Horizontal Container Shear
A horizontal container scrap shear is a robust piece of industrial machinery used primarily in the recycling and metal processing industries. Its main function is to cut large volumes of scrap metal into more manageable sizes, facilitating easier handling, transportation, and further processing. The design of a horizontal container shear allows for continuous feeding of scrap into the shear chamber, improving efficiency and productivity. These machines typically feature powerful hydraulic systems to exert the necessary force to shear through dense materials like steel beams, pipes, and other metal waste. By reducing the size of scrap metal, these shears not only enhance operational efficiency but also contribute to more sustainable recycling practices by enabling the recovery and reuse of valuable materials.

Horizontal Container Shear Machine – High-Performance Scrap Cutting
At Super Recycling Solutions, we supply advanced horizontal container shear machines designed for heavy-duty scrap processing. Built with precision engineering and robust hydraulics, these machines deliver clean cuts, higher productivity, and reduced manual handling in recycling yards, steel plants, and industrial scrap facilities.
Why Choose a Container Shear Machine?
A container shear machine is essential for recycling centers that handle large volumes of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The horizontal container design allows easy feeding of bulky scrap, while powerful hydraulic force ensures consistent shearing of steel sections, plates, and mixed scrap loads.
Key Benefits of Horizontal Scrap Shears
Space-saving layout – The horizontal scrap shear design allows direct feeding without excessive pre-processing.
Efficient cutting – High-tonnage shearing power makes quick work of heavy scrap.
Versatility – Handles profiles, plates, HMS scrap, car bodies, and industrial waste.
Safety and reliability – Advanced hydraulic controls and automated operation reduce risks during processing.
Specialized Solutions for Metal Recycling
Our machines are not limited to one type of scrap. Each metal container shear is engineered for durability and performance across various applications:
Cutting structural steel and beams
Reducing bulky scrap into manageable sizes
Processing mixed ferrous and non-ferrous metals
Pre-processing material for shredding or baling
Types of Horizontal Container Shears
Horizontal container type shear – Standard design with a strong hydraulic press for bulk scrap cutting.
Heavy-duty container shear – Built for large yards and continuous operations with high throughput.
Scrap metal container shear – Optimized for mixed scrap loads where efficiency and speed are critical.
Hydraulic horizontal container shear – Ensures consistent pressure, smoother cutting, and reduced downtime.
Industrial container shear machine – Designed for long-term use in demanding recycling environments.
