400-Bar Hydraulics
Maximum Energy Efficiency for Scrap Processing and Metal Recycling
LINDEMANN’s advanced 400-bar hydraulic technology is engineered to maximise the energy efficiency of modern scrap balers and metal recycling equipment. By operating at higher pressure levels, a greater proportion of the installed power is converted directly into compaction force, increasing productivity while minimising energy losses.
Compared to conventional hydraulic systems, 400-bar technology enables the use of more compact hydraulic cylinders and lower oil volumes. This reduces the amount of hydraulic fluid that must be moved throughout the system, minimising flow losses and improving overall drive efficiency. At the same time, faster cylinder movements and shorter cycle times contribute to higher throughput.
The result is improved productivity, lower operating costs and significantly enhanced energy efficiency across scrap processing operations. Operators benefit from reduced energy consumption per tonne of processed material and more sustainable recycling performance.

Thanks to its optimised system design, substantial energy savings can be achieved throughout the machine lifecycle, helping reduce CO₂ emissions and supporting more sustainable metal recycling operations.
