In 2024, our company successfully delivered a 630 Ton Hydraulic Baler Shear to a large steel plant located in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The customer specializes in recycling and reprocessing rebar, round steel, and structural scrap. Previously, their operations relied heavily on manual gas cutting, which was inefficient, energy-consuming, and posed significant safety risks. After comparing several suppliers, the client chose our Y83Q Series 630 Ton Hydraulic Baler Shear to improve automation, reduce labor costs, and achieve environmentally friendly production.
The machine is equipped with a powerful cutting force of 6300 kN, a 700×500 mm cutting mouth, and is capable of cutting round steel up to Φ110×110 mm. It operates with four 55 kW motors and achieves an output of 10–15 tons per hour. The system combines baling and shearing functions in one unit, efficiently processing scrap steel, steel plates, and profiles—making it an ideal solution for modern steel recycling plants.
After arrival in Sri Lanka, our engineers provided remote technical guidance for installation and commissioning. The machine was fully operational within a few days. During production, it showed stable hydraulic performance, fast cutting speed, low noise, and easy control. Even under local high-temperature conditions, the air-cooling system ensured consistent oil temperature and continuous operation without downtime.
According to the customer, “This 630-ton hydraulic baler shear is powerful and reliable. Our efficiency has tripled—we can now process 10 to 15 tons of scrap steel per hour. The cutting results are clean, energy consumption is low, and maintenance is simple.” With the help of the machine’s energy-saving hydraulic system, their factory has reduced power costs by approximately 15% per month. Due to the excellent results, the customer plans to purchase a 1000-ton heavy-duty shear next year for cutting larger steel plates.
This cooperation marked a successful transition from manual cutting to automated hydraulic shearing. It significantly improved production efficiency, workplace safety, and environmental performance. The case once again proves the strong performance and reliability of our Chinese-made hydraulic machinery in the international market. The Y83Q Series 630 Ton Hydraulic Baler Shear has become a trusted and efficient choice for steel plants worldwide.
