Top 10 Hydraulic cutting machine Suppliers, Manufacturers, Wholesalers and Traders in Hungary

Founded in 2005, Budapest Recycling Tech Ltd. has grown from a small workshop in the capital's industrial district to a regional leader in hydraulic cutting and cable recycling solutions. What sets them apart is their focus on "precision meets durability"—a philosophy that shines through in their best-selling hydraulic cutter equipment, designed to slice through thick scrap cables and metal sheets with minimal effort. Their scrap cable stripper equipment, a favorite among local automotive suppliers, automates the tedious process of stripping insulation, reducing labor costs by up to 40% for many clients.

"We started by building machines for local junkyards," says CEO Marta Kovacs, "but quickly realized businesses needed more than just a cutter—they needed a system. Now, our cable recycling equipment line includes everything from pre-shredders to pneumatic conveyors, making us a one-stop shop." Today, they serve clients across Austria and Slovakia, with a 98% customer retention rate thanks to their 24/7 technical support and 5-year warranty on critical components.

Based in the manufacturing city of Gyor, this 2010-founded company has made a name for itself in lead acid battery recycling—a niche critical to Hungary's automotive sector. Their lead acid battery breaking and separation system is a marvel of engineering: it safely crushes batteries, separates plastic casings from lead plates, and neutralizes acid, all while meeting EU emission standards. "Battery recycling is high-stakes," explains lead engineer Janos Horvath. "One mistake can harm workers or the environment, so we built our system with 17 safety interlocks and an air pollution control system equipment that filters 99.9% of particulates."

Beyond batteries, their hydraulic press machines equipment is a workhorse for compacting metal scrap into dense briquettes, ideal for transport to smelters. Clients in Germany and the Czech Republic praise their after-sales service, which includes on-site training and custom modifications. "A German auto parts manufacturer once needed a press that could handle odd-shaped aluminum scraps," Horvath recalls. "We tweaked the (mold) design in a week—no extra charge. That's how we build trust."

Debrecen Eco Machinery entered the scene in 2012, just as the first wave of lithium-ion battery recycling needs hit Hungary. Today, their li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment is a top choice for electronics recyclers and EV battery producers. "Lithium batteries are tricky—they're energy-dense and can catch fire if mishandled," says product manager Zsofia Nagy. "Our dry process equipment uses low-heat separation, avoiding the water waste of wet methods, while our wet process equipment handles more complex battery chemistries with precision."

What clients love most is their flexibility. A Romanian e-waste facility recently expanded from processing 500 kg/hour to 2,500 kg/hour by adding a second dry separator to their existing line—a modularity that sets Debrecen apart. "We don't sell 'one-size-fits-all' machines," Nagy adds. "We ask, 'What's your waste stream? What's your end goal?' Then we build the solution."

Szeged Hydraulic Systems, established in 2008, specializes in turning loose scrap into dense, marketable materials. Their hydraulic briquetter equipment, for example, compresses metal shavings, plastic flakes, and even sawdust into tight briquettes that fetch higher prices at recycling centers. "A local furniture factory was throwing away wood waste," says sales director Peter Toth. "Now, they use our briquetter to make fuel briquettes—turning cost into revenue."

Their hydraulic baler equipment is equally popular, with a 200-ton model that can crush 10 cubic meters of cardboard into a single bale. But it's their plastic pneumatic conveying system that's generating buzz: this add-on transports lightweight plastic scrap from shredders to balers via air pressure, eliminating the need for manual carting. "We're not just selling machines," Toth notes. "We're selling efficiency—and that's priceless."

Miskolc Recycling Innovations may be one of the newer players (founded in 2015), but they've quickly made waves in circuit board recycling—a complex process requiring separation of metals, plastics, and hazardous components. Their circuit board recycling equipment line includes the compact granulator with dry separator, a space-saving machine that processes 500–2000 kg/hour of circuit boards, sorting gold, silver, and copper with 95% purity. "Electronics waste is the fastest-growing waste stream in the world," says founder Andras Molnar. "Our water process equipment uses non-toxic reagents to dissolve solder, ensuring we recover every gram of valuable metal."

