Types of Baler Machines & Their Uses

Many businesses rely on balers for all of their recycling needs. They’re hassle-free, efficient, and highly beneficial to anyone who wants a low-cost disposal option. However, it’s important to choose the right type of baler based on your business’s needs. There are various types of baler machines and they each have different uses. Read on to determine which machine is right for your business.

Vulcan Wire, Inc. offers all of the baling supplies you need to efficiently run your machine. Shop Now.

Vertical Baler

Vertical balers handle smaller volumes compared to most other baler options. Vertical balers require manual feeding, and they compress the inserted material from the top down. They’re best for businesses who only intend to use them a couple of times a day.

Horizontal Baler

Compared to vertical balers, horizontal balers are much more efficient in practice. They can be used continuously, and with the right setup, they can be fed automatically. These balers typically provide more force, allowing you to process a wide variety of materials such as plastic containers, textiles, and cans. Horizontal balers can handle high volumes of material, making them a great option for businesses with a lot of recyclables.

Auto-Tie Horizontal Baler

Auto-tie horizontal balers function exactly as they sound. Once the material has been compacted and processed, the baler will tie it up using the baling ties and wire you’ve chosen. This auto-tie feature saves your business time, energy, and subsequently, money.

Closed-Door Horizontal Baler

Another horizontal baler, these closed-door balers bring the utmost power to your business. The closed-door design allows them to create extremely dense bales out of a wide array of materials. The closed-door acts as a wall, allowing the baler to compress the materials as much as possible. Thus, the output is a bale optimized by volume.

Two Ram Auto-Tie Baler

A two-ram baler is the perfect machine for those who go through a significant amount of recyclable goods. These balers can handle large quantities at a time thanks to the large feed opening. Additionally, the two-ram system allows for efficient operation and highly dense outputs. They can manage an impressive variety of materials from scrap metal to textiles. Any high-recyclable producing business would greatly benefit from a two ram auto-tie baler.

Multi-Material Baler

Less industrial than some of the above-mentioned options, multi-material balers are designed for their versatility. However, they’re best suited for recycling centers that handle plastics, textiles, cans, paper, and corrugated materials. If your business is producing a moderate amount of recyclable material, a multi-material baler might be right for you.
