The ENERPAT SCE5000 Hydraulic Car Baler is a heavy-duty solution designed for end-of-life vehicle (ELV) recyclers, auto dismantlers, scrap yards and metal recovery operators.
It is built to reduce the volume of whole cars, vans and light mixed scrap metal, making it easier to store, handle and transport valuable ferrous materials.
With a large 5000 × 2000 mm compression chamber, the SCE5000 can process most passenger vehicles without pre-cutting or dismantling, helping operators improve productivity and reduce labour costs.
The compact, high-density bales are ideal for container loading, long-distance transport and downstream steel recycling.
Flexible Configuration for Different Recycling Sites
The SCE5000 is available in configurations suitable for different operating environments, including:
- Stationary installation
- Mobile configuration with hydraulic lifting legs
- Diesel-powered operation for remote recycling yards
- Electric motor option for fixed facilities
No complex foundation is required, making it suitable for a wide range of scrap yards, vehicle dismantling facilities and regional recycling operations.
Fast Processing with Reliable Hydraulic System
Equipped with a powerful hydraulic system and a Cummins 160 HP diesel engine, the SCE5000 delivers consistent pressing performance in demanding recycling environments.
The multi-cylinder compression design provides:
- Smooth box closing operation
- Strong compression force
- Stable bale formation
- Reduced cycle time
Each cycle produces a uniform 850 × 650 mm metal bale, helping maximise storage space and simplify transportation logistics.

1. Six-Cylinder Compression System for Higher Productivity
ENERPAT Advantage: 6-cylinder lid compression system
The SCE5000 uses a six-cylinder compression design with three hydraulic cylinders on each lid, providing stronger and more balanced compression compared with conventional four-cylinder systems.
Benefits:
- Higher compression force and faster box closing operation
- More consistent bale density
- Improved productivity for high-volume ELV processing
- Reduced stress on individual hydraulic components
For busy scrap yards and vehicle recyclers, this means more efficient daily processing and better transport utilisation.
2. Cummins 160 HP Diesel Engine for Heavy-Duty Operation
ENERPAT Advantage: Industrial-grade diesel power
Equipped with a Cummins QSB6.7 160 HP diesel engine, the SCE5000 provides reliable power for demanding recycling applications.
Benefits:
- Strong power reserve for complete vehicle compression
- Stable operation under heavy loads
- Suitable for remote recycling yards without fixed power supply
- Easy access to global engine service support
3. Hardox 500 Wear-Resistant Steel for Longer Service Life
ENERPAT Advantage: Premium wear protection
The compression chamber uses Swedish Hardox 500 wear-resistant steel, designed to withstand continuous friction and impact during vehicle compression.
Benefits:
- Excellent abrasion resistance
- Reduced wear on the compression chamber
- Lower maintenance requirements
- Longer service intervals
This helps operators reduce downtime and maintain consistent production.
