We've been getting a lot of requests lately about densifying mixed metal scrap with odd geometries like coil ends and thin-wall pipe, and what it come down to is the frame's gas-shielded welded steel construction—that's actually what makes this machine suitable to steel that's springy or has irregular shear planes which would rattle a bolted frame apart in about 20 days or so.
Basically the 22kW power rating with the imported hydraulic pumps means you can run the cycle time aggressive without the oil temp spiking above 55°C, and they spec water cooling as standdard but you'll want to request the air option if your floor setup doesn't have a closed-loop cooling line nearby (usually the installers can route that, but confirm the lead time).

So here's trust part—the key component bill is what pushed it for me: Siemens motors and Mitsubishi PLC are not the usual budget choices for a machine in this weight class, and teh 5-point automatic lockdown alarm isn't just a pressure switch on one side, it actually monitors the ram position at five discrete points which matters when you're baling something brittle or oddly sized.

About 160 tons of clamping force give or take, but we don't just run it at full presure for scrap pipe anyway—most buyers go with the manual control mode for the first few cycles to feel the material response before they switch to fully automatic operation, and the imported cylinder seals handle the constant stop-start much better than standard domestic seals.

This particular model is over-specified for waste paper application, but for steel processing you need that gap between the strapping guides to be snug at around 500mm rather than the standard 600mm, so double-check that spec against your typical bale width before you sign off.
We usually have stock on the Y81-160 variant, but the customized finish adds two weeks and they won't write the full 12-month warranty start date until the machine hits your dock, which I've seen cause confusion when the lead time stretches past 45 days.
MOQ for this machine is typically 1 unit, but we can discuss volume discounts if you're buying multiple units.
Yes, we can supply CE and ISO certifications with the machine. Just let us know which ones you need when placing the order.
Standard lead time is around 30–45 days, but custom colors might add a week depending on the finish. We'll confirm once you pick the color.
It covers all key components like the Siemens motor, imported hydraulics, and the control system against manufacturing defects. Wear parts like seals and filters aren't included, but we can ship replacements at cost.
Yes, the Mitsubishi PLC handles the full automation cycle, including the 5-point lockdown alarm. You can also switch to manual mode if needed for specific jobs.
