Metal Baler Machine

The ECOHYDRAULIC Metal Baler Machine is a heavy-duty hydraulic equipment designed for compressing various scrap metals into compact, dense bales for easier storage, transportation, and recycling. As a professional China manufacturer and factory with over 30 years of experience, ECOHYDRAULIC provides reliable baling solutions for global metal recycling and metallurgy industries.

What is a Metal Baler Machine?

A metal baler machine is a hydraulic recycling system used to compress loose scrap metal into uniform blocks or bales. It significantly reduces the volume of materials such as steel, aluminum, and copper, improving handling efficiency and increasing melting value in foundries and recycling plants.

How Does a Metal Baler Machine Work?

The working principle is based on hydraulic compression. The machine applies strong pressure through hydraulic cylinders to squeeze scrap metal inside a chamber. Once the material reaches the required density, it is automatically or manually discharged as a compact bale.

Working Process

• Feeding: Scrap metal is loaded into the compression chamber
• Compression: Hydraulic cylinders apply high pressure to compact materials
• Forming: Metal is shaped into dense rectangular or cylindrical bales
• Discharging: Finished bales are pushed out for storage or transport

Technical Parameters

Types of Metal Baler Machines

1. Vertical Metal Baler

Suitable for small to medium scrap processing capacity. It requires less floor space and is commonly used in workshops and small recycling stations.

2. Horizontal Metal Baler

Designed for continuous and large-scale operations. It can be equipped with conveyors for automatic feeding, making it ideal for industrial recycling plants.

3. Scrap Metal Baler (General Type)

Used for mixed scrap materials such as steel shavings, aluminum profiles, and copper scrap.

4. Hydraulic Heavy-Duty Baler

Designed for high-density compression of large and tough scrap materials in steel mills and large recycling facilities.
