Description
Y81K-800 800 Ton Scrap Metal Baler
800 Ton Scrap Metal Baler for Sale – Y81K-800 Three-Pump Heavy
Not every yard needs the flagship. The Y81K-800 covers Continuous three-shift duty duty with a 3×55 kW power pack.
Compression on the Y81K-800 is hydraulic and unidirectional, so bales come out square, dense and stackable.
The Y81K-800 uses the same frame design philosophy as the larger gantry classes: welded plate, machined guides, and a power pack you can service from the floor.
Key highlights at a glance:
- Bale size: 600×600
- Bale weight: 1400 kg
- Chamber: 3500×3000×1300
- Installed power: 3×55 kW
- Compression force: 800×2 ton
- Duty rating: Continuous three-shift duty
- Discharge: gantry-type heavy baler
Who the Y81K-800 Is Built For
The Y81K-800 fits operations described as plants feeding furnaces directly with dense 600 mm bales. Typical applications cover large steel mills, integrated recyclers, furnace lines.
The chamber choice for the Y81K-800 starts with your material list, not with a tonnage figure; the table below is how that choice gets made at order.
Where the Y81K-800 Sits in the Baler Range
The honest boundary: the Y81K-800 is the right machine until your daily tonnage makes the Y81K-1000 cheaper per bale.
Buyers upgrading from this class usually move to the Y81K-1000, while buyers consolidating duty look at the Y81K-630. The comparison between tiers is issued as a single document so nothing is hidden behind packaging differences.

Applications and Materials
The Y81K-800 is specified for heavy mixed ferrous, HMS 1&2, industrials, and the standard configuration covers large steel mills, integrated recyclers, furnace lines. Lightly contaminated feed still produces a bale on the Y81K-800; density follows bulk density, and we confirm it per material profile.
Inside the plant the Y81K-800 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 Y81K-800 a 1400 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 Y81K-800 |
| Heavy mixed ferrous | routine duty for this class |
| Hms 1&2 | processed at the quoted output |
| Industrials | primary feed for the Y81K-800 |
How the Y81K-800 Works
Charging, compressing, tying and discharging are the four steps of every cycle. On the Y81K-800 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 gantry-type heavy baler arrangement. The finished bale is weighed, tagged and staged for the truck, and the Y81K-800 cycle repeats on the same four steps for the whole shift.
A 3×55 kW unit supplies the Y81K-800, wired for 380 V, 400 V or 415 V at 50 Hz, or 60 Hz supply to order as your site requires.
There is nothing exotic in the Y81K-800 cycle; the engineering is in holding the figures.
Bale Economics: Why the 800 Ton Class Pays
For operations that ship by container or truck, bale size on the Y81K-800 decides whether the freight count is a cost you notice or one you do not.
Density on the Y81K-800 comes from compression held through the tie, which is why the quote states a bale weight rather than a hope.
Freight saved is the guaranteed line on a Y81K-800; the density premium is real but follows the buyer’s specification rather than ours.
Installed Power and Site Supply
The Y81K-800 runs a 3×55 kW power pack totalling 165 kW, matched to 380 V, 400 V or 415 V at 50 Hz, or 60 Hz supply to order. Voltage and frequency follow your order confirmation; diesel drive is available where the grid is not.
Choosing the Right Configuration
Bale size must satisfy three parties at once: your furnace or buyer, your wire shop, and the container or truck that moves the bale. The Y81K-800 covers the common overlap; unusual bale specs are built to order.
Configuration errors are the most common cause of a baler that underperforms after delivery on the Y81K-800. Send bulk density, particle size and target bale weight, and we will confirm the configuration in writing before the order on the Y81K-800. On the Y81K-800 the configuration table above states the figure for each chamber option.
Control, Power and Discharge Options
Control level and discharge type are quoted as separate lines for the Y81K-800, so you pay for the configuration your duty justifies.
Feed Preparation and Material Handling
If you charge the Y81K-800 with a loader rather than a crane, plan the approach so the bucket does not load one side of the chamber preferentially; uneven fill tilts baler wear.
