Automatic Horizontal Balers

With a strong compaction force and reliable performance, our automatic horizontal balers are designed to satisfy the needs of large-scale recycling facilities.

ABOUT OUR AUTOMATIC HORIZONTAL BALERS

Engineered to provide optimal performance and versatility across different industries

Our Automatic Horizontal Balers provide a powerful solution for handling large volumes of recyclable waste. Featuring a fully automated process, they are ideal for high-efficiency operations that require reliable compaction of materials such as cardboard, plastic, and paper.

Our units can produce bales ranging from 200 kg to 1 tonne, making them suitable for the export of recyclables. With an automatic bale pressing force of up to 60 tonnes in our EF horizontal balers range, we can offer a solution for virtually any application.

Improved Efficiency

Fully automated operation reduces the need for manual labour, allowing businesses to focus on more value-added activities.

Sustainability

By processing large volumes of recyclable materials, horizontal balers help reduce landfill waste, contributing to environmental sustainability.

Reliability

Robust construction and high-quality hydraulic systems ensure long-term reliability and low maintenance costs.

OUR MODELS

Built to Handle a Wide Range of Recyclables

Every horizontal baler in our range is built to meet the needs of recycling facilities, distribution centres, and waste management businesses, whether you’re handling cardboard, EFT bottles, plastic, foam, or polystyrene.

EF 1000 Auto

The EF 1000 Auto handles large-scale recycling with high-pressure compaction, producing 6 to 11 tons per hour for efficient waste management.

EF 600 Auto

The EF 600 Auto delivers 3 to 7 tons per hour. Its tying system, robust hydraulics, and anti-slide design with automated photoelectric activation reduce downtime and labour.

EF 400 Auto

The EF 400 Auto processes 1.5-3 tons per hour. Its design enhances productivity with automated operations, reducing manual effort and ensuring long-term performance.

Material Feeding:
Waste materials are fed into the baler through the feed opening; the photoelectric sensors will trigger the automatic compaction.
Compaction Process:
Hydraulic pressure will compress waste into dense bales with an anti-slide design for consistent formation.
Bale Tying:

The advanced automatic tying system secures the bales efficiently, reducing downtime and eliminating the need for manual intervention.
Bale Ejection and Collection:
Once the bales are fully formed and tied, the system automatically ejects them. These compact bales can be stored or transported for recycling.

We are here to help

Is training provided for operating the Automatic Baler?

Yes, we provide full training for your team to operate the baler safely and efficiently.

What materials can be processed by automatic horizontal balers?

Our automatic horizontal balers are built to handle a wide range of recyclables, including cardboard, plastic, foam, EFT bottles, and polystyrene, making them versatile for various industries and waste management needs.

What maintenance does the Automatic Baler require?

Routine maintenance includes checking the hydraulic system and ensuring the tying mechanism is operating smoothly. Our Service & Care team provides ongoing support to minimise downtime.

What is the difference between an automatic and semi-automatic horizontal baler?

An automatic horizontal baler operates fully automatically, ensuring continuous, efficient compaction without manual intervention. On the other hand, a semi-automatic baler offers the same automated compaction but requires manual tying, providing operators with more flexibility.
