4000kN Hydraulic Container Shear With 25MPa Pressure And Air Cooling For Scrap Processing

4000kN Hydraulic Container Shear with 25MPa Pressure

and Air Cooling for Scrap Processing

The Q43W-4000B Container Scrap Shear is a horizontal hydraulic scrap cutting machine designed for scrap metal recycling yards, metal processing factories, waste material collection centers, and steel mill material yards. It is also commonly called a horizontal scrap shear, automatic container shear, or box type scrap shear. The machine is mainly used to cut scrap steel, scrap iron, steel offcuts, profile steel waste, light metal structures, and mixed scrap metal.

This model is equipped with 4000kN cutting force, a 1400mm blade length, and a 1400×450mm output mouth, making it suitable for medium and large scrap cutting operations. Compared with manual cutting or small shearing machines, the Q43W-4000B hydraulic container scrap shear helps customers reduce cutting labor, improve scrap turnover speed, and make cut materials easier to stack, load, and transport.

The machine uses a hydraulic drive system with 25MPa hydraulic system pressure and a cutting speed of about 2–3 times per minute. The air cooling system helps control hydraulic oil temperature during longer working hours. With button control, the machine is easy to operate and suitable for daily use in recycling yards.

For customers who need to process scrap steel, steel bars, steel plate offcuts, profile steel waste, and medium-light scrap metal, the Q43W-4000B is a heavy duty scrap metal shear that combines cutting power, simple operation, and industrial durability. The machine can be manufactured according to ISO9001 or CE standard requirements for domestic and overseas customers.

Cause

In the scrap metal recycling and metal processing industry, customers often face the same problem: scrap volume is increasing, but the materials are irregular, long, and difficult to handle. Manual cutting is slow, costly, and unsafe, while small cutting machines may not meet the required processing speed.

Common problems include:

1. Long scrap steel is difficult to store and transport
   Steel offcuts, profile steel, scrap iron strips, and structural scrap occupy too much yard space if not cut properly.
2. Manual cutting costs more and brings safety risks
   Flame cutting or manual cutting requires more labor and may create sparks, smoke, and workplace hazards.
3. Irregular scrap size reduces loading efficiency
   Scrap with different lengths wastes truck or container space during loading.
4. Small shears may not be enough for larger yards
   For medium and large recycling yards, small alligator shears or simple cutters may not support continuous processing needs.
5. Slow scrap turnover affects cash flow
   If scrap cannot be cut, loaded, and sold quickly, inventory turnover and business efficiency may be affected.

This is why customers need a stable and efficient hydraulic scrap shear for medium and large scrap cutting operations. The Q43W-4000B is designed for these real working conditions.

Solution

The Q43W-4000B horizontal scrap shear provides an efficient scrap cutting solution through its box type feeding structure, hydraulic cutting system, and stable output design.

Customers can feed scrap steel, steel offcuts, and profile waste into the cutting area. The hydraulic system drives the blade to complete the cutting action. After cutting, the material is discharged through the 1400×450mm output mouth, making it easier to stack, load, transport, or send for smelting.

Compared with traditional manual cutting, this container scrap shear reduces labor involvement, improves processing efficiency, and lowers on-site safety risks. Compared with smaller shears, the Q43W-4000B provides stronger cutting force and longer blade length, making it suitable for larger scrap materials and higher production frequency.

For scrap recycling companies, this machine helps turn long, messy, and hard-to-transport metal waste into shorter and more manageable material, improving the overall recycling process.

Specifications

Application

The Q43W-4000B hydraulic container scrap shear is suitable for many scrap metal cutting and recycling applications:

1. Scrap Metal Recycling Yards

Used for cutting scrap steel, scrap iron, steel offcuts, and mixed metal waste to improve loading and transportation efficiency.

2. Metal Processing Plants

Suitable for processing steel plate offcuts, profile waste, cutting scrap, and stamping waste generated during production.

3. Steel Mill Material Yards

Used to cut long scrap steel into suitable sizes for storage, transportation, and later smelting.

4. Dismantling and Recycling Companies

Suitable for medium-light metal waste from machinery dismantling, construction demolition, and equipment recycling.

5. Waste Material Collection Centers

Suitable for recycling companies that need batch scrap cutting and faster material turnover.

How It Works

The Q43W-4000B horizontal scrap shear works through a hydraulic drive system. During operation, the operator loads scrap metal into the cutting area and starts the machine through the button control system. The hydraulic pump station provides power, and the cylinder pushes the blade to complete the cutting action.

After cutting, the scrap is discharged from the output mouth. The cut material becomes more regular and easier to handle, stack, and transport. The air cooling system helps cool the hydraulic oil, supporting stable operation during longer working hours.

The machine performs cold cutting without heating the material, making it suitable for daily use in scrap yards and metal processing plants. For customers, its main value is to cut long and irregular scrap into shorter pieces for easier downstream handling.

Core Advantages

1. 4000kN Cutting Force for Medium and Large Scrap Processing

The 4000kN cutting force can meet the cutting needs of various scrap steel, scrap iron, and metal offcuts, making the machine suitable for recycling yards and metal factories.

2. 1400mm Blade Length for Better Cutting Coverage

The 1400mm blade length covers wider materials and improves single-cut efficiency, reducing repeated handling.

3. 1400×450mm Output Mouth for Smooth Discharge

The reasonable output mouth size helps cut scrap discharge smoothly and makes later stacking and transfer easier.

4. 84kW Power for Industrial Scrap Cutting

The 84kW power configuration provides stable hydraulic force for industrial scrap metal cutting.

5. Air Cooling System for Stable Operation

The air cooling system helps control hydraulic oil temperature and reduces overheating risk during longer operation.

6. Button Control for Easy Operation

The button control system is clear and easy to use, making it suitable for operators in recycling yards.

How To Choose

When choosing a horizontal scrap shear, customers should consider real material conditions instead of only comparing cutting force.

If the customer mainly processes scrap steel, scrap iron, steel offcuts, and medium-light metal waste, and needs stable cutting efficiency, the Q43W-4000B 4000kN container scrap shear is a suitable option. If the material is thicker or heavier, or the production requirement is higher, it is better to confirm the model with engineers before purchase.
