Jiangsu Wanshida Hydraulic Machinery Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce the successful export of a Y83-2500 Fully Automatic Hydraulic Metal Baler to a major scrap recycling company in Sri Lanka.
This heavy-duty baler is equipped with two 30 kW motors, a fully automatic PLC control system, a large 2000*1400*900 mm compressing chamber, and produces high-density 500*500 mm metal bales—perfectly meeting the customer’s high-volume scrap handling needs.

Sri Lanka’s scrap metal recycling industry has rapidly expanded in recent years, especially in steel, automotive dismantling, shipyard recycling, and fabrication sectors.
However, many recyclers still struggle with:

• Manual baling with unstable bale size and low density
• High labor cost and slow processing speed
• Difficulty storing loose scrap and managing workshop space
• Low resale value due to inconsistent bale quality

The customer was looking for a fully automatic, high-pressure, stable and cost-saving solution—and Wanshida’s Y83-2500 proved to be the ideal answer.

• Nominal Force: 2500 kN
• Compressing Chamber: 2000 * 1400 * 900 mm
• Bale Size: 500 * 500 mm (high-density compact bales)
• Main Power: 2 * 30 kW motors
• Operation Mode: PLC full automatic control
• Discharging Type: Push-out

• High-Pressure Compression
  Produces consistent, high-density 500*500 mm bales suitable for export and furnace feeding.
• Fully Automatic PLC Control
  From feeding → compressing → baling → discharging, everything is automated, minimizing labor demand.
• High Efficiency for Large Scrap Yards
  Dual 30 kW motors provide strong, stable power for continuous heavy-duty operation.
• Space Optimization
  Reduces loose scrap volume by over 80%, keeping the yard clean and organized.
• Higher Resale Value
  Customers receive significantly better prices for standardized 500*500 mm bales.

Wanshida customized the solution according to the customer's material types—steel scrap, iron scrap, stamping scrap, and mixed light scrap commonly found in Sri Lankan yards.

The machine offers:

• Stable operation even in hot tropical climates
• Simple maintenance and user-friendly controls
• Compatibility with forklift, conveyor, and magnet feeding systems
• Heavy-duty frame suitable for continuous high-load working conditions

After on-site testing, the customer praised both the bale density and machine efficiency.

After commissioning, the Sri Lankan customer commented:

“The Y83-2500 is powerful and extremely stable.
Our daily output has doubled, and the bale quality is excellent.
The fully automatic system saves us a lot of labor and improves our overall productivity."

This successful cooperation enhances Wanshida’s presence in the South Asian market.
