800 Ton Scrap Box Shear with PLC Automatic Control and 2600 × 1600 mm Feed Opening for Heavy-Duty Metal Recycling

800 Ton Scrap Box Shear for Recycling Yards and Steel Scrap Processing

Product Overview

When recycling plants and scrap yards need to process oversized steel scrap, long offcuts, and mixed metal waste efficiently, the QSW-800 hydraulic scrap box shear offers a practical heavy-duty solution. This equipment is engineered for large-volume scrap reduction with 800-ton class shearing power, a large feed opening, and automatic hydraulic cutting control, making it suitable for industrial recycling environments that require both productivity and handling convenience.

Applications

The QSW-800 is suitable for:

• Scrap collection and processing stations
• Steel structure fabrication workshops
• Demolition scrap recycling
• Shipbreaking or heavy metal dismantling support lines
• Rebar and profile scrap cutting
• Steel mill scrap pre-treatment areas

For companies dealing with a mix of profiles, long bars, and irregular heavy scrap, this machine supports more organized downstream loading, transport, and storage.

Core Advantages

• Large chamber for mixed scrap loading
  The 2600 × 1600 mm feeding port supports larger and less uniform material input.
• High force for heavy sections
  With 4000KN × 2 shearing thrust, the machine is built for demanding cutting work.
• Useful for profile steel
  It can process materials such as angle steel 250 × 250 × 15 mm and I-beam 340 × 132 × 15 mm within the stated range.
• Suitable for continuous industrial work
  The output of 9–12 t/h supports active recycling operations.
• Simplified operation
  PLC automatic control and remote control reduce dependence on constant manual intervention.

How It Works

Scrap metal is loaded into the feed box, where the clamping cylinder secures and positions the material. The hydraulic shear then cuts the material into shorter sections. Because the machine uses automatic PLC control, the cycle can be repeated with more consistent timing and less operator fatigue. This makes it especially useful in yards where daily scrap input varies in shape and size.

• PLC automatic control with remote control
• Machine dimensions 6300 × 2750 × 2650 mm

How To Choose

This machine is a good choice if your plant faces one or more of these conditions:

• Scrap is too large for direct loading or shipping
• Material includes structural sections and heavy steel
• Output requirements are above what small shears can handle
• Operators need simpler control and less manual cycle coordination
• You want one machine that can process mixed feedstock rather than highly uniform scrap only

It is particularly suitable for facilities upgrading from manual or low-capacity cutting systems.

What Problem It Solves

In many recycling yards, oversized metal scrap creates storage congestion, transport inefficiency, and furnace feeding limitations. Long or bulky scrap is difficult to stack, ship, or charge. The QSW-800 helps solve these issues by cutting large scrap into shorter, more manageable sections, improving yard flow and preparing material for the next processing stage.
