Description
Y81Q-135 135 Ton Scrap Metal Baler
135 Ton Scrap Metal Baler for Sale – Y81Q-135 Front-Out Compact
For sites where side clearance does not allow a turn-out discharge, the Y81Q-135 closes the gap between collecting scrap and shipping a product.
The Y81Q-135 runs a simple compression cycle, which is deliberate: fewer moving parts, less to service, more uptime.
There is no optional weakness in the Y81Q-135: the same plate thickness logic scales across the whole range, so the 135 ton class carries the frame margin the duty needs.
Key highlights at a glance:
- Bale size: 600×240
- Bale weight: 80 kg
- Chamber: 1300×600×600 (front-out)
- Installed power: 22 kW
- Compression force: 135 ton
- Duty rating: Single-shift duty
- Discharge: front-out forward-discharge baler
Who the Y81Q-135 Is Built For
Buyers who order the Y81Q-135 describe their operation as sites where side clearance does not allow a turn-out discharge. Typical applications cover tight urban sites, in-plant baling, compact yards.
On the Y81Q-135 the material list drives the chamber decision, and the configuration table below is where that decision gets recorded before the order goes to the shop.
Where the Y81Q-135 Sits in the Baler Range
The Y81Q-135 sits between the Y81F-125 and the Y81F-160 in the range, and the gap between tiers is deliberate.
Buyers upgrading from this class usually move to the Y81F-160, while buyers consolidating duty look at the Y81F-125. Either tier can be quoted against your material profile, so the comparison is made on your numbers rather than ours.

Applications and Materials
The Y81Q-135 is specified for light steel, aluminum, UBC cans, thin scrap, and the standard configuration covers tight urban sites, in-plant baling, compact yards. Mixed feed changes bale density on the Y81Q-135, so the chamber and tying options are selected against your material profile.
Inside the plant the Y81Q-135 usually sits between intake and outbound freight: scrap is charged from the floor or a hopper, compressed to the ordered bale size, tied, and staged for the truck. On the Y81Q-135 a 80 kg bale occupies a fraction of the floor space of the same weight in loose form, which is what converts baling into freight savings.
| Material | Suitability for the Y81Q-135 |
| Light steel | bales well when the feed is steady |
| Aluminum | acceptable duty; density moves with bulk density |
| Ubc cans | suited to the Front-out discharge construction, for sites with limited side clearance chamber |
| Thin scrap | handled without pre-sorting when unmixed |
How the Y81Q-135 Works
Charging, compressing, tying and discharging are the four steps of every cycle. On the Y81Q-135 the charge is compressed by the main cylinder against the chamber end wall until the bale reaches its set size, then wired off and released through the front-out forward-discharge baler arrangement. The finished bale is weighed, tagged and staged for the truck, and the Y81Q-135 cycle repeats on the same four steps for the whole shift.
Power for the Y81Q-135 is a 22 kW pack at 380 V, 400 V or 415 V at 50 Hz, or 60 Hz supply to order, with starting method and voltage confirmed against your site before build.
Every cycle of the Y81Q-135 is identical in principle; the variation is in the material, not in the machine.
Bale Economics: Why the 135 Ton Class Pays
Bale count per truck on the Y81Q-135 is the number that keeps the outbound queue shorter than the inbound one.
The compression and dwell figures for the Y81Q-135 are quoted together because one without the other does not describe the bale.
A bale from the Y81Q-135 is worth what your buyer pays per ton, plus what you save on freight, plus the floor you get back.
Installed Power and Site Supply
The Y81Q-135 runs a 22 kW power pack totalling 22 kW, matched to 380 V, 400 V or 415 V at 50 Hz, or 60 Hz supply to order. Your order fixes the voltage and frequency; a diesel-driven pack is quoted for sites without a reliable mains connection.
Choosing the Right Configuration
Configuration errors are the most common cause of a baler that underperforms after delivery on the Y81Q-135. Send bulk density, particle size and target bale weight, and we will confirm the configuration in writing before the order on the Y81Q-135.
When your feed arrives in mixed lengths, the larger chamber reduces bridging at the feed opening on the Y81Q-135. When it arrives pre-cropped to a target length, the smaller chamber keeps the compression stroke short and bale weight predictable on the Y81Q-135. On the Y81Q-135 the configuration table above states the figure for each chamber option.
Control, Power and Discharge Options
The Y81Q-135 is quoted with the control level your crew will actually use, because an unused PLC option is money spent on a feature nobody operates.
Feed Preparation and Material Handling
Pre-sorting before the Y81Q-135 is not a purity requirement, it is an economics one. Oversized pieces and loose wire left in the feed waste chamber volume, and the tonnage you lose that way is tonnage you paid freight for.
