I. Background of the project

A medium-sized scrap metal collection center in northern China mainly handles the processing and transportation of recyclable materials such as scrap metal, waste paper and plastic. As the business expanded, the existing “hand + cart” waste handling model gradually revealed a number of problems:

Inefficiencies: low loading and unloading efficiency, high labor costs and inability to meet the requirements of frequent truck turnover;

High labor intensity: scrap metal can weigh tens of kilograms, making manual processing difficult;

Site limitations: The collection point area is only 2,000 square meters, resulting in low efficiency of back-and-forth operations.


Front loader for landfill

II. Solution: LGZT LG933F Wheel Loader

To address these issues, the collection point purchased an LGZT LG933F wheel loader in March 2025 to become its primary material handling equipment. Reasons for choosing this model:

1. Model compliance

The LGZT LG933F front loader, thanks to its compact design and high power, is ideal for working in the limited space of a scrap metal collection point and can maneuver between scrap piles and trucks.

2. Performance that matches operating conditions

High load capacity: The reinforced drive axle easily copes with the tough working conditions at the scrap metal collection point.

High efficiency: The hydraulic system responds quickly, minimizing loading, lifting and unloading time, greatly improving efficiency compared to manual labor.

III. Specific areas of application


Front loader for landfill

The front loader LGZT LG933F is used at scrap reception points at all stages of the process: from the reception, sorting and movement of scrap. Basic scenarios:

1. Loading and unloading of scrap metal: replacing manual labor and increasing the efficiency of turnover

Scenario description: steel scrap and aluminum profiles delivered by trucks must be unloaded from the truck’s body to the indicated place at the scrap collection point or immersed from the warehouse to transport trucks for sending to a steel plant. The results of the application: loading and unloading 10 tons of scrap metal, which previously had two hours, now takes only 30 minutes at one operator using the front loader LGZT LG933F, which increases efficiency by 75%. LGZT LG933F also eliminates the risk of injuries in manual processing.

2. Packing and transportation of waste paper: Reducing labor costs

Scenario Description: Maculatory is pressed into standard bales in size 1.2 x 0.8 x 0.6 m using a press-collector, and then transported from the package zone to a warehouse or to a truck. The results of application: Previously, two workers took five minutes to move the lamp of waste paper on a car. The front loader LGZT LG933F can now simultaneously exceed two bales in just one minute, reducing the time required to carry one bale by 80% and significantly reducing the complexity.

3. Object management: Optimization of the use of space

Description of the script: at the waste collection points, it is necessary to regularly sort and lay various types of waste to avoid mixing, which complicates subsequent processing. The effect of use: the bucket of the front loader LGZT LG933F can quickly level out heaps of waste or collect scattered plastic waste to the designated places, increasing the efficiency of using the object by 20% and reducing manual sorting time.
