How Can Large Steel Scrap Be Processed Efficiently in the UAE’s High-Volume Recycling Industry?

Project Location: United Arab Emirates

Equipment: Q43L-8000 Heavy Duty Hydraulic Gantry Shear

Customer Background

The customer operates a large industrial scrap recycling yard in the UAE, supplying processed steel scrap to local steel mills and export markets.
Daily scrap intake includes heavy steel sections, long profiles, thick plates, and mixed structural scrap from construction and industrial sources.

Local Challenges

  • Oversized and irregular scrap
    Long steel beams and thick profiles were difficult to process using conventional shears or manual cutting.

  • High labor dependency
    Manual sorting and cutting increased labor costs and slowed down throughput.

  • Demand for continuous operation
    High daily scrap volume required a machine capable of stable, long-hour operation in hot and dusty conditions.

Our Solution

We supplied the Q43L-8000 Hydraulic Gantry Shear, configured for large-scale industrial use:

  • 8000 × 2000 mm large press box for bulky scrap loading

  • 2000 mm blade length for efficient cutting of long steel sections

  • High-power hydraulic system (45 kW × 6) for continuous operation

  • PLC-controlled system for safer and more efficient operation

Results After Installation

✔ Scrap processing efficiency significantly increased
✔ Oversized scrap reduced to furnace-ready sizes
✔ Labor requirement lowered through automated cutting
✔ Stable operation under UAE’s harsh working conditions

Customer Feedback:

“This gantry shear allows us to handle heavy scrap in large volumes without interruption. It has become a core machine in our recycling line.”
