Hydraulic Scrap Metal Baler for Waste Baling Press

The horizontal scrap metal baler (also called waste iron baler, cans baling machine, waste steel baling machine, and aluminum cans baler) is mainly used to compact various metal scraps, steel shavings, scrap steel, scrap aluminum, scrap copper, etc. into dense scrap metal bales for recycling and creating profits.

The final product’s shape can be cylindrical, rectangular, cube, hexagonal, and other multi-prism shapes. The block sizes are various, such as 30*30cm, 35*35cm, 40*40cm, etc.

This metal compactor can use the electric motor or a diesel engine as power, working with the hydraulic system. Its hydraulic pressure can be adjusted according to the actual baling requirements of a certain kind of material.

Due to its high efficiency, customization, and less maintenance, our metal baling machine is hot-selling in foreign countries, such as Malaysia, Kuwait, the Philippines, Afghanistan and so on. If you’re interested, welcome to contact us at any time!

What is a scrap metal baler?

This scrap metal compactor can be widely used in medium-sized or large metal resources recycling plants and metal products manufacturing factories.

The hydraulic scrap baling press machine uses multi-strength from its hydraulic system to press metal wastes of irregular shapes and sizes into compact columns. After baling, these scrap metal bales are easy to transport and store in the bins as well as saving much land occupied.

Applications of hydraulic scrap baling press

The scrap iron baler can press various waste metal products under normal conditions. The materials are:

• Ferrous metal scrap
  • Scrap iron and scrap steel
  • Iron sheets and light/thin iron materials
  • Pig iron blocks
  • Car shells and automobile frames
  • Iron barrels and used bicycles
• Non-ferrous metal scrap
  • Scrap copper blocks
  • Scrap aluminum flakes
  • Aluminum alloy profiles
• Paint buckets & aluminum cans
  • Paint buckets
  • Beer cans and beverage cans
  • Tin cans
• Light construction waste
  • Color steel tiles
  • Thin iron sheets

The scrap metal baler is suitable for various large, medium, and small steel mills, the waste metal recycling processing industry, and the non-ferrous metal smelting industry. The final product shape can be cubes, cylinders, octagons, rectangles, hexagonal, etc.

Advantages of the hydraulic scrap metal baler

1. Great scrap metal baler design, space-saving, and more convenient transportation.
2. The metal scrap after baling is denser and can be sold at a higher price.
3. Our metal scrap baling press can be used for scrap, which can generate income again for the factory.
4. There are two kinds of operating systems, one is fully automatic and the other is manual operation (operation is by hand control lever).
5. The plate can be added to the machine based on the original so that the machine is more wear-resistant, longer service life.
6. You can also add the blades, so more convenient to pack large materials.

How does the metal scrap baling press work?

Metal materials have the property of plastic deformation. The hydraulic pressure of the horizontal metal baler can give the metal materials sufficient external force that can aggregate and produce permanent deformation, thereby forming a compact solid block.

When the hydraulic scrap baling press is working, we can use the grab machine to place the materials to be packed into the box of the packer. Next, open the machine’s hydraulic cylinder control valve. The hydraulic metal baler itself has three hydraulic pressures accumulating on each other, which can quickly compress metal materials into columns.

Maintenance tips of the scrap metal baler

• Every week, clean the scraps or dirt in the bin of the metal baler.
• Once a month, clean and lubricate the slide, middle knife, and front ejector.
• Add lubricant to all bearings of the machine every three months.
• Regularly replenish the hydraulic oil in the oil tank of the metal baler once every two years.
• Every time you add hydraulic oil, it should be appropriate. Remember not to add too much, so as to avoid malfunction of the microswitch due to oil immersion.
