Case Study (Saudi Arabia) — Safety & Control: Reducing Manual Intervention Around the Cutting Zone

Case Study (Saudi Arabia) — Safety & Control: Reducing Manual Intervention Around the Cutting Zone

2026-03-02

1) Market Background 

As Saudi recycling sites scale, safety and control become productivity drivers. Manual repositioning near cutting zones increases risk and slows cycles. The modern approach is to centralize cutting into a controlled station: stable holding, predictable discharge, and organized staging. This trend supports wider adoption of an industrial guillotine shear that can process heavy scrap consistently with fewer “operator-dependent” adjustments.

2) Customer & Application Scenario 

The customer wanted to reduce:

  • Frequent manual repositioning and “trial cuts”

  • Irregular output piles that were hard to stage safely

  • Cutting-zone congestion during peak inbound days
    They needed a scrap shear for steel that improves control and repeatability.

3) Our Solution (Workflow + Selection Logic)

Jiangsu Wanshida Hydraulic Machinery Co., Ltd. supplied 1 set Y43L-8000 (Q43L-8000L) hydraulic guillotine shear machine with strong holding and side support cylinders. These features stabilize material during cutting, reducing the need for repeated repositioning. The yard standardized the process:
Feed → Hold/Support → Cut → Discharge → Stack
, improving zone discipline and reducing risk linked to chaotic staging.

4) Product Specification Table

Item Specification (Y43L-8000 / Q43L-8000L)
Holding system Holding 1100 kN ×2 + Side 750 kN ×2
Cutting system 800-ton class cutting force, 2 cylinders
Cutting width / min mouth 2000 / 500 mm
Cutting angle
System pressure 27.5 MPa
Loading room 8000 × 1950 × 900 mm
Max scrap examples Ø125 round; 120×120 square; 60×1700 plate
Power 225 kW, motors 45 kW × 6
Weight ~92,000 kg

5) Customer Feedback (Operational Results)

They reported fewer interruptions caused by unstable pieces and less time spent “fixing” piles. Output became easier to stage safely and load without last-minute adjustments. Dispatch became more predictable because cutting output was steadier.

6) Key Takeaway

A hydraulic guillotine shear machine improves safety and throughput when it reduces manual intervention and turns cutting into a controlled routine.

7) FAQ (3)

Q1: How does strong holding improve safety?
It stabilizes the scrap during cutting and reduces repositioning near the blade area.
Q2: What determines real cutting rhythm?
Feeding consistency, holding stability, and a clean staging layout—more than raw tonnage alone.
Q3: What should be included in site planning?
Clear feed lane, discharge zone, stacking space, and safe separation from traffic lanes.

 

CTA: Share your yard layout and main scrap shapes. We’ll recommend a safe, controlled cutting workflow with the right shear model.
