Hydraulic Alligator Scrap Shear Machine
Overview
Hydraulic alligator-jaw shear that bites through structural sections, pipe, and rod scrap in a single clamping stroke.
The Hydraulic Alligator Scrap Shear Machine uses a hinged, jaw-like blade action powered by a single hydraulic cylinder to clamp and cut structural steel, angles, pipe, and rod scrap down to furnace-ready lengths.
The alligator design keeps the moving blade close to the fixed blade through the full stroke, giving a clean shear on mixed cross-sections without the material sliding out of the jaw.

Related applications
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.