Maintenance, Wear Parts and Spares
The frame welds on the Y81K-800 should be inspected visually at the annual service. We supply the weld inspection points on the drawing package so your engineer knows exactly where to look on the Y81K-800.
Motor and power pack faults on the Y81K-800 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. On the Y81K-800 that check appears in the maintenance schedule shipped with your build.
Frame, Cylinder and Power Pack Build
The 3500×3000×1300 chamber of the Y81K-800 is machined after welding, so the feed opening and the end wall stay true to the drawing rather than to the weld distortion.
A 3×55 kW pack on the Y81K-800 is assembled, run and signed off in-house, and the same shop holds the spares list for it years later.
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 Y81K-800 build list is: chamber 3500×3000×1300, 3×55 kW power pack, gantry-type heavy baler discharge, and the control level your crew will actually use. Each of those four lines is a separately priced option in the Y81K-800 quotation, so the machine you order is the machine the quotation describes.
Why Buy the Y81K-800 from HUAXIN
The Y81K-800 is not a bought-in machine with our badge; the frame, chamber and hydraulics are manufactured and tested in our works.
Testing on the Y81K-800 is done in the ordered configuration, so the numbers your crew sees on day one match the quotation.
Technical questions on the Y81K-800 are answered by the engineers who build it, not by a sales desk with a script.
We quote the Y81K-800 with the chamber, motor and control mode your duty justifies, and nothing it does not. The Y81K-800 quotation lists every option separately so the comparison is on paper, not in conversation.
Honest Limits: When to Buy Something Else
Machines are shipped to your voltage and frequency. Running the Y81K-800 on a supply it was not built for is outside warranty; confirm your site supply before order.
Safety and Operating Discipline
Fire risk around the Y81K-800 comes from hydraulic oil and accumulated fines; an oil spill kit and a swept floor are the standard controls, and both are cheap.
Loose wire offcuts and bale fragments accumulate around the Y81K-800 discharge. Housekeeping is a safety task, not cosmetic: it prevents the slips that cause most reported injuries on baler floors on the Y81K-800. On the Y81K-800 the operating zone is marked on the layout drawing issued with the quotation.
Footprint, Installation and Commissioning
Noise and hydraulic oil handling are the two site items usually missed. The Y81K-800 needs an oil collection point under the power pack and a drain route that does not cross the charging area.
Foundation requirements for the Y81K-800 are modest: a level concrete pad of the stated thickness and anchor bolts. The concrete specification ships with the quotation so your civil contractor can price it locally on the Y81K-800. On the Y81K-800 the drawing package states the dimensions your contractor needs.
Export Shipping, Packing and Documentation
Pre-shipment inspection of the Y81K-800 by your own agent or a third party is welcome; we provide access to the shop and the test report without extra charge.
Export documents for the Y81K-800 are issued in one pack: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, CE certificate, test report, and the manual set. The Y81K-800 documentation pack lists every document included with your build.
The Y81K-800 in the 800 Ton Scrap Metal Baler Lineup
As a 800 ton scrap metal baler, the Y81K-800 is built for Continuous three-shift duty: 3×55 kW of installed power against a 3500×3000×1300 chamber. Plants feeding furnaces directly with dense 600 mm bales are the typical buyers of this class, and the Y81K-800 answers them with 600×600 bales at 1400 kg.
Ordering the Y81K-800 means ordering a 800 ton scrap metal baler around your material: heavy mixed ferrous, HMS 1&2 and industrials. On the Y81K-800 the chamber, bale cross-section, motor rating and control level are set from your intake at quotation, not fixed to a catalog configuration.
Every Y81K-800 quotation covers the 800 ton scrap metal baler platform: the 800 ton frame, 3×55 kW power pack, Three pumps and three motors, for heavy ferrous duty, and the control level your crew will actually use. The grades the Y81K-800 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 Y81K-800 against a smaller press should weigh what the 800 ton scrap metal baler class adds: 3×55 kW of installed power against a 3500×3000×1300 chamber, 600×600 bales at 1400 kg, and a Continuous three-shift duty rating that holds those figures across a full production day.
