A 200-ton scrap metal baling press is a heavy-duty industrial machine designed to compress large volumes of scrap metal into dense, compact bales for easier handling, transportation, and recycling. 

Here's a detailed overview of such a machine:

Key Features of a 200-Ton Scrap Metal Baling Press:

1. Press Capacity:

- Rated at 200 tons (approximately 400,000 lbs or 181,437 kg) of compressive force.

- Suitable for high-density materials like steel, aluminum, copper, and mixed ferrous scrap.

2. Bale Size & Output:

- Typical bale dimensions: ~1.2 m (L) × 0.8 m (W) × 0.6 m (H) (varies by model).

- Produces dense, uniform bales that are easier to stack, store, and ship.

3. Hydraulic System:

- Uses powerful hydraulic cylinders to generate the necessary pressure.

- Often features dual or triple hydraulic rams for balanced compression.

4. Control System:

- PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) for automated operation.

- Touchscreen interface for easy monitoring and control.

- Safety interlocks and emergency stop systems.

5. Frame & Construction:

- Reinforced steel frame with high tensile strength.

- Designed to withstand continuous industrial use.

6. Loading Mechanism:

- Manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic feeding via conveyor belts or cranes.

- Some models include a hopper or feed chute.

7. Bale Ejection:

- Hydraulic ejection system to push out finished bales.

- Optional automatic tie-wrapping (wire, steel straps, or plastic bands).

8. Power Requirements:

- Typically requires 3-phase electric power (e.g., 380–480V, 50/60 Hz).

- Motor size: ~55–75 kW depending on model.

9. Applications:

- Recycling facilities

- Steel mills and scrapyards

- Manufacturing plants with metal waste

- Automotive shredding operations

Benefits of Using a 200-Ton Baling Press:

- Reduces volume by up to 70–80%, saving storage and transport costs.

- Increases material value due to higher density and cleaner bales.

- Improves safety and efficiency in handling scrap.

- Supports sustainability and circular economy goals.

Common Manufacturers:

- Krupp (Germany)

- Schenck (Germany)

- Tongli (China)

- Zhangjiakou (China)

- Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (Japan)

> Note: Always ensure the machine meets local safety and environmental regulations (e.g., CE, ISO, OSHA).

Tips When Purchasing:

- Confirm compatibility with your scrap type (ferrous vs. non-ferrous).

- Check warranty, maintenance support, and spare parts availability.

- Consider automation level based on labor and throughput needs.

FAQ

> Does the installation of Hydraulic Press For Metal Scrap require drilling and bolting into the floor or can stand without drilling? 

Regarding the drillings or not, it depends on the type of baler machine, for vertical baler machine, most of vertical baling machine needs drilling and bolting, because it is vertical type, and weight center of the machine is high; and for horizontal baler, it no need foundation, drilling and bolting, just put it on horizontal cement gound wich thickness more than 150mm.    

> How to choose your Hydraulic Press Reciclyng Metal correctly? 

As for this issues, first, you need to know which model of the baler machine will you need, then you can compare price, quality, services of the baler machine from different suppliers, and at last you will know which supplier is better.    

> What is the electricity supply of  Scrap metal Baler In Japan needed, single or three phase? 

The electricity supply of the machine is 3 phases, for the voltage, we can customzie the motor voltage per your local voltgage.    

> What is lead time of Scrab Tin Presing Meshines? 

The lead time is various according to different models, generally speaking, it is approx. 30 days, and will be longer with bigger models, and shorter with small models, we will work overtime if you need the baler machine urgently.     

> How much would Automatic Baler Stainless Steel scrap press , its installation, and training cost me? 

The price of baler machine is different according to different bale size, bale weight and output capacity as for the installation, training cost, the machine is very easy, just put it on horizontal ground, adding hydraulic oil, connect to power supply, then operate per user manuals.    

> What is pressing force of France Scrap metal Baler Press? 

The pressing force of the briquetting or baler machine is different depends on different models, smaller machine has small pressing force, and bigger machines has big pressing force; and it is also determined by the material charastics and bale or briquette density.    

> How long is the non-load cycle time of Recycling Scrap Metal Baler press? 

The single non-load cycle time is approx. 60 seconds, and we can make it faster or lower according to your requirement, such as 30 seconds one bale, or 90 seconds for one bale.    

> What all do I need to install the Aluminium Scrap Pressing Baler Machine? 

After the metal scrap baler machine arrived your place, you need the hydraulic oil, cable wire, worker, electrical technician, then you can start to test and operate the baler machine per user manual, or make video call with our engineer.    

> What is wall thickness of Scrap Metal Compactor Baling Machine? 

The wall thickness of the baler is different, big pressure force will use more thick wall thickness, and will use small thickness with small pressure force accordingly, for example, 100tons pressure force will use 12mm, and 315tons will use 25mm.
