Heavy Duty Mechanical Alligator Scrap Shear Machine

Overview
Reinforced mechanical alligator shear scaled up for medium structural sections while keeping the fast cycle time of a flywheel drive.
The Heavy Duty Mechanical Alligator Scrap Shear Machine pairs a larger flywheel and heavier gear train with a reinforced jaw frame, extending mechanical shearing up into medium structural sections that a light-duty mechanical shear can't take.
It keeps the fast, low-maintenance cycle of a flywheel drive while adding the frame mass needed to absorb heavier impact loads without losing blade alignment.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to what buyers most often ask before ordering this machine.
It uses a larger flywheel, heavier gear train and reinforced jaw frame to cut thicker round bar and light structural sections that the standard mechanical shear can't handle.
Industries
- Steel and Re-rolling MillsMills need a predictable charge: scrap cut to length or baled to a size the furnace and logistics can handle, on a duty cycle that matches the melt shop.
- Scrap Metal RecyclingYards juggle mixed grades, truck turnaround, and mill specifications. Loose scrap wastes space and freight.
- Automotive and Auto DismantlingEnd-of-life vehicles and body-shop offcuts are bulky. Heavy drivetrain parts and sheet need different processing.
