Our engineers have spent over 40 years building and perfecting the Big MAC - a product that has earned its reputation for durability and reliability. We listen to our customers and continue to build machines that are operator-friendly. Every Big MAC is extensively tested prior to shipment and is backed by our second to none parts and service department.
Mobile or stationary, diesel or electric, we have a machine to fit your needs.
The mobile Big MAC QS is easily moved from location to location by a truck tractor. Easy to operate, with minimal working parts, the Big MAC flattens entire autos in one process. Cylinders are used to push (as opposed to pull) the lid down which is the direction a cylinder has its greatest force. The Quick Setup (QS) design enables transitioning from travel mode with cylinders lowered to operational with cylinders raised and locked into place automatically in under 30 seconds.
The Big MAC QS can flatten three to six scrap autos, with or without engines, into bundles which can be stored as dense inventory or loaded on trailers for shipment to market. Every machine features as standard equipment a 6 cylinder diesel engine, remote control, air compressor, hydraulic landing gear, waste oil collection ports, heavy duty push bumper, and 6” diameter rods – the largest in the industry.
The Little MAC stationary flattener is designed to produce just as much as the Big MAC, but is for the operator who does not need portability.
Both flatteners use counterbalance valves to safely lower the lid while still maintaining a cycle time of 45 seconds – fast enough to easily outpace your loader.
Even small yards can easily afford a MAC. By crushing at convenient times, stacking crushed autos to better utilize yard space, enlarging buying potential, allowing more time for engine and parts recovery, and selling at better price periods, much higher income opportunities exist for all of your operations.
Our field-proven balers provide a process for creating tight bales for loose steel sheet, industrial scrap, clips and trim stock - ferrous and non-ferrous. Our line of balers produce high-density bales while lowering staffing requirements, operating costs and maintenance costs. Our balers can be used automatically, semi-automatically, or manually depending on efficiency and safety needs.
The model 5200 produces 65 - 75 bales per hour at 100% efficiency and has a shearing force capacity that is rated at 380 tons.
The baling sequence for the 5200 is initiated when loose material is loaded into the charge box. The automatic cycle for operation initiates the first compression. The second compression begins only after the full extension of the first ram head, assuring positive positioning of the first compression head. The second ram head extends until maximum pressure is reached, with nearly 170 tons of force. When pressure is relieved, the gate door opens. When the gate is fully open, the second compression ram ejects the bale.
After full extension and when the bale is clear of the chamber, the secondary ram returns to its fully-retracted position, the gate door closes and the first ram returns to its fully retracted position. This allows the material which has been placed on top of the cover plate to fill the charge box, and the formation of the next bale is begun. And, all of this happens in less than one minute!
