All in One Metal Shear and Baler | Efficient Scrap Processing Solution for Steel, Iron, and Aluminum

Product Overview

The Wanshida Y83Q-8000 hydraulic shear baler combines scrap compression and shearing for scrap yards, steel recycling facilities, and industrial metal processors. With 800 tons of shearing force, a 6000 × 2000 × 1500 mm loading chamber, and 315 kW installed motor power, it is designed to process bulky scrap steel before downstream handling and recycling.

Its large chamber accommodates irregular material, while hydraulic compression prepares the scrap for cutting. PLC control coordinates the operating sequence, helping operators manage repeated processing cycles.

Cause

Bulky scrap can occupy considerable yard space while remaining difficult to feed into downstream equipment. Long sections, loose offcuts, and irregular steel scrap also require different handling methods.

When compression and cutting take place at separate stations, material may need to be transferred repeatedly. A combined processing machine can simplify this stage, provided its chamber, cutting capacity, and output match the actual scrap stream.

Solution

The Y83Q-8000 brings hydraulic compression and shearing into one processing system.

• Large loading chamber: The 6-metre chamber provides room for bulky material within the machine’s loading limits.

• 800-ton shearing force: Supports demanding scrap cutting applications, with suitability determined by steel grade, section dimensions, and loading arrangement.

• PLC-controlled sequence: Coordinates machine movements for repeatable operation.

• Application-based configuration: Control components and output dimensions can be discussed according to site requirements.

WANSHIDA draws on 40 years of manufacturing experience to support equipment selection and customization through its factory and engineering team.

Specifications

Cutting capacity depends on material grade and operating conditions. Cutting frequency does not represent hourly production capacity.

Application

Typical applications include:

• Scrap yards preparing sorted steel for shipment.

• Steel fabrication plants processing suitable production offcuts.

• Recycling facilities handling bulky ferrous scrap.

• Demolition scrap processors handling prepared steel sections.

Material suitability should be checked before selection, particularly for thick, hardened, or high-strength steel.

How It Works

Scrap is loaded into the chamber and hydraulically compressed to reduce its loose volume. The machine then feeds the compressed material into the shearing stage for cutting. PLC control coordinates these movements according to the configured operating sequence.

Output dimensions and discharge arrangements should be confirmed against the intended downstream process.

How To Choose

Provide scrap photos, material grades, maximum section dimensions, and required hourly output. Also confirm the electrical supply, installation space, foundation requirements, and loading equipment.

The 315 kW motor rating is an essential planning parameter; supply capacity and starting requirements require a separate electrical assessment.

FAQ

Can it process every type of heavy steel scrap?

No. Suitability depends on steel grade, thickness, shape, and feeding conditions. Send representative material details for engineering review.

What hourly capacity can I expect?

Capacity varies with bulk density, loading efficiency, and cutting length. The 3–4 cuts/min figure alone cannot establish tonnes per hour.

Does 800 tons refer to both cutting and compression force?

The stated figure refers to shearing force. Compression cylinder forces should be confirmed separately in the technical proposal.

Can the machine work with our site’s power supply?

Site voltage, frequency, available capacity, and starting conditions must be checked before configuration.

What support is available after delivery?

WANSHIDA provides operating documentation, remote technical guidance, and spare parts support. On-site installation or training can be arranged separately when required.
