MOROS STEEL SCRAP SHEAR - FORKLIFT CRUSH

[@jeroen1914]

The reason they filmed this is probably because normally those specific items will not pass through a machine like this. Even though this machine looks huge and has no trouble compacting the materials, the hardened edges of the "knive" are not going to like cutting or shearing those sections of mast and that counterweight. I think they just wanted to compact it to see if it would do it. These sections alone are probably not going to hurt it but from what ive seen they cut these sections up with a torch and skip machines like this all together. Ive worked on quite a few of these machines and the size of the hydraulic rams and specially the powerpack down below never seize to amaze me. This one judging by its size probably has six 120 to 150 kw AC motors with two +/- 400 liter per minute pumps per motor so 12 pumps in total and about a 14000 liter oiltank. The level in this tank can go from almost full to 1/3 in a few seconds when its operational.

[@chehystpewpur4754]

thats alot of oil being compressed. must be some intense pressures. imagine being next to one of those lines or hydraulic rams when either had a blow out. i bet it could easily cut someone in half.

[@jeroen1914]

@@chehystpewpur4754 yes it can, a few years ago someone got beheaded when a hose popped off while testing some equipment, he was from a different hydraulic company but still, makes you think twice when crawling arround in or working on any kind of machine. Ive seen and worked on some amazing and even bigger machinery in my life but seeing one of these work at full capacity is just insane. Pressures in these machine are not even that high for longevity and durability, i think its in 200/250 bar range. could sound high for some but in hydraulics thats a normal working pressure, not low but certainly not high either haha.

[@jeroen1914]

@@brandonclark2585 I guess not but it happend while testing some equipment in the company where he worked so LOTO isnt even possible as you need the equipment to be fully operational to do tests. Our company follows and uses all the safety measures you could think of when working on site or wherever, LOTO, VCA, toolbox and safety meetings you name it but inside the company we sometimes have to pull of some shady things or have very "creative" solutions to get things done (as in every company i assume haha). Always respect the things you work on and think before you act but hey, sometimes you also need some luck and sadly this guy forgot to bring it with him that day.

[@brandonclark2585]

@@jeroen1914 i gotcha. Yeah that would be an ACM (alternate control measure) where power is needed to test the equipment so regular LOTO is not possible. I work at a lumber yard as a Safety Coordinator, so I'm all about LOTO but there is a lot of grey area, especially when it comes to maintenance testing equipment. Sometimes people just get unlucky 😕

These things eat materials like nothing else, they were playing with it as they normally dont crush items like this but on automatic these things go mad and its amazing to see how good this design is for where its positioned, also the trucks that come and go to unload material are about the same height aswell and so are the walls in the yard that separate all the ferro / non ferro materials. everything in these places is done with long boom Sennebogen excavators specially designed for metal yards. I dare to say the design couldnt be any better.

Begs the question; what did a fork lift ever do to you?!

[@wmden1]

An older, DC electric one, with a full charge, welded its forward switch closed, at full speed , Nothing I did would turn it off, including turn off the key switch, and the brakes wouldn't hold it. I thought of the battery connector, after a few seconds, but I couldn't drive it and reach and pull the connector cable apart, at the same time. It had a pretty strong pallet on the forks and I ran it into a pile of pallets that were up against one of the steel columns, that held the roof up, very strong column and bolted to the floor. It sat there and spun long enough for me to turn loose of the wheel and bend over with both hands, and pull the connector loose. What it did to me was create the need for a clean pair of underwear, figuratively speaking.

@@MrBen527 Yes.. the reach arms on the yellow truck furthest away from the camera are at least 1"inch material seam welded into a box section, might bend but not crush ... the green Clark fork truck is probably 1/2 inch plate, cast counterwight will break if loaded in the wrong direction, chassis will bend but not crush again.

Magic

[@dunc71]

@@acidburn7777 I don't know for sure but I'd say it's either adjustable or its meant to crush on an angle, similar to when you cut metal sheet on a hydraulic shear the blade comes downs on a slant so all the force is shearing on a small area rather than the whole sheet at once, for thinner sheet you can cut with the blade closer to horizontal and for thicker material you need more angle, just like with paper you can easily cut at the tip of the scissors where the blades are closer to parallel but with card you need to cut closer to the handles where the angle is greater.
