Tiger shear is crucial in the scrap recycling industry. It works on a powerful hydraulic system. High - pressure hydraulic oil drives the piston, forcing the moving blade to cut against the fixed blade. This mechanism allows it to exert a large shearing force and cut through various materials.
In scrap processing, tiger shear has multiple uses. It reduces large - sized scrap, making it easier to handle, transport and process. For example, it can cut thick metal sheets, car bodies and large plastic chunks. Cutting scrap into smaller pieces increases the surface area, which benefits subsequent recycling processes such as melting or shredding, and improves recycling efficiency. Additionally, precise cutting ensures a high - quality end - product and better material separation.
In a metal recycling plant, a tiger shear was used to process old steel beams. It can quickly cut them into manageable lengths, significantly reducing processing time compared to manual cutting. In a plastic recycling facility, it efficiently cut large plastic pipes, enabling more efficient granulation.
Understanding the manufacturer's technical data sheet is essential for making accurate decisions.
1.Shearing Force:
This is the most critical parameter, directly determining the thickness and hardness of materials the machine can cut.
2.Blade Length:
Determines the width of material that can be cut at one time. Common lengths range from 600mm to over 1000mm.
3.Main Unit Power (kW):
The power of the motor driving the hydraulic station affects energy consumption and continuous operation.
4.Opening Width/Cylinder Stroke (mm):
Determines the maximum height (or thickness) of material that can be loaded.
5.Shearing Frequency (min):
Theoretically, the number of times the blade can cycle per minute. The actual operating frequency is affected by operating speed.
6.Control System:
Standard relay control: Economical and easy to maintain.
PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) control: High stability, powerful functionality, easy automation linkage (such as integration with conveyors), and convenient fault diagnosis. Recommended choice.
Tiger shear contributes significantly to environmental protection and resource circular utilization. By effectively recycling scrap, it reduces the need for extracting virgin materials, conserving natural resources. Also, proper scrap recycling minimizes waste sent to landfills, thus reducing environmental pollution.If you need more help, please contact us.
