This horizontal scrap metal shear is designed with a shearing force of 500 tons and features a 1400 mm blade length for heavy-duty cutting applications. It can process materials with a maximum cutting capacity of 1400 * 600 mm, making it suitable for bulky and high-density scrap.

The machine operates at a cutting frequency of 3–4 cycles per minute, ensuring efficient and continuous processing. Powered by a 110 kW motor, it delivers stable and reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.

The horizontal scrap metal shear operates through a hydraulic system that drives the cutting blade in a horizontal motion. Scrap materials are fed into the compression chamber, where they are positioned and compacted before cutting.

The hydraulic cylinder then pushes the blade forward, applying strong force to shear the material. After each cutting cycle, the blade retracts automatically, allowing continuous feeding and processing.

This design enables smooth workflow, high efficiency, and stable operation, making it ideal for automated or semi-automated recycling systems.

The machine adopts a horizontal box-type structure that integrates feeding, compression, and cutting functions into a single system. The heavy-duty steel frame ensures stability and durability during continuous operation.

The hydraulic system includes high-performance pumps, valves, and cylinders, delivering consistent pressure and efficient energy transfer. The cutting system uses high-strength alloy blades for long service life.

The structure is optimized for industrial use, ensuring easy maintenance and long-term reliability.
