Product Description
160 Ton Push-Out Hydraulic Scrap Metal Baler with 1600×1000×800 mm Chamber for Steel Scrap Recycling
The machine provides a nominal pressing force of 1600 kN, equivalent to approximately 160 tons. Its 1600×1000×800 mm compression chamber is designed to compact loose, irregular and difficult-to-store scrap steel, light-gauge metal, stamping offcuts and selected non-ferrous scrap into dense bales with a 400×400 mm cross-section.

The reference processing capacity is 2000–3000 kg/h, while the single-cycle time is stated as less than 80 seconds. The machine uses a 22 kW motor and a hydraulic push-out discharge system. After compression, the finished bale is pushed directly out of the chamber, reducing manual bale-removal work and making it easier to collect with a forklift, material handler or conveyor.

The Y83/T-160 is equipped with PLC semi-automatic control. After material loading, the control system coordinates the compression, return and bale-discharge movements, helping maintain a more consistent working cycle.

As a practical Hydraulic Scrap Metal Baling Press, Scrap Metal Baler, Hydraulic Metal Baler, Push-Out Metal Baler and Metal Recycling Baling Machine, the Y83/T-160 reduces scrap volume while improving storage utilization, transportation density, yard organization and delivery standardization.

Main specifications include:

  • Nominal force: 1600 kN, approximately 160 tons
  • Compression chamber: 1600×1000×800 mm
  • Bale cross-section: 400×400 mm
  • Bale density: above 1800 kg/m³
  • Reference capacity: 2000–3000 kg/h
  • Single-cycle time: less than 80 seconds
  • Motor power: 22 kW
  • Bale discharge: push-out
  • Operation: PLC semi-automatic control
Cause

The profitability of a scrap-metal business depends not only on purchasing and selling prices, but also on transportation, storage, handling, labor and downstream acceptance.

Many recyclers collect a substantial amount of scrap every day, yet loose material can still create significant hidden costs.

Loose Scrap Occupies Excessive Space

Light sheet scrap, plate offcuts, stamping waste, profile remnants and dismantling scrap are irregular and difficult to stack.

This may result in:

  • Rapid warehouse congestion
  • Mixing of different materials
  • Blocked operating areas
  • Additional cleaning and sorting work
  • Increased fire and safety-management pressure
Trucks Fill Before Reaching the Desired Payload

Low-density scrap often fills the available truck or container volume before reaching an efficient cargo weight.

For long-distance transportation or export operations, this can lead to:

  • Higher freight cost per ton
  • More truck movements
  • Poor container utilization
  • Longer loading time
  • Reduced trading margin
Loose Material Requires Repeated Handling

Loose scrap must be repeatedly grabbed, arranged and compacted. Small pieces may also fall during loading and transport, creating cleaning work and material loss.

Downstream Buyers Prefer Standardized Feedstock

Steel mills, foundries and smelters can often receive uniformly compressed bales more efficiently.

Regular bales are easier to:

  • Weigh
  • Count
  • Stack
  • Transport
  • Prepare for furnace charging
  • Manage in inventory
Manual Compaction Is Inconsistent

Using loaders, excavators or manual labor to compact scrap inside a truck cannot consistently produce bales with controlled dimensions and density.

Solution

The Y83/T-160 hydraulic metal baler uses hydraulic compression to reduce the volume of loose metal scrap and form bales with an approximate 400×400 mm cross-section.

After scrap is loaded into the 1600×1000×800 mm chamber, the PLC control system coordinates the hydraulic movements for pre-compression, shaping and final pressing.

Once compression is complete, the hydraulic pusher moves the bale out of the chamber, allowing the machine to begin the next cycle.

This process can help customers:

Reduce Scrap Volume

Hydraulic compression removes internal voids and increases bulk density, reducing storage-space requirements.

Improve Transportation Utilization

Regular bales can be arranged more efficiently inside trucks and containers.

Improve Yard Management

Different metal categories can be baled, identified and stored separately.

Support Continuous Processing

The reference cycle time of less than 80 seconds, combined with PLC semi-automatic control, can provide stable repetitive operation.

Reduce Manual Bale Removal

The push-out discharge system moves the finished bale directly out of the compression chamber.

Standardize Scrap Delivery

A 400×400 mm bale cross-section and a reference density above 1800 kg/m³ can support more consistent delivery and inventory procedures.

Capacity Notice

The stated 2000–3000 kg/h is a reference processing capacity.

Actual output depends on:

  • Scrap type
  • Original bulk density
  • Loading weight per cycle
  • Material dimensions
  • Manual or mechanical loading speed
  • Operator experience
  • Required bale density
  • Hydraulic-oil temperature
  • Continuous operating time
Bale-Density Notice

The stated density above 1800 kg/m³ is a reference figure. Actual bale density varies according to material type, contamination, spring-back and compression conditions.

Scrap steel, light steel sheet, aluminum scrap and stainless-steel offcuts will not produce identical bale densities.

