Jiangsu Wanshida Hydraulic Machinery Co., Ltd

The city of Seville is accelerating its commitment to Spain’s Circular Economy Strategy 2030, pushing recycling facilities to adopt low-emission and energy-efficient technologies. To meet these standards, a leading metal recovery plant selected WANSHIDA to supply a next-generation scrap metal baler that would satisfy strict EU regulations and cut operational costs. The Y83/T-250B hydraulic scrap baling machine provides 250-ton cylinder pushing and shearing force with a maximum working pressure of 25 MPa. Its compression chamber of 2000×1750×900 mm produces 500×500 mm high-density bales in a rapid 90-second dry cycle. A powerful 90 kW motor allows the scrap metal press to maintain a steady throughput of 5 tons per hour while reducing energy consumption by about 15 %. Installation was completed in less than three weeks, including CE certification and operator training. Staff quickly adapted to the PLC control interface and praised the push-out discharge for safe and efficient bale handling. The plant reports that the metal recycling baler has improved overall productivity by 30 % and reduced transport costs by 20 %, thanks to the dense, uniform bales that maximize container space. Environmental impact was a key factor in the decision. Using this hydraulic metal baler has enabled the Seville facility to cut carbon emissions by decreasing the number of outbound shipments. The baler’s energy-efficient hydraulic system helps meet Spain’s stringent energy-saving targets while maintaining profitability. By investing in WANSHIDA’s advanced equipment, the Seville recycling center has become a model for sustainable operations in southern Spain, proving that a state-of-the-art scrap metal baler can simultaneously reduce costs and support environmental goals.  

Recycling plants in northern Spain face dual challenges: limited floor space and the need for high-volume processing. To address these demands, a regional recycling enterprise partnered with WANSHIDA to install the versatile Y83/T-250B scrap metal baler, ensuring efficient operations in a compact facility. The plant required equipment capable of compressing a variety of ferrous and non-ferrous metals into uniform, transport-ready bales. The hydraulic scrap baling machine from WANSHIDA delivers a 250-ton cylinder force and operates at a maximum working pressure of 25 MPa. With a compression chamber measuring 2000×1750×900 mm, it creates 500×500 mm bales in just 90 seconds. Powered by a 90 kW motor, the system achieves 5 tons of output per hour while reducing energy usage by about 15 % compared to older machines. CE-certified installation was completed on schedule. Operators quickly adapted to the PLC control system and highlighted the safety benefits of the push-out discharge. The metal recycling baler provides consistent performance even during continuous 24-hour shifts, enabling the plant to meet growing demand without additional floor space. Within the first quarter of operation, the facility reported a 35 % increase in daily processing volume and a 22 % reduction in transportation costs. Dense, uniform bales created by the scrap metal press optimize container loading and decrease shipping frequency, lowering carbon emissions and meeting EU environmental guidelines. Management noted that the high-capacity hydraulic metal baler has become central to their long-term growth strategy. By improving efficiency and reducing operating costs, the equipment allows the plant to reinvest savings into new recycling initiatives and employee training. This northern Spain case demonstrates how a single upgrade with a modern scrap metal baler—supported by WANSHIDA—can enable medium-sized plants to expand production capacity, maximize space, and stay competitive in a rapidly evolving recycling market.

In 2024, a large recycling enterprise in Barcelona partnered with our Industrial Scrap Metal Baler Manufacturer to upgrade its outdated metal processing line. Their previous machines consumed excessive power and produced loose bales, which failed to meet EU circular-economy standards. By adopting the Industrial Scrap Metal Baler ManufacturerY83/T-250B model, the company now enjoys a powerful 250-ton cylinder force and 25 MPa working pressure, capable of compressing steel, aluminum, and copper scrap up to 6 mm thick into 500 × 500 mm high-density bales weighing up to 600 kg. The 90 kW motor and 90-second dry cycle ensure a consistent capacity of 5 tons per hour, reducing energy consumption by 15 %. The Industrial Scrap Metal Baler Manufacturer installation team provided professional CE-certified service and ensured compliance with Spain’s UNE-EN standards. Operating costs have dropped 20 %, transportation efficiency has improved 30 %, and the company plans to expand with the Industrial Scrap Metal Baler Manufacturer for future projects. This success story demonstrates how partnering with an Industrial Scrap Metal Baler Manufacturer increases productivity and competitiveness.