Clients in Italy and France appreciate their focus on sustainability: the granulator runs on 30% less energy than competitors, and their water process equipment recycles 90% of its usage. "We're not just recyclers—we're environmentalists," Molnar adds. "Every machine we build has a carbon footprint calculator, so clients can see exactly how much they're reducing emissions."

Pecs Green Tech, a veteran in the industry since 2003, has carved a niche in large appliance recycling—think refrigerators, air conditioners, and washing machines. Their refrigerator & AC recycling machines equipment is a beast: it safely extracts refrigerants, cuts through steel casings, and separates foam insulation from copper coils. "Appliances are nightmares to recycle manually," says service manager Erika Nemeth. "Our motor stator cutter equipment, for example, removes copper windings from motor stators in 10 seconds flat—something that used to take 5 minutes by hand."

They also offer a range of shredder and pre-chopper equipment, including a 4-shaft shredder that can handle everything from plastic tubs to small appliances. "Last year, a Hungarian retailer approached us with a problem: they had 1,000 old fridges piling up," Nemeth recalls. "We installed a full line, and now they process 50 units a day—turning trash into cash."

Founded in 2014, Nyiregyhaza Industrial Tools has found success in a unique niche: lamp and bulb recycling. Their lamp recycling equipment, including the popular "bulb eater" machine, safely crushes fluorescent tubes and LED bulbs, capturing mercury vapor and glass shards for separate recycling. "Schools and offices generate tons of spent bulbs—it's a hidden environmental hazard," explains CEO Laszlo Farkas. "Our bulb eater turns a 5-gallon bucket of bulbs into a handful of glass powder and metal, making disposal cheap and compliant."

They've expanded recently into metal melting furnace equipment, with a medium-frequency model that's perfect for small-scale foundries. "A local artisanal metalworker used to outsource melting," Farkas says. "Now, he melts scrap copper in-house with our furnace, cutting costs and reducing his carbon footprint."

Kecskemet Battery Recycle Ltd. has been at the forefront of lead acid battery recycling since 2009, serving clients across Germany and Poland. Their lead acid battery recycling equipment line is comprehensive, from battery breakers to de-sulfurization machines equipment that removes sulfur from lead paste, increasing the purity of recycled lead. "Lead recycling is a (circular economy) success story," says technical director Agnes Szabo. "Our furnace for paste reduction melting equipment can recover 99.5% of lead from batteries, which is then used to make new batteries—closing the loop."

What clients value most is their compliance expertise. "German regulations are strict, and we know exactly what's needed," Szabo adds. "We don't just sell machines—we help clients pass audits, too."

Based near the Austrian border, Sopron Environmental Engineering (founded 2011) specializes in lithium ore and tailing extraction—critical for the growing EV battery supply chain. Their lithium ore extraction equipment uses advanced crushing and sorting technology to recover lithium from low-grade ores, while their tailing ore extraction equipment helps mines reprocess waste piles, turning liabilities into assets. "Mining companies used to see tailings as waste," says geologist and founder Istvan Kovacs. "Now, they see them as untapped resources, thanks to our efficient extraction methods."

They've recently expanded into crude ore extraction equipment, with a mobile unit that can be transported to remote mining sites. "A Spanish lithium mine was struggling with high transport costs," Kovacs recalls. "Our mobile unit processes ore on-site, reducing hauling needs by 60%."

Rounding out our list is Eger Waste Management Systems, a 2007-founded company with a focus on hydraulic presses and cable recycling. Their hydraulic press machines equipment, available in 100-ton to 500-ton capacities, is a staple in scrap yards, while their hydraulic cutter equipment is prized for its ability to handle tough materials like reinforced hoses and steel cables. But their showstopper is the jelly-filled-cable recycling plant wcw-500, designed to process the sticky, petroleum-based cables used in telecommunications.

"Jelly-filled cables are notoriously hard to recycle—until now," says sales rep Anna Toth. "Our wcw-500 uses hot water to melt the jelly, then separates copper conductors from plastic, achieving 99% purity. A Czech telecom company now recycles 20 tons of old cables monthly, saving on landfill fees and selling the copper for profit."
