Y83-315 Hydraulic Metal Briquetting Press (Ø120×180 mm) for Cast Iron & Metal Chips
The Y83-315 Hydraulic Briquetting Press is a heavy-duty solution designed specifically for compressing loose metal chips, turnings, and sawdust into high-density cylindrical briquettes.
It is especially suitable for cast iron machining waste, which is difficult to store, transport, and melt efficiently in loose form.
By applying a 3150 kN nominal pressing force and up to 278 MPa pressure directly on the briquette, the Y83-315 converts loose, irregular metal waste into solid briquettes with stable shape and density. This significantly reduces material volume, improves workshop cleanliness, and enhances melting efficiency in foundries.
The machine is widely used in foundries, CNC machining workshops, automotive parts plants, and metal recycling facilities, where metal chips are generated continuously and efficient recycling is essential.

Q1: What materials is the Y83-315 designed for?
A: It is mainly designed for cast iron sawdust, chips, and turnings. Other metal chips can be evaluated based on material characteristics.
Q2: Are the briquettes suitable for direct melting?
A: Yes. The high compaction pressure produces dense briquettes suitable for direct furnace feeding, helping reduce oxidation and burning loss.
Q3: Can the briquette size be customized?
A: Ø120 × 180 mm is the standard size. Other sizes may be discussed depending on material type and production requirements.
Q4: What is the main advantage compared to loose chips?
A: Briquettes are easier to store, transport, and melt, with lower dust, lower oil content, and higher metal recovery.
Q5: Is this machine a baler?
A: No. This is a briquetting press, designed to compress metal chips into solid cylindrical briquettes, not rectangular bales.
- Cast iron foundries
- CNC machining and turning workshops
- Automotive and industrial component manufacturers
- Metal recycling plants
- Smelting and remelting facilities
- The Y83-315 is particularly suitable for customers who want to improve metal recovery, reduce waste handling costs, and optimize furnace feeding efficiency.
