Horizontal Paper Baler

Running a business often goes hand in hand with accumulation of cardboard and paper waste, the amount of which grows with the development of the company. The more waste, the greater the cost of disposal and the more space required for storage. A vertical baler for cardboard or a horizontal baler can help to overcome the problem of excessive cardboard waste production.
The main task of a cardboard compacting machine is to reduce the volume of waste. The machine can be in the form of a vertical baler as well as an automatic horizontal baler with a larger feed opening. The horizontal baler allows you to adjust the length of a bale, as well as it facilitates compacting much more waste. Here are more benefits:

Reducing Company Expenses
Balers for cardboard can contribute to a significant reduction of company expenses. If you compact cardboard in a baler, you can quickly get rid of overfilled containers, because the compacted waste takes up less space. By reducing the volume of transported containers, your company can make a lot of savings.
Compacted cardboard boxes take up much less space, thanks to which waste can be transported from your company even several times less frequent. It is therefore possible to reduce both transport costs and the costs associated with waste storage.

Compaction Saves Space
The cardboard baler will reduce the amount of storage needed for waste significantly. This enables more efficient use of the available space. All companies and stores, where each centimeter of warehouse space counts, will benefit from additional place. As it is known: Waste volume reduction also means reduction in the costs of storage.
Efficient logistics and management of space is a very important element in the effective functioning of the company - the space saved can be allocated, among others for deployment of additional assortment or new machines to improve the company's operation.

Improvement Of Logistics
The cardboard waste collected in the company requires regular transport to waste handling companies. The machine for compacting cardboards by reducing the volume of waste, allows to minimize the number of necessary transports, which in turn improves the logistics of the company.
Fewer transport courses mean fewer problems related to planning an effective schedule for waste disposal - rush hour and holiday periods will cease to be cumbersome. The company will be able to afford less frequent emptying of containers and thus avoid the paralysis caused by delayed collection of waste by an external company.

Improving The Safety Of Employees
Baler for cardboard can contribute to increase to security of employees. The compatibility of our machines with the EN16500 standard means, among others, that the device will not start operation until the door is closed, which eliminates the risk of accidentally starting the machine, and a dual security system of the device detects each failure and stops the device if a failure occurs.
The machines are tight and free of protruding elements, and have a strong spindle lock which ensures control of door opening. To remove the bale you need to use two hands at the same time - the bale ejection is therefore completely safe and controlled.

Convenience And Time Saving
Baler for cardboard provides an easy and quick way to reduce the volume of waste by several times. Operation of the device is extraordinarily simple, so - after a short training, employees will be able to compact the waste without any problems. Simple control panel has only 2 buttons. In addition, the machine suggests the next step using the backlight and the full-light indicator tells you when the bale is ready to be tied.
Our balers with low profile can be placed close to the source of waste, thanks to which it is possible to quickly and extremely comfortably compact the cardboards. Time saved on waste handling will allow employees to focus on their daily duties.
Importantly, the baler for cardboard can be integrated with the production line - then the production residues are sent directly to the machine. Such work organization limits internal transport and increases work efficiency in the company.

Balers are critical components to industrial recycling and waste management strategies. Their ability to compress large amounts of waste into smaller, manageable bales makes them beneficial for not only recycling, but for overall production efficiency as well. Not all balers are created equally, though. It’s important to consider the specifics of your operation before choosing equipment.

How Much Waste Does My Business Produce?
Capacity plays a large part in deciding between a vertical or horizontal baler. Vertical balers handle moderate volumes of material, up to 50 tons of material per month. Horizontal balers generally handle between 50 – 200 tons of waste material per month. Businesses with specific needs or that produce larger waste volumes might consider choosing an auto-tie horizontal baler.

What Type Of Material Waste Is Commonly Produced By My Business?
Waste type could determine which baler best suits your operation. It could also determine whether a different piece of equipment, such as a compactor, could be a more suitable application. Cardboard, metals, plastic, textiles, corrugated cardboard, non-ferrous materials, and more can all be baled depending on the specifications of the machine you choose.

How Much Available Space Does My Warehouse Have?
Space is another element to consider when making equipment choices. Both vertical and horizontal balers have height and length restrictions. Horizontal balers occupy a larger footprint but are more automated than a vertical baler. As the name suggests, while vertical balers maintain a smaller footprint they can stand over 12’ high.
Safety is a priority when installing and operating balers. Make sure there’s enough room for the machinery to operate and be maintained safely and effectively. Warehouses should have an adequate open area for equipment and enough clearance for employees to safely operate it.

What Features Do I Need?
Historically, balers were simple machines controlled by a couple buttons and didn’t include a significant amount of safety features. Today this has changed completely. Manufacturers consider Operator safety as they are designing the balers and have included a wide array of features that can help make a baler safer and more efficient in any operation.
Ease-of-use is another factor to consider when thinking about features. Horizontal auto-tie balers are capable of receiving a constant feed of material while tying and ejecting bales automatically, but they require skilled personnel to operate them safely and efficiently. Vertical balers must be manually fed material, but are overall simpler to use. Closed door horizontal balers can be fed manually or by a conveyor, cycle automatically and only require labor to tie each bale.

What Is My Budget?
Typically, vertical balers maintain the lowest initial purchase price businesses wanting to invest in industrial recycling. However, if your answers to the above questions suggest a goal of reducing labor costs are part of your ROI calculation a horizontal baler might be the best option.
