ABSTRACT:
A scrap metal press is disclosed which includes an inclined feeder box, downstream whereof there are provided at least one compacting unit and a guillotine shears unit for the production of compacted scrap blocks. To ensure that a smooth downward movement of the scrap metal can occur even with the feeder box only slightly inclined on a horizontal plane, a plate is provided at the box bottom which is at least temporarily reciprocated with a component in the same direction as the box longitudinal direction. The plate motion, which brings about a condition of dynamic friction between the scrap metal and plate, is preferably accomplished by the use of a slow-motion hydraulic motor having an off-centered pivot pin passed through an opening in the box bottom and engaging pivotally with a body attached to the plate and being loosely movable within the opening.
