In Saudi Arabia, demolition and industrial maintenance scrap often arrives in irregular, heavy forms—bars, thick sections, and large plate pieces that can’t be shipped efficiently without sizing. As the market becomes more time-sensitive, yards that can produce buyer-ready lengths gain an advantage: faster loading, fewer truck delays, and fewer exceptions that require secondary handling. The trend is clear: heavy scrap processing is shifting from ad-hoc cutting to a standardized sizing routine supported by a metal guillotine shear built for consistent daily work.
The customer needed to solve:
Oversize scrap creating frequent “problem pieces”
Slow staging because operators spent time repositioning material
Inconsistent output piles that were hard to stack and load
Dispatch delays during peak inbound periods
They wanted a robust scrap metal cutting shear that could become the yard’s central sizing station.
Jiangsu Wanshida Hydraulic Machinery Co., Ltd. supplied 1 set Y43L-8000 (Q43L-8000L) industrial guillotine shear. The selection emphasized a long loading room for practical feeding and strong holding for controlled cuts—critical when scrap forms vary. The yard implemented a repeatable flow:
Crane/Loader Feed → Hold → Cut → Discharge → Stack → Load.
This reduced secondary handling and helped the customer keep output uniform even when the incoming batch changed.
| Item | Specification (Y43L-8000 / Q43L-8000L) |
|---|---|
| Cutting force | 4000×2 kN (800-ton class), stroke 700 mm, 2 cutting cylinders |
| Holding force | 1100 kN, 2 pcs |
| Side force | 750 kN, 2 pcs |
| Loading room | 8000 × 1950 × 900 mm |
| Cutting width / min mouth | 2000 / 500 mm |
| Cutting frequency | 3 times/min (theory) |
| Cutting angle | 9° |
| System pressure | 27.5 MPa |
| Motor power | 225 kW, 6 motors (45 kW × 6) |
| Pump sets | 6 sets, 250YCY14-1B |
| Cooling | Oil cooler + water tower + cycle water pump |
| Weight | ~92,000 kg |
They reported fewer “exception pieces” requiring extra steps. Staging improved because cut output formed more consistent piles. Loading became smoother, and the cutting station stopped being a last-minute rush point before dispatch.
For demolition and industrial scrap, a scrap guillotine shear helps convert irregular heavy pieces into consistent, shippable lengths—reducing rework and stabilizing daily operations.
Q1: What’s the benefit of a long loading room?
It improves feeding practicality and reduces repositioning time for awkward scrap pieces.
Q2: How do holding and side cylinders improve results?
They stabilize scrap during cutting, improving cut consistency and reducing interruptions.
Q3: What’s the best way to plan installation space?
Design clear lanes for feed, discharge, and stacking to avoid cross-traffic.
CTA: Share your scrap shapes, max dimensions, and feeding method. We’ll recommend a guillotine shear setup optimized for your yard flow.
