Hi

I have 200 shapefile in a folder. all fo them are similar. I need select by atribute and them aply eliminate tool and save the shapes files. 

Is it possible to do automatically with all the layers from model builder or arcpy? How can I do?

Do your process once so you can get the scripting syntax for each step.

Check the documentation on iterators in Modelbuilder if you aren't used to python.

Create a basic model to see if it works once.  I would suggest having a separate destination folder from the input folder it you are going to iterate all shapefiles in one folder.

Perhaps get a model started and people can leap in to see whether a model or script would be simpler in your case