Maintenance, Wear Parts and Spares
Motor and power pack faults on the Y81Q-135 are diagnosed by our engineers from the fault description; most resolve to supply quality, filter condition or a contactor, all of which are field-replaceable.
The seal kits for the main and side cylinders of the Y81Q-135 are the highest-frequency spare. Keeping one set on the shelf converts a two-week wait into a two-hour job on the Y81Q-135. On the Y81Q-135 that check appears in the maintenance schedule shipped with your build.
Frame, Cylinder and Power Pack Build
A 22 kW pack on the Y81Q-135 is assembled, run and signed off in-house, and the same shop holds the spares list for it years later.
Compression on the Y81Q-135 is delivered by the main cylinder against the chamber end wall at 135 ton, with the force held through the tying sequence so the finished bale keeps its section.
Customization and Optional Configurations
- Chamber size and bale cross-section matched to your buyer specification
- Motor rating and starting method matched to your local supply
- Control level: manual, semi-automatic or PLC automatic
- Diesel engine driven hydraulic power pack for off-grid sites
- Discharge type and bale tying method
- CE and other certifications for your market
The standard Y81Q-135 build list is: chamber 1300×600×600 (front-out), 22 kW power pack, front-out forward-discharge baler discharge, and the control level your crew will actually use. Each of those four lines is a separately priced option in the Y81Q-135 quotation, so the machine you order is the machine the quotation describes.
Why Buy the Y81Q-135 from HUAXIN
The Y81Q-135 leaves the shop with a works test report from a machine we built, which is the difference between a quotation and a guarantee.
The Y81Q-135 test record is kept by build serial number, so a spares question five years later gets the right answer.
We quote the Y81Q-135 with the chamber, motor and control mode your duty justifies, and nothing it does not.
A Y81Q-135 ordered with downstream equipment is commissioned as a line, not as separate deliveries that have to be negotiated on site. The Y81Q-135 quotation lists every option separately so the comparison is on paper, not in conversation.
Honest Limits: When to Buy Something Else
Lead times stated are for standard configurations. Custom chamber, motor or control combinations extend the build window, and we confirm the exact date in writing with the order.
Safety and Operating Discipline
Loose wire offcuts and bale fragments accumulate around the Y81Q-135 discharge. Housekeeping is a safety task, not cosmetic: it prevents the slips that cause most reported injuries on baler floors on the Y81Q-135.
Noise levels on the Y81Q-135 are within the standard machine envelope; hearing protection is still the site’s decision, based on your measured floor levels rather than our generic advice. On the Y81Q-135 the operating zone is marked on the layout drawing issued with the quotation.
Footprint, Installation and Commissioning
For plants running more than one machine, we recommend a shared bale-staging and wire-tying bay so the Y81Q-135 and the next tier machine use one downstream layout.
Wire tying is usually the last operational gap on the Y81Q-135. Have your wire stock, spool size and tying tool ready at installation; a bale that cannot be tied cannot be shipped on the Y81Q-135. On the Y81Q-135 the drawing package states the dimensions your contractor needs.
Export Shipping, Packing and Documentation
After shipment, tracking and the bill of lading copy are sent by email for the Y81Q-135, and the estimated arrival is confirmed with the forwarder.
Insurance for the Y81Q-135 shipment can be arranged on request; we issue the invoice at the declared value you specify. The Y81Q-135 documentation pack lists every document included with your build.
The Y81Q-135 in the 135 Ton Scrap Metal Baler Lineup
As a 135 ton scrap metal baler, the Y81Q-135 is built for Single-shift duty: 22 kW of installed power against a 1300×600×600 (front-out) chamber. Sites where side clearance does not allow a turn-out discharge are the typical buyers of this class, and the Y81Q-135 answers them with 600×240 bales at 80 kg.
Ordering the Y81Q-135 means ordering a 135 ton scrap metal baler around your material: light steel, aluminum, UBC cans and thin scrap. On the Y81Q-135 the chamber, bale cross-section, motor rating and control level are set from your intake at quotation, not fixed to a catalog configuration.
Every Y81Q-135 quotation covers the 135 ton scrap metal baler platform: the 135 ton frame, 22 kW power pack, Front-out discharge construction, for sites with limited side clearance, and the control level your crew will actually use. The grades the Y81Q-135 bales follow the trade specifications published by the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI), the standards body scrap is graded against in international trade.
Buyers comparing the Y81Q-135 against a smaller press should weigh what the 135 ton scrap metal baler class adds: 22 kW of installed power against a 1300×600×600 (front-out) chamber, 600×240 bales at 80 kg, and a Single-shift duty rating that holds those figures across a full production day.
