As scrap streams diversify, productivity loss often comes from exceptions: awkward shapes, beams, thick bundles, and mixed batches that require extra moves. Serbia yards expanding volume increasingly choose equipment that reduces exceptions and makes output predictable. A strong scrap metal shearing equipment setup reduces rework, improves safety, and keeps throughput stable when scrap mix changes.
The customer faced:
Too many “problem pieces” requiring secondary cutting
Throughput instability when batches changed
Congestion around the cutting station during peak intake
Jiangsu Wanshida Hydraulic Machinery Co., Ltd. provided the Q43W-4000A3 container type hydraulic shear to centralize cutting. The wide feeding mouth supports practical loading, and strong holding reduces repositioning. With 3–4 cuts/min and 4–6 t/h, the scrap processing shear maintained rhythm across mixed material. That repeatability reduced exceptions and improved yard discipline.
| Item | Specification |
|---|---|
| Product | Q43W-4000A3 Container Scrap Metal Shear |
| Cutting force | 400 ton class (Cutting cylinders: 2000×2 kN, 2 pcs, stroke 950 mm) |
| Hold cylinder | 1000 kN (100 ton), stroke 800 mm |
| Speed-up cylinder | 500 kN (50 ton), stroke 970 mm |
| Feeding mouth (L×W) | 3200 × 2400 mm |
| Output mouth (W×H) | 1400 × 400 mm |
| Blade length | 1400 mm |
| Cutting speed | 3–4 times/min |
| Capacity | 4–6 t/h |
| Max system pressure | 25.0 MPa |
| Cooling | Air cooling system |
| Motors | 37 kW × 2 sets, 1480 r/min |
| Pumps | HY160Y-RP × 2 sets, 160 ml/r, 31.5 MPa |
| Power supply | 380V / 50Hz (customizable) |
| Total power | ~85.5 kW (heating power 9 kW) |
| Overall size (L×W×H) | 6650 × 2500 × 2920 mm |
| Total weight | ~20.5 ton |
| Typical cuttable scrap |
Square 100×100; Angle 180×180×15 (3 pcs); Round Φ110; I-beam 320×132×11.5; Plate 30×450; Channel 320×90×10 |
They reported fewer secondary cuts, cleaner piles, and steadier output even when feedstock changed. The cutting station stopped being a “chaos point” and became a predictable production step.
For mixed heavy scrap, a heavy duty scrap shear creates value by reducing exceptions and stabilizing daily throughput.
Q1: What scrap shapes is this model typically used for?
Common shapes include plate, angle, round, square, channel, and I-beam within defined ranges.
Q2: Why does feeding mouth size matter?
A wider mouth reduces repositioning time and improves practicality for awkward pieces.
Q3: How do you reduce secondary cutting?
Match holding force and cutting rhythm to your scrap mix, then set a consistent staging process.
CTA: Tell us your main scrap shapes and max sizes. We’ll advise the best cutting workflow and configuration.
