Paper Baler Machine
A Paper Baler Machine is a powerful and efficient waste-handling solution used to compress large volumes of scrap or used paper into compact bales for easy handling, storage, and recycling. It helps reduce waste volume, lowers disposal costs, and supports sustainable operations in various industries.
Description
The Paper Baler uses hydraulic power to compress different types of waste paper — such as newspapers, cartons, office paper, shredded documents, and cardboard — into tightly packed, uniform bales. These machines can be manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic depending on operational requirements.
They are available in vertical and horizontal models, with varying bale sizes and output capacities.
