Heavy Duty Gantry Scrap Metal Shear 4000kN With 6000×1400×700mm Press Box And PLC Auto Control

The Q43L-4000 Gantry Scrap Metal Shear is a high-performance solution designed for processing large volumes of mixed scrap metal in recycling yards, steel mills, and industrial dismantling operations. Built with a robust hydraulic system and a spacious press box (6000×1400×700mm), this machine efficiently handles bulky materials such as steel plates, rebar bundles, structural steel, and heavy mixed scrap.

With a powerful 4000kN cutting force and dual 45kW motors, it ensures stable operation under continuous heavy-duty workloads. The PLC automatic control system simplifies operation, reduces labor intensity, and improves overall production efficiency, making it ideal for medium to large-scale recycling facilities aiming to increase throughput while lowering operating costs.

Core Features / Key Advantages

• High cutting force of 4000kN ensures efficient processing of thick and dense scrap
• Large press box allows direct feeding of oversized materials, reducing pre-cutting needs
• PLC automatic control improves operational safety and reduces labor requirements
• Dual motor system (45kW×2) provides stable and continuous power output
• Heavy-duty hydraulic system designed for long-term industrial use
• Optimized blade design enhances cutting efficiency and extends blade life
• Suitable for integration into automated scrap processing lines

Technical Specifications

Applications

This gantry shear is widely used in:

• Scrap metal recycling stations
• Steel mills and foundries
• Ship dismantling yards
• Construction waste processing facilities
• Metal processing and fabrication industries

It is especially suitable for cutting:

• Steel plates and beams
• Rebar and reinforcement bars
• Scrap vehicles and structural parts
• Mixed heavy scrap metal

Working Principle

The machine operates through a hydraulic-driven system where scrap materials are compressed inside the press box and then pushed towards the cutting blade. The powerful hydraulic cylinder drives the blade downward to shear the material efficiently. With PLC control, the entire process—including feeding, pressing, and cutting—can be automated, ensuring consistent performance and reducing manual intervention.
