Valencia, Spain’s busiest port for scrap exports, faces constant pressure to lower shipping costs and increase container utilization. In 2024, a prominent exporter partnered with WANSHIDA to install a new scrap metal baler capable of handling mixed ferrous and non-ferrous metals with high density and speed.
The Y83/T-250B hydraulic scrap baling machine was the perfect fit. It offers a powerful 250-ton cylinder force and 25 MPa working pressure. The compression room measures 2000×1750×900 mm and produces 500×500 mm bales in just 90 seconds. A 90 kW motor drives the press, allowing 5 tons of output per hour while saving approximately 15 % energy compared with older models.
CE-certified installation was completed in under two weeks. Operators quickly learned the PLC control interface, and the push-out discharge made loading easier and safer. With the new metal recycling baler, the company now fills containers more efficiently and reduces labor costs.
Results came fast. Container utilization improved by 20 %, and overall transport expenses fell 18 %. The dense, uniform bales created by the scrap metal press prevent cargo shifting and lower insurance premiums during long voyages.
Managers note that this hydraulic metal baler not only streamlines logistics but also meets strict EU environmental regulations, giving the company an advantage when negotiating export contracts. The upgrade demonstrates how a single investment in advanced equipment from WANSHIDA can transform shipping economics for high-volume exporters.
