Product Specification

1600 kN Hydraulic Scrap Metal Baler PLC Controlled For Steel And Aluminum Scrap 400×400 mm Bale Size

1. Product Description

1.1 Product Positioning

The Y83-160 scrap metal baler is designed for compressing loose metal scrap into compact bales in small to medium recycling operations. It is suitable for handling steel scrap, aluminum scrap, and mixed light metal waste.

This model is widely used in scrap yards, recycling plants, and metal processing workshops where scrap materials are generated continuously and require efficient storage and transportation.

1.2 Technical Specifications

1.3 Typical Applications

1. Scrap Yard Metal Compression
Loose scrap such as steel sheets, aluminum scrap, and iron waste occupies large space. The baler compresses materials into dense bales for easier storage.

2. Recycling Plant Processing
Mixed scrap materials are irregular and difficult to transport efficiently. The machine reduces volume and improves handling.

3. Manufacturing Workshop Scrap Handling
Production waste such as metal offcuts accumulates quickly. The baler improves workshop cleanliness and organization.

4. Aluminum Scrap Compression
Lightweight aluminum scrap has low density and large volume. The baler increases density for transport efficiency.

5. Metal Collection Stations
Collected scrap needs to be compacted before resale or transfer. The machine provides stable bale output.

1.4 Core Features Explanation

1. 1600 kN Pressing Force
The machine uses a 1600 kN hydraulic system to compress scrap into dense bales suitable for transport and recycling.

2. Compact Press Box Design
The 1600 × 1000 × 800 mm press box is suitable for medium-scale scrap feeding and operation.

3. Turn-Out Bale Discharge System
The turn-out cylinder design allows easy bale discharge, improving workflow efficiency.

4. Stable Hydraulic System
Operating at 25 MPa, the hydraulic system ensures consistent pressure output and reliable performance.

5. Simple Control System
PLC semi-automatic control provides stable operation while keeping the system easy to use.

1.5 Data-Based Performance

1. Pressing Force
1600 kN ensures sufficient compression for light and medium scrap materials.

2. Bale Size Output
400 × 400 mm bale size provides standardized handling and transport.

3. Cycle Time
160 seconds per cycle supports continuous operation in medium workloads.

4. Power Consumption
22 kW motor provides stable energy input with moderate consumption.

5. Hydraulic Stability
25 MPa working pressure ensures reliable performance during operation.

1.6 Problem Solving Value

1. Scrap Volume Problem
Loose scrap occupies excessive space and reduces storage efficiency.

2. Transport Cost Pressure
Low-density scrap increases logistics cost.

3. Workshop Disorder
Uncompressed scrap creates messy working conditions.

4. Handling Difficulty
Irregular scrap is difficult to stack and move.

5. Low Recycling Efficiency
Without compression, scrap handling becomes inefficient.

The Y83-160 scrap metal baler solves these problems by compressing loose scrap into dense bales, improving storage, transport, and recycling efficiency.