Product Advantages
160-Ton Nominal Pressing Force

The 1600 kN hydraulic force is suitable for small and medium scrap steel, sheet offcuts, stamping waste and light metal scrap.

1600×1000×800 mm Chamber

The relatively large compression chamber can receive a practical volume of loose scrap and reduce excessive pre-cutting.

400×400 mm Bale Cross-Section

The uniform cross-section supports organized stacking, transportation, weighing and downstream handling.

Bale Density Above 1800 kg/m³

Higher-density bales help reduce space loss during storage and transportation.

Reference Capacity of 2–3 Tons per Hour

The machine is suitable for small and medium recycling businesses with a stable scrap supply.

Cycle Time Below 80 Seconds

The relatively short cycle supports repeated processing, although actual production still depends on loading and bale-handling speed.

22 kW Motor Power

The installed power is moderate compared with larger heavy-duty balers, simplifying power-distribution planning for many facilities.

PLC Semi-Automatic Control

The PLC coordinates the hydraulic movements and improves cycle consistency.

Push-Out Bale Discharge

The hydraulic pusher discharges the bale directly from the chamber, simplifying downstream collection.

Practical Maintenance Structure

The hydraulic cylinders, pump unit, valves and electrical controls use conventional industrial structures that support routine inspection and servicing.

Application
Scrap Recycling Yards

For compressing light scrap steel, plate offcuts, short rebar, used profiles and machinery-dismantling scrap.

Metal-Processing Plants

For handling metal offcuts generated during stamping, cutting, bending and machining.

Automotive-Component Manufacturers

For compacting stamping waste, sheet edges and production-line scrap.

Aluminum and Non-Ferrous Scrap Recyclers

After proper sorting, the machine may process selected aluminum offcuts, copper scrap and other non-ferrous materials. Bale density must be evaluated according to the material.

Foundries and Smelting Facilities

For producing more regular furnace-feed bales.

Export-Oriented Scrap Companies

Baling can improve container-space utilization and reduce loose-material problems during transportation.

Recycling Centers

The baler can work with material handlers, conveyors, shears and sorting equipment as part of a complete scrap-processing system.

How It Works
Step 1: Material Sorting

Scrap should be separated by material type, with plastic, rubber, soil and other contaminants removed where possible.

Step 2: Loading the Compression Chamber

The operator or material handler loads scrap into the 1600×1000×800 mm chamber.

Loading quantity should be controlled according to material density and machine requirements.

Step 3: Starting the PLC Cycle

The operator starts the working sequence through the control panel. The PLC coordinates the hydraulic movements.

Step 4: Pre-Compression and Shaping

The compression mechanisms concentrate and shape the loose scrap inside the chamber.

Step 5: Final Compression

The hydraulic system applies a nominal force of 1600 kN and forms a dense bale with an approximate 400×400 mm cross-section.

Step 6: Pressure Holding and Return

After reaching the set pressure or stroke, the system completes the pressure-holding stage and returns the relevant cylinders.

Step 7: Push-Out Bale Discharge

The hydraulic pusher moves the finished bale out of the compression chamber.

Step 8: Bale Handling

The bale can be collected using a forklift, material handler, loader or conveyor according to its actual weight.

How To Choose
1. Confirm the Scrap Type

Customers should identify whether the main material is:

  • Ordinary scrap steel
  • Light steel sheet
  • Stamping waste
  • Short rebar
  • Profile offcuts
  • Aluminum scrap
  • Stainless-steel offcuts
  • Copper or other non-ferrous scrap

Material strength, spring-back and bulk density directly affect bale density and throughput.

2. Provide Maximum Scrap Dimensions

Customers should provide:

  • Maximum length
  • Maximum width
  • Maximum thickness
  • Whether long bars or pipes are present
  • Whether pre-cutting is required
  • Material photos and videos

The chamber dimensions do not mean that every rigid item close to the chamber size can be loaded without preparation.

3. Confirm the Required Hourly Capacity

The Y83/T-160 has a reference capacity of 2–3 tons per hour, but customers should also specify:

  • Daily processing volume
  • Working hours per day
  • Monthly scrap quantity
  • Loading method
  • Whether continuous production is required
  • Main material percentages
4. Confirm Bale Length and Weight Requirements

The source data confirms only a 400×400 mm bale cross-section. It does not state a fixed bale length or bale weight.

Where the downstream buyer has specific requirements, the actual machine stroke and control solution should be confirmed before production.

5. Confirm Bale-Handling Equipment

Sufficient space should be reserved for bale discharge and collection.

The customer should confirm whether the site has:

  • Forklift
  • Material handler
  • Loader
  • Conveyor
  • Bale-receiving platform
6. Confirm the Local Power Supply

The machine uses a 22 kW motor. Customers should provide:

  • Operating voltage
  • Three-phase power
  • Frequency
  • Available electrical capacity
  • Cable specification
  • Circuit-breaker and protection requirements

The electrical configuration should be confirmed according to local standards.

7. Consider Future Volume

The machine should not be selected only for the current minimum requirement. If scrap volume is expected to increase significantly, additional capacity should be reserved.
