Types of Baler Machines
Baler machines play a vital role in compressing and processing waste materials into dense, tight bales for easier logistics, storage, and further recycling. They come in various types, each tailored to specific needs in terms of appearance, application, and capacity.
Here are two types of balers:
-
Vertical Balers
Vertical balers compress waste materials by applying vertical, downward force or pressure. Once the chamber reaches a certain level through manual feeding, a pneumatic or hydraulic-powered ram will move downward and process the waste. This type of baler is suitable for sites and locations that require a small floor area. Vertical balers can handle different types of materials, such as plastics, paper, corrugated cardboard, and textiles. This baler is the best partner for industries that process materials less frequently.
-
Horizontal Balers
Horizontal balers can handle high volumes of waste and compress them into large bales. Unlike a vertical baler, this type of baler can be loaded and unloaded automatically, which makes it efficient and continuous. Waste materials are fed through the opening above the chamber or hopper and are ejected after reaching the specific requirements of the equipment. Horizontal balers can process different waste resources like paper and cardboard, textiles, plastics, and aluminium. This baler is suited for businesses that handle a high volume of waste daily.
