Processing steel coils can be dangerous, time consuming, and expensive. When anything falls into those category, everyone is searching for process improvements. 

Running steel coils through a Wolf 9500 shredder or Hammel 950 shredder is quickly becoming a new standard. These machines are engineered to handle dense, coiled, high-tension scrap that most equipment can’t process efficiently. The result is faster coil processing, improved workplace safety, and reduced operating costs.

Why Shred Steel Coils?

Steel coils are a common byproduct of steel manufacturing operations. However, their shape and density make them difficult and hazardous to process using traditional methods like torch cutting or shearing.

Shredding steel coils provides several advantages:

  1. Improved safety by eliminating open-flame cutting and manual coil handling 
  2. Faster processing with minimal operator involvement
  3. Consistent, furnace ready shredded output
  4. Reduced labor and downtime
  5. Lower transportation costs due to higher load density

Built for Coil Scrap: The Wolf 9500 and Hammel 950

The Wolf 9500 and Hammel 950 are industrial shredders built to tackle the toughest scrap. With high-torque, slow-speed systems and aggressive cutter configurations, these machines easily process a variety of metal materials including steel coils

For operations handling a mix of materials, both models can be outfitted with a cross-belt magnet to capture and separate ferrous material.

Make Your Operation Safer, More Efficient, and More Profitable

If your team is still torching or manually handling steel coils, it’s time to consider a more efficient approach. The Wolf 9500 and Hammel 950 shredders offer a safer, more consistent, and cost-effective solution for steel coil processing.
