Mac Fab Waste Compactor and Baler

• Compacting cardboard, plastic film, and other dry waste in retail environments.
• Reducing waste volume in manufacturing facilities and warehouses.
• Managing packaging waste in distribution centres.
• Processing general waste in hospitality and healthcare sectors.

Typical bale weight

For this class of equipment, bale weights typically range from 150 kg to 350 kg, depending on material and compaction force.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz.

Cycle time

A typical compaction cycle for a vertical baler is often between 30 to 60 seconds.

Footprint

Vertical balers commonly have a compact footprint, typically around 1.5m x 1.2m, making them suitable for spaces with limited room.

Suitable materials

This type of equipment is typically designed for baling cardboard, plastic film, paper, and sometimes textiles.

Compaction force

Compaction forces for vertical balers commonly range from 10 to 30 tonnes.

Food processing waste management systems are valued for their ability to handle organic waste streams efficiently and support regulatory compliance. Buyers typically prioritize robust construction, reliability, and ease of maintenance when purchasing used units. The equipment's reputation centres on its importance for operational sanitation and waste reduction. When buying second-hand, inspectors should verify mechanical condition, check for corrosion or wear, and confirm documentation of regular servicing. Reputable systems typically demonstrate durability and consistent performance across varied food processing environments.
