Loose scrap rarely arrives in a convenient shape. Irregular pieces can be awkward to collect, store and move between working areas. Compressing suitable material into bales gives steel mills a more consistent form to handle.
WANSHIDA exported one Y83-160 hydraulic scrap metal baler to a steel mill in Pakistan, configured to produce bales with a 350 × 350 mm cross-section.
Scrap processing continues after compression. Finished material still needs to be discharged, collected and moved to its next destination.
For buyers, this makes bale dimensions an important purchasing consideration. A bale should suit the available handling equipment and storage arrangements, as well as any requirements from the next processing stage.
The Y83-160 supplied for this project combines a 1600 × 1000 × 800 mm loading chamber with a 22 kW motor. Hydraulic compression turns suitable loose scrap into compact bales.

The 350 × 350 mm measurement refers to the bale cross-section. Bale length, weight and density must be considered separately, as they depend on the material and operating settings.
A more regular bale shape can make material easier to organize than loose, irregular scrap. However, handling arrangements should be planned around the complete bale dimensions and weight.
Before ordering, buyers should confirm:
Collection: How will bales be collected after discharge?
Movement: What equipment will transfer them to storage or loading areas?
Downstream use: Does the receiving process have size or weight requirements?
These checks help connect the baler’s output with the steel mill’s actual workflow.
This Pakistan delivery provides a reference for buyers considering a Y83-160 scrap metal baler with a 350 × 350 mm bale cross-section.
