"Metso NIS has the design and ability to process difficult materials quickly and efficiently. Cutting cycle times are fast, and the design of the moving floor in getting the scrap metal to the blades removes the added time of folding and compressing in a box," says Benjie Smith, owner, Oak Cliff Recycling.

The Texan recycling company has struggled with unwieldy materials in conventional style shears that slow down production.  Oversized and often intractable material hampered recycling processes, but the challenges were detected and solved with the help of Metso experts.

Scott Holder, Regional Sales Manager, from Metso states "The wide-ranging Metso N Series Inclined Shear was the perfect solution to Oak Cliff's processing inefficiencies".

Robust and reliable shearing with easy installation 

The Metso NIS is a state-of-the-art gravity feed shear that can accept long material and large bulky scrap; it is available with cutting forces from 600 to 1250 tonnes. A self-contained and is easy to install unit offers exceptional performance on heavy melt scrap, auto bodies, steel mill scrap, miscellaneous shapes, pipe, plate, shipbreaking, railcar, demolition scrap, aluminum, and stainless steel materials.
