Abstract
A scrap shear machine comprises a compression box for compressing scrap into a scrap log, a shear formed with a throat mounted adjacent to the compression box, and an indexing ram and a ram head mounted thereon for incrementally advancing the log into the throat of the shear, whereby increments of the log are sheared off. Means are provided for adjusting the width of the compression box and shear throat and for adjusting the width of the ram head in accordance with the width of the compression box and shear throat, whereby the maximum dimension of the sheared scrap can be controllably adjusted in one pass through the machine.
