Saudi scrap volumes can swing sharply due to project cycles and industrial maintenance schedules. During high inbound weeks, the yards that perform best are the ones with repeatable routines: predictable cutting output, clean staging, and fast loading. Instead of relying on manual sorting and reactive cutting, more operators are investing in a heavy-duty scrap cutting shear that anchors the workflow and prevents backlog.
The customer needed to handle peaks without chaos:
Backlog when oversize scrap piled up faster than it could be sized
Loading delays due to inconsistent output lengths
Too many internal moves, reducing productive machine hours
They wanted a guillotine shear for scrap that makes output predictable.
Jiangsu Wanshida Hydraulic Machinery Co., Ltd. supplied 1 set Y43L-8000 (Q43L-8000L) heavy-duty guillotine shear with a long loading room and controlled holding to reduce “touches per ton.” The customer standardized the routine:
Feed → Hold → Cut → Discharge → Stack → Load, using consistent output to keep trucks moving even during peak periods.
| Item | Specification (Y43L-8000 / Q43L-8000L) |
|---|---|
| Loading room size | 8000 × 1950 × 900 mm |
| Cutting width / min mouth | 2000 / 500 mm |
| Cutting frequency | 3 times/min (theory) |
| Cutting force | 800-ton class, 2 cutting cylinders |
| System pressure | 27.5 MPa |
| Motor power | 225 kW, 6 motors |
| Pump sets | 6 sets, 250 ml/r |
| Cooling package | Oil cooler + water tower + cycle water pump |
| Weight | ~92,000 kg |
They reported fewer peak-day bottlenecks and more stable dispatch planning. Output piles became easier to stage and load, and internal traffic improved because oversize scrap was processed earlier in the cycle rather than blocking lanes.
When inbound volume spikes, the advantage goes to yards with stable routines. A guillotine shear for scrap helps stabilize output size and protect dispatch schedules during high-volume periods.
Q1: How do you reduce backlog during peak inbound weeks?
Standardize the cut-and-load routine and process oversize scrap early to prevent lane blockage.
Q2: What affects actual throughput most?
Feeding method, staging discipline, and scrap mix—capacity is always material-dependent.
Q3: What should be confirmed for power and utilities?
Voltage/frequency, available power capacity, and cooling water arrangement.
CTA: Send your peak-week tonnage, scrap size range, and feeding method. We’ll recommend a guillotine shear solution that keeps dispatch stable.
