Hydraulic Scrap Metal Compress Baling Press Machine

The machine is suitable for non-ferrous and ferrous scrap including brass, copper, aluminum, stainless steel and steel. Performance varies by material—the rated production capacity (see next FAQ) is measured on steel.

Rated production capacity is approximately 1–1.5 tonnes per hour for steel. Actual throughput depends on material type, feed size, operator skill and pre-processing.

Bale cross-section is W250 × H250 mm. Press box internal dimensions are L1200 × W700 × H550 mm, so bale length and total bale volume depend on how many compression strokes or cycles are used up to that press box length.

Motor power is 15 kW. Specific electrical voltage and phasing are not listed—please contact the supplier to confirm the electrical configuration required for your region.

Machine weight is 5,800 kg (approx. 5.8 tonnes). The listed port of dispatch is Shanghai.

Oil tank volume is 400 L. The specification notes approximately two 68# hydraulic oil buckets are required and the oil is to be provided by the buyer. Confirm the exact hydraulic oil grade and fill procedure with the supplier.

Nominal force is 1,300 kN. The shear blade is made of alloy shear steel T8.

Operation uses a manual valve system. This is a semi-manual operation method—an operator controls the hydraulic valves to run press cycles.

Scrap should be sorted by material, free of excessive non-metal attachments, and cut/downsized so pieces fit within the press box dimensions (L1200 × W700 × H550 mm). Pre-baling or flattening large items will improve throughput and bale uniformity.

Regular maintenance includes checking hydraulic oil level and quality, inspecting hoses and seals for leaks, greasing moving parts, and monitoring blade wear. Blade replacement intervals depend on usage and material abrasiveness—contact the supplier for recommended service intervals and genuine replacement parts.

Operate only with trained personnel. Use appropriate PPE (gloves, eye protection, steel-toe boots), keep safety guards in place, follow lockout/tagout procedures during maintenance, and ensure emergency stop and safety protocols are in place per local regulations.

Because the machine weighs ~5.8 tonnes, a solid concrete foundation and suitable lifting equipment (crane/forklift rated for the weight) are required. Provide sufficient workshop space for operation and maintenance. Request installation drawings and detailed requirements from the supplier prior to delivery.

Spare parts and after-sales support are typically available—contact the supplier or dealer for details on warranty terms, spare parts pricing and lead times. The manufacturer lists a supply ability of 1,000 sets per year.

Customization options (electrical configuration, control upgrades, feed systems, etc.) are often possible. Contact the supplier with your application details to discuss modifications, quotations and lead times.

Request a formal quotation from the supplier/dealer with details on quantity, destination port, required electrical configuration and any customization. Shipping is from Shanghai; lead time depends on order size and current production schedule—contact the supplier for exact timing and shipping costs.
