any Metal Part​

Versatility is a major strength. These furnaces can be adapted to process metal parts of various shapes and sizes, from small components to large structural pieces. By fine-tuning the equipment settings, different materials and coating types can be effectively treated. This broad adaptability makes the technology useful across many industries, including automotive manufacturing, aerospace, metal recycling, and general metalworking.

​5. Energy Efficient and Cost-Effective​

While heating a furnace requires energy, modern continuous designs are built for efficiency. Advanced insulation and heat recovery systems capture and reuse heat within the furnace, significantly reducing energy consumption. Furthermore, the combustible gases produced during the paint removal process can often be captured and used to fuel the system, creating an energy-saving loop.

Over time, these efficiencies lead to lower operating costs compared to the recurring expense of purchasing and disposing of chemical strippers.

The shift from chemical paint strippers to continuous decoating furnaces represents a major step forward for industry. With their superior efficiency, enhanced safety profile, environmental benefits, and operational simplicity, these furnaces are not just an alternative—they are a clear upgrade. They align perfectly with the goals of modern, sustainable manufacturing, helping businesses work smarter, safer, and greener.

Selecting an industrial tire shredder is a major investment that forms the foundation of a profitable recycling operation. The right machine can bring long-term success, while the wrong choice may lead to constant downtime and high maintenance costs. This guide simplifies the decision-making process by breaking it down into seven key factors you should consider.

​1. Processing Capacity (Throughput)​​
Start by evaluating your actual needs. How many tons of tires do you need to process per hour? Be realistic about your current volume and allow for future growth. A small operation might start with a machine handling 2 tons per hour, while larger facilities may require equipment capable of processing 15-20 tons per hour. Choose a supplier that offers multiple models to match your specific needs without paying for unnecessary capacity.

​2. Tire Types and Feed Size​
Not all tires are the same. Are you processing passenger car tires (typically under 900mm) or larger truck tires (up to 1200mm)? The shredder's feed opening must be large enough to handle your largest tires without pre-cutting. A versatile industrial tire shredder should handle both car and truck tires with ease.

​3. Required Output Size​
Your final product determines your profit. The size of the rubber chips is determined by the blade width. Most TDF (Tire Derived Fuel) buyers require chips between 50mm and 100mm. Confirm the exact specifications with your buyers beforehand. Reputable equipment manufacturers can configure their machines to produce specific sizes within this range, ensuring your output meets market requirements.

​4. Power and Motor Quality​
The motor is the heart of your shredder. While power (kW) is crucial, it must match the machine's capacity. A 2-ton per hour machine might need about 65 kW, while a 15-ton per hour unit could require over 300 kW. More importantly, inquire about the motor brand. Reliable motors from established brands ensure better performance, higher efficiency, and longer service life, reducing the risk of unexpected breakdowns.

​5. Blade Material and Design​
Blades represent the core of your shredder and your main operating cost. Don't compromise on blade quality. Ask specific questions about the material composition. Are they made from basic steel or more durable alloy steel? High-quality alloy blades offer better wear resistance, staying sharper longer and requiring less frequent replacements. Also consider blade thickness - thicker blades (50mm to 100mm) generally provide more strength for heavy-duty applications.

​6. True Budget (Total Cost)​​
Look beyond the initial price tag. A cheaper machine may cost more in the long run. Consider the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), which includes the purchase price, energy consumption, maintenance costs (blade replacement, lubrication), and the machine's weight (which often reflects steel content and build quality). A heavier machine typically offers better stability and durability. An efficient, reliable industrial tire shredder may have a higher upfront cost but can save you money over its lifespan.

​7. After-Sales Service and Support​
When your machine stops, your business stops. Does the manufacturer offer good support? Ask these crucial questions: How long is the warranty? Are spare parts (especially blades) readily available? Is technical support available when problems occur? Choose a partner, not just a supplier. Good support is essential for critical industrial equipment.

By carefully considering these seven factors, you can make an informed decision that will serve your business for years to come. Remember that the cheapest option is rarely the most economical when viewed from a long-term perspective.
