Heavy-Duty 2000KN Metal Baler with 700 × 700mm Bale and Manual Control

Heavy-Duty 2000KN Metal Baler with 700 × 700mm Bale and Manual Control

Product Overview

The Y83Q-200 hydraulic metal baler is designed for recycling businesses that need to control the hidden costs of loose scrap metal. Instead of focusing only on compression force, this machine helps improve the entire material flow—from scrap collection and temporary storage to truck loading and furnace feeding.

Equipped with 2000kN nominal force, a 1800 × 700 × 700mm compression chamber and a 30kW motor, the Y83Q-200 processes approximately 1800–2500kg of scrap per hour. It compresses loose metal into dense bales with a 700 × 700mm cross-section, making each batch easier to count, stack, transport and resell.

Its forward-out discharge system and manual valve control provide a practical combination of operational flexibility, easy maintenance and stable performance.

Cause

The value of scrap metal is often reduced by inefficient handling rather than by the material itself. Loose scrap contains large air gaps and irregular shapes, creating several operating expenses:

• Trucks reach their volume limit before reaching the allowable weight
• Scrap occupies valuable yard and warehouse space
• Forklifts require more trips to move the same material
• Loose metal is difficult to stack and manage
• Furnace feeding becomes slow and inconsistent
• Material inventory is harder to measure
• Scattered scrap increases workplace safety risks

For recycling companies processing metal offcuts, aluminum profiles, thin steel sheets or dismantled metal parts, these expenses accumulate every day.

Solution

The Y83Q-200 metal baling press converts irregular scrap into standardized, high-density bales. With a bale density of more than 1800kg/m³ under suitable material conditions, the machine reduces empty space inside the scrap and increases the amount of metal that can be stored or transported in a given area.

The resulting bales offer several commercial benefits:

• Better utilization of trucks and containers
• Lower handling cost per ton of scrap
• More organized storage and inventory management
• Easier forklift and crane operation
• Faster loading and unloading
• More consistent furnace charging
• Improved resale presentation
• Reduced risk from scattered, sharp-edged scrap

The manual valve system allows operators to control the compression process according to different scrap conditions. This is especially useful when a recycling facility handles mixed materials with changing shapes and bulk densities.

Specifications

Production capacity and bale density depend on scrap type, material thickness, feeding efficiency and operating conditions.

Application

The Y83Q-200 is suitable for businesses that regularly collect or process loose metal waste, including:

• Scrap metal recycling yards
• Steel processing facilities
• Aluminum profile plants
• Automotive dismantling centers
• Metal fabrication workshops
• Foundries and smelting plants
• Warehouses handling recyclable metal
• Waste management and resource recovery companies

Typical materials include light scrap steel, aluminum profiles, stamping offcuts, thin steel plates, stainless steel scrap, metal cans, copper scrap and mixed non-ferrous metals.

How It Works

Loose scrap is loaded into the compression chamber. The chamber cover and hydraulic cylinders compress the material from different directions, reducing air gaps and forming a dense rectangular bale.

After the compression process is completed, the forward-out discharge mechanism pushes the finished bale from the chamber. The operator can then move it using a forklift, crane or other handling equipment.

The manual valve system gives the operator direct control over every movement, making it easier to adjust the process when the size or shape of the scrap changes.

How To Choose

The Y83Q-200 is a suitable option when your required capacity is approximately 1.8–2.5 tons per hour and a 700 × 700mm bale cross-section fits your storage, transport or furnace requirements.

Before selecting the machine, consider:

• Daily scrap volume
• Material type and thickness
• Original bulk density
• Required finished bale density
• Available loading equipment
• Local power supply
• Preferred operating method
• Truck, container or furnace dimensions

For an accurate model recommendation, provide material photos, maximum scrap dimensions, thickness and expected daily output.

FAQ

How can this metal baler reduce transportation costs?

It removes air gaps from loose scrap and produces compact bales. This allows more metal to be loaded within the limited space of a truck or container.

Can the machine process mixed metal scrap?

Yes, it can process various light ferrous and non-ferrous materials. However, very thick, oversized or high-strength scrap should be checked before production.

Why does the machine use manual valve control?

Manual valve control is simple, reliable and easy to maintain. It also allows the operator to respond flexibly when processing scrap with different shapes and densities.

What equipment is needed to load and remove the material?

Scrap can be loaded manually or with a grab, excavator or conveyor, depending on the production volume. Finished bales can normally be handled by forklift or crane.

What information is required before ordering?

Please provide scrap photos, material type, maximum thickness, hourly or daily capacity, local voltage and preferred bale size. These details help determine whether the Y83Q-200 is the correct model.
