| The Foam / Film / Fiber Balers (or 'High Memory' Material Balers) have many important design features that separate them from other standard or multi-use balers. |
Bale weights are heavier which means lower hauling costs and better transport efficiencies.
When compared to a standard baler or even a high density baler that is trying to bale Foam, Fiber or Film, these High Memory specialty balers can produce a heavier, denser bale of foam, film, fiber or carpet salvage in about one-fourth or even one-fifth the time of the standard baler.
The High Memory Material Balers use a longer cylinder and stroke so that more air is forced out from the foam, film or fiber as the material is compressed. Thus, the longer stroke provides bale densities that are much higher.
As the Film, Fiber, Foam is compressed there is 'memory' and retention factors that must be addressed which cannot be handled properly with a standard baler (such as a cardboard baler). Special retention dogs (in conjunction with other unique features) help to overcome these critical elements.
The High Memory Material Balers also have special sheering capabilities not found on standard balers. Integrated in these balers is a specially designed 'Sharks teeth' component that serves as both a sheering mechanism and a serrated knife that rips through the foam, film and fiber.
Special design considerations help keep the material from becoming wedged or trapped in the baler (which could otherwise cause jamming).
In-feed openings are larger than the size of the typical baler openings. Oftentimes the smaller in-feed openings mean that a shredder must be added to the baling system in order to reduce the size of the (material) particulates being baled.
The High Memory Material Balers are also designed with a tapered chamber area (which is different from the standard taper) so that the bales are released with more ease. This modified taper is another feature that sets these specialty balers apart from the typical baler.
In addition to the above overview, there are many other differences in the design that separate these Specialty Vertical balers from other balers (some of which are proprietary features).
For Foam Recycling, Film Recycling, Fiber Recycling and processing Carpet Salvage, these specialty 'High Memory Balers, are an excellent choice. In order to be effective on this class of high memory materials, the design and functionality is significantly different than that of the multi-use balers, standard balers or even the high density balers.
- Foam, Film, Fiber Balers can reduce waste disposal costs (since the material is removed from waste stream)
- Foam, Film, Fiber Balers can reduce labor costs associated with the handling of this material during disposal.
- Foam, Film, Fiber Balers can generate revenues from the sale of the recycled materials.
- Foam, Film, Fiber Balers can help streamline overall waste processing operations.
- Foam, Film, Fiber Balers can help with the reduction of fire hazards (due to accumulation of materials)
- Foam, Film, Fiber Balers can help improve workplace safety and neatness.
