Danieli and Sita host demonstrations of the new Compact 800 shears

Recycling equipment manufacturer Danieli Henschel and recycling company Sita Vignier, both of France, invited around 20 French recycling and waste handlers to Sita's yard in Chambery for a demonstration of the new Danieli Henschel Compact 800 shears. Danieli Henschel is a division of Danieli Centro Recycling based in Italy.

The Compact 800 is a horizontally operating machine with an 800-metric-ton shearing capacity. Equally adapted to light, mid-weight or heavy scrap metal, the machine offers productivity of between 3 metric tons and 5 metric tons per hour, the manufacturer says.

Like the other equipment in the Danieli Henschel range, the Compact 800 shears are powerfully designed and equipped with top-range components: Deutz thermal engine (140 metric horsepwer) and a Parker pump.

Its compact single-piece design, its dimensions (6.25 x 2.45 meters) and its mass (24 metric tons) make it a machine that is easy to transport from one construction site to another, Danieli says.

Additional equipment features include:

• Basic machine adapted to sites working with moderate tonnages
• Stepped presser precompresses and densifies scrap metal
• Processing of nonferrous metals (aluminum sections)
• Automatic indexing of the shearing capacity to optimise cycle time
