The Y83-250 Hydraulic Metal Baler is a practical and field-proven solution designed for scrap yards that are expanding capacity and facing increasing pressure on handling efficiency.
Many recycling businesses reach a stage where loose scrap becomes difficult to manage—materials pile up, transportation costs rise, and manual handling slows down operations. This is exactly where the Y83-250 comes in.
With a 2500 kN pressing force and a processing capacity of up to 4500 kg/h, this machine transforms irregular scrap into dense, uniform bales, helping operators streamline daily operations and significantly reduce logistics costs.
Its large chamber (2000 × 1400 × 900 mm) allows direct feeding of bulky materials, while the turn-out discharge system ensures smooth bale removal without additional equipment.
Customer Background
