In the world of scrap processing and recycling, reliable, powerful and efficient equipment is essential. We are therefore delighted to introduce the latest addition to our range: the Taurus Bluline CAT 12. A mobile shear baler on a tracked chassis, designed for the most demanding conditions.
How does a shear baler work?
A shear baler combines cutting and compacting in one powerful machine. The scrap metal is first compressed in the pre-compactor with swinging wings (SB), which optimally prepares the material. Then, two double-acting cylinders provide a powerful cutting motion. The shear baler is equipped with replaceable cutting plates and high-quality steel to keep the machine protected from wear. Thanks to smart hydraulics, precise sensors and robust construction, the shear balers operate efficiently, safely and reliably.
Why the CAT 12?
This shear baler is designed to cut and compact scrap quickly and efficiently, directly on site. Thanks to its tracked undercarriage, the machine can be easily moved without the need for additional transport.
Key features:
- Equipped with 2 shear cylinders for powerful cutting performance
- 2 independent remote controls: one for the shear baler and one for the tracked undercarriage
- With a cutting force of 1,200 tons, this machine effortlessly cuts through the heaviest steel
- Cutting width: 1,100 mm
- Compression/clamping force: 360 tons
- Swinging-wing compression system (SB): compresses the scrap evenly before it is cut
- Excessive stroke on both wings with 90° stop
- Open hopper dimensions: 2,600 x 7,200 mm
- Number of cylinders per wing: 3
- Main compression cylinder: 150 tons
- Equipped with a diesel engine: 500 hp
Mobility and safety
The tracked undercarriage with remote control ensures that the machine can be moved safely and accurately, even on rough terrain. In addition, the system automatically disables scissor functions when moving to ensure maximum safety.
Applications
The Taurus Bluline Cat 12 is the perfect choice for:
- Scrap processors
- Recycling companies
- Industrial yards handling large volumes of heavy metals
- Companies looking to combine flexibility with high capacity
Operation
Conclusion
The Taurus Bluline Cat 12 is more than a machine, it is a complete solution that combines power, efficiency and mobility. For companies looking to increase productivity and reduce costs, this machine is the investment of the future.
