Y83-315 Ton Scrap Metal Briquetting Press with 3150kN Nominal Pressure, Ø120×180mm High-Density Briquettes, 278MPa Forming Pressure for Steel Plant Pre-Treatment Lines
The Y83-315 Scrap Metal Briquetting Press is a 315-ton class hydraulic briquetting machine designed for steel mills, large scrap recycling centers, and semi-continuous production lines.
With a 3150 kN nominal pressing force and 278 MPa effective pressure on the briquette, the machine compresses loose metal chips into high-density cylindrical briquettes, significantly improving material handling efficiency, furnace charging stability, and metal recovery rate.
It is commonly installed in:
- Steel plant scrap pre-treatment sections
- Cast iron chip recycling lines
- Machining waste recovery systems
- Furnace feeding preparation areas
The 315-ton hydraulic system ensures:
- Stable compression of cast iron chips
- Reduced rebound after demolding
- Consistent briquette density suitable for furnace feeding
Actual pressure acting on the material reaches 278 MPa, enabling:
- Strong internal bonding of metal chips
- Lower oxidation loss during melting
- Higher scrap utilization rate in steelmaking
This briquette dimension is widely accepted by steel plants because it:
- Fits standard furnace charging systems
- Maintains good permeability during melting
- Balances density and melting speed
| Model | Nominal Pressure (kN) | Briquette Size (mm) | Pressure on the bale | Power (kW) | Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Y83-315 | 3150 | Ø120 x 180 | 278MPa | 22 |
800-1200kg/h Cast iron sawdust |
Note: The above parameters are for standard configuration. Customization is available based on customer requirements. Production capacity may vary depending on material type and form.
The Y83-315 briquetting press is engineered for:
- Cast iron chips
- Steel machining swarf
- Metal sawdust
- Short turning scraps
Its pressure-to-briquette ratio makes it especially suitable for high-density iron-based materials, where lower-tonnage machines often fail to achieve sufficient compaction.
Installing a 315-ton briquetting press in a steel plant pre-treatment line delivers:
- Reduced scrap storage volume
- Cleaner and safer material handling
- More stable furnace charging
- Lower melting loss compared to loose chips
- Improved logistics efficiency between workshop and furnace
This makes the machine a functional bridge between machining waste and steelmaking input.
The machine adopts a PLC-based control system offering:
- Stable cycle control
- Consistent briquette dimensions
- Reduced operator dependency
- Easy integration into existing recycling or production lines
The Y83-315 can be customized based on:
- Material characteristics
- Target briquette density
- Required output rate
- Integration with conveyors, crushers, or shredders
This flexibility makes it suitable for both standalone operation and production-line deployment.
- Warranty Period: 1 year for the complete machine
- All critical hydraulic and structural components are tested before delivery
- Machines are manufactured under strict quality control standards
- Long-term spare parts support available
