QSW-800 Hydraulic Scrap Metal Box Shear – Automated & Stable Operation

Product Overview

The QSW-800 hydraulic scrap metal box shear is an industrial-grade machine designed for scrap recycling yards, steel mills, and metal processing facilities. It integrates dual shear cylinders with a single clamping cylinder hydraulic system and PLC automatic control with remote operation. The machine allows operators to set precise cut lengths via the touchscreen, achieving consistent shearing of light and heavy scrap metals of various shapes, facilitating re-melting and transport.

Applications

• Cutting light and heavy scrap metals into uniform lengths for recycling or re-melting
• Processing structural steel, pipes, and other irregular scrap pieces for easier handling
• Industrial handling of mixed scrap metals, both ferrous and non-ferrous
• Preparing materials for continuous industrial operations and downstream processing

Core Advantages

• Automated & Stable Operation: PLC control with remote operation and touchscreen cut length adjustment ensures repeatable and safe shearing
• High Throughput: Capable of 8–12 tons per hour, supporting continuous production
• Precision Cutting: Dual shear cylinders with a clamping cylinder guarantee uniform cut lengths across all scrap types
• Wide Material Compatibility: Handles round steel, square steel, I-beams, channel steel, pipes, and other irregular scrap shapes

How It Works

The QSW-800 applies high-pressure cutting through hydraulic shear cylinders while the clamping cylinder secures scrap materials. The PLC system automatically adjusts stroke and speed based on the desired cut length and material type, ensuring precise, uniform shearing. This minimizes manual handling, streamlines re-melting or transport, and maintains stable production under continuous operation.

FAQ

Q: How does the QSW-800 ensure safe operation?
A: The PLC-controlled system and remote operation keep operators away from moving parts, and the hydraulic system maintains stable pressure during cutting.

Q: Can the machine operate continuously for long shifts?
A: Yes. The QSW-800 is designed for long-term, continuous operation, supported by its hydraulic cylinders and 150 KW power system.

Q: How precise are the cuts for irregular scrap shapes?
A: With the clamping cylinder and adjustable cut length via touchscreen, the machine ensures uniform cut lengths for all scrap types, including pipes and structural steel.

Q: Can multiple operators control the machine safely?
A: Yes. The remote control system allows operators to manage shearing from a safe distance, improving operational safety and efficiency.

Q: Does it handle both light and heavy metals?
A: Absolutely. It can process ferrous and non-ferrous metals, both light and heavy, making it suitable for industrial recycling or steel mill applications.
