A scrap metal baler is a heavy-duty industrial machine designed to compress and compact scrap metal into dense, manageable bales for easier storage, transportation, and recycling. These machines are commonly used in scrapyards, recycling facilities, manufacturing plants, and waste management operations.

Key Features of a Scrap Metal Baler:

1. High Compression Force: Capable of exerting pressures ranging from 50 to 200 tons or more, depending on the model.

2. Bale Formation: Compresses loose scrap (like aluminum cans, steel sheets, car parts, etc.) into uniform rectangular bales.

3. Automated Operation: Many modern balers include automated systems for feeding, compression, and baling wire tying.

4. Material Compatibility: Designed for various ferrous (iron/steel) and non-ferrous (aluminum, copper, brass) metals.

5. Durability: Built with high-strength steel and wear-resistant components to withstand harsh conditions.

6. Safety Features: Includes emergency stop buttons, safety guards, and interlocks to prevent accidents.

Types of Scrap Metal Balers:

1. Horizontal Baler

- Most common type.

- Scrap fed horizontally into the chamber.

- Ideal for large volumes and continuous operation.

- Often used in high-capacity recycling centers.

2. Vertical Baler

- Material is loaded from the top.

- Takes up less floor space.

- Suitable for smaller operations or limited-space environments.

3. Hydraulic vs. Electric

- Hydraulic balers offer higher force and are more powerful.

- Electric balers are quieter, require less maintenance, and are more energy-efficient.

Benefits of Using a Scrap Metal Baler:

- Increases recycling efficiency by reducing volume by up to 80%.

- Lowers transportation and storage costs.

- Improves material value due to denser, cleaner bales.

- Reduces environmental impact by minimizing landfill use.

- Enhances workplace safety by organizing loose scrap.

Common Applications:

- Recycling centers

- Auto dismantling yards

- Manufacturing waste streams

- Construction debris processing

- Municipal recycling programs

Maintenance Tips:

- Regular lubrication of moving parts.

- Inspection of hydraulic systems and hoses.

- Checking wear on compression plates and cutting blades.

- Keeping the machine clean and free of debris.

If you're considering purchasing or operating a scrap metal baler, it's important to assess your scrap volume, types of metal processed, available space, and budget. Leading manufacturers include Tata Steel, Schenck Process, Husky, Worthington, and Cinmac.

FAQ

> What is output capacity of Scrap Metal Compactor Machine Japan? 

The machine capacity ranges from 300kg per hour to 3000kg per hour, different models has differnt capacity, small models has small output capacity, and bigger one has big capacity accordingly.    

> What is the electricity supply of  Scrap metal Baler In Japan needed, single or three phase? 

The electricity supply of the machine is 3 phases, for the voltage, we can customzie the motor voltage per your local voltgage.    

> What is pump flow of Aluminum Cans Baling? 

The pump flow of the baler machine is diffent depending on different models, in a word, small models baler machine will have small pump flow, and bigger baler will use bigger pump flow accordingly.    

> How to install Hydraulic Scrap metal Press Machine? 

For small baler machine, we will not disassemble it when shipping, you just need to add hydraulic oil and connect to the electrical power, then operate per user manual, that is Ok, for bigger one, we will make detail marks when disassembling the machine, you just only need to assemble the machine per marks, that is alright; and you can contact with our technical team when you have any problems.    

> Does 2 Ram Baler Scrap Metal Press machine have PLC control? 

Yes, the machine has PLC automatic control, easy to operate and more efficient, and also has manual control, easy to debug and maintain the baler machine.    

> What is warranty time of the Metal Sorting Baling Scrap Yard? 

The warranty time of the baler machine is 12 months normally, also can you can pay extra fees for more times such as 24 months or 36 months, within the warranty time, we are responsible for the baler machine except the spare parts.    

> Do you provide video support of Aluminium Scrap Horizontal Baling Machine? 

Yes, of course, we are providing the video support which includes installing the baler machine, testing and operating the machine, we also can guide you to replace parts and maintenance via video call.    

> What is the weight of 630Ton Heavy Duty  metal Scrap Recycling Baler?
