As India’s steel recycling industry continues to expand, recycling plants are facing increasing pressure to process large volumes of heavy scrap such as H-beams, thick rebar, and structural steel. Traditional cutting methods often struggle with low efficiency, high labor costs, and inconsistent cutting results.

One Indian recycling plant handling mixed heavy steel scrap required a reliable solution capable of continuous operation and stable cutting performance. Manual and small-capacity machines could no longer meet their daily processing demand.
To address this challenge, we supplied an 800-ton hydraulic gantry shear designed for heavy-duty scrap processing. The machine features a shear force of 8000 kN, a heavy-duty hydraulic system, and a PLC-controlled automatic operation, allowing safe and efficient cutting of oversized steel materials.
After installation, the customer reported a significant increase in cutting efficiency, reduced dependence on manual labor, and smoother daily operations.
Key technical parameters include a cutting force of 800 tons, blade length suitable for large profiles, and high-power hydraulic drive, making it a reliable solution for India’s growing scrap recycling sector.
