If you are a business owner and you are considering a baler for your cardboard and plastic waste you really should consider the following points.
First of all you should really look at the size of baler most suitable for your needs. Most businesses will be looking at a small baler in order to keep costs to a minimum. There are many baler companies to choose from and most of them have a very serious disadvantage. Most small balers are too small. The opening width of most small balers is too narrow and the user has to fold or flat-pack every box and piece of cardboard before it can go inside the baler. This takes ages and is very labour intensive. It really creates a lot of unwelcome hard work for the baler operator. There is a solution however. There is one small baler which has a much wider opening and actually makes better bales into the bargain.
The best "small baler" on the market is a W40, sold by "Strong Recycling Balers Ltd". You can find "Strong Recycling Balers" on any major search engine. They are based in the West Midlands and the balers are manufactured locally. The reason their baler is better is because the opening width is 730mm wide. The internal width on most small balers is 535mm to 600mm wide. The extra width on the W40 means most standard box sizes will fit easily into the baler without any need for flat-packing.
Actually, the W40 has many other features which make it the best "small baler" on the market. Normally, the pressing plate on a small baler only comes down to just below the top of the bottom door. The cylinder/ ram on the W40, is the same size cylinder/ ram as used on the larger W70 model. This means the piston is longer and the Pressing platen actually travels deeper into the bottom of the baler. There are two main benefits for this. Because the plate comes down much further, the bales are more compact and you can make much larger bales than other small balers. The waste is compacted sooner and you can also alternate your waste much easier by making good solid bales earlier.
BRILLIANT FOR BALING PLASTIC SHRINK-WRAP
This W40 baler is really brilliant for baling plastic shrink-wrap and other clear plastic. No baler of this size and price can make plastic bales as good as this. The pressing plate on most balers, usually goes down to just below the top of the bottom door. The pressing plate on the W40 goes down much further to within about 8 inches of the bottom of the baler. This makes a greater compaction of the plastic right from the beginning. Plastic has a memory, so when you press and then bring the pressing plate back up, the plastic will gradually rise back up. The W40 compacts the plastic deeper into the chamber.
Although you will use the baler on "auto", for most of the time, there is an additional feature, where you can switch the operation to manual and send the pressing plate down. It will then stay down until you turn the operating switch to the "up" position. When the baler is getting full of plastic waste, you can manually operate the baler and leave the plate pressing down. It helps to break down the memory of the plastic.
This small W40 baler will make cardboard bales of 30kg to 60kg. It will easily make plastic bales of 60kg to 80kg.
The baler is very quiet and runs off a standard 13amp 220 volt power supply. It only draws a low electrical current when working and will not function with the door open, making it totally safe. There is a very intelligent relay system and the features ensure that there is no unnecessary stress on the motor or other parts. The superior system design ensures the baler will last for many years.
