In recent years, the scrap metal processing industry in Southern China, particularly in Guangxi, has experienced rapid growth. Driven by increasing infrastructure demand and the development of the steel industry, the need for efficient scrap processing has become more critical than ever.
Our client, a medium-to-large scrap processing company in Guangxi, specializes in scrap collection, sorting, and pre-processing. As their business expanded, they encountered several operational challenges that limited their growth potential.
Solution: Multi-Capacity Gantry Shear Configuration
To address these issues, we designed a multi-model gantry shear solution, allowing the client to process different types of scrap efficiently.
✔ Configuration:
- 500-ton gantry shear
For general and medium-size scrap
- 630-ton gantry shear
As the main production unit for standard materials
- 1000-ton gantry shear
For heavy-duty, oversized scrap processing
This combination enables flexible operation and avoids bottlenecks caused by relying on a single machine.

Results After Implementation
After installation, the client reported:
- ✔ 30%–50% increase in processing efficiency
- ✔ Improved capability for oversized scrap
- ✔ Reduced labor intensity and safer operation
- ✔ More balanced production flow across different material types
The multi-machine setup also enhanced overall operational stability.
Why the Client Chose Us
The client selected our company based on:
- ✔ Over 40 years of manufacturing experience in scrap processing equipment
- ✔ Professional engineering team offering customized solutions
- ✔ Ability to provide complete system planning, not just single machines
- ✔ Machines certified with CE and ISO9001 standards

Project Summary
This project represents more than a simple equipment purchase—it is a strategic upgrade of the client's production capacity. By implementing a multi-machine configuration, the client successfully transitioned from single-machine operation to a more flexible and efficient processing system.
For scrap processors facing growth challenges, investing in the right combination of equipment can deliver greater long-term value than simply increasing machine size
