Recycling Baler Working Principle

Our hydraulic recycling balers follow a simple four-step process to transform loose scrap into dense, transportable bales.

1

Material Loading

Loose scrap metal, cardboard, plastics, or other recyclables are loaded into the baler’s compression chamber — manually, by conveyor, or via grab crane.

2

Hydraulic Compression

The hydraulic ram applies up to 500+ tons of force, compressing material from multiple directions into a dense, uniform block or bale.

3

Bale Tying & Ejection

The finished bale is automatically tied with steel wire (or strapping) and ejected from the chamber, ready for stacking or transport.

4

Transport & Smelting

Dense bales are easily loaded onto trucks, reducing shipping costs by up to 80%. Uniform bale size ensures efficient furnace charging at smelting plants.

Built for Performance, Engineered to Last

Every ARZIR baler is designed, manufactured, and tested in our own factory — giving you direct access to a proven OEM partner.

Superior Compaction Force

Our balers deliver 10 to 500+ tons of hydraulic force, producing high-density bales that maximize the value of your scrap and minimize transport costs.

Recycling Baler Questions & Answers

Get quick answers to the most common questions about our recycling baler machines, ordering, and after-sales support.

What materials can a recycling baler process?
ARZIR recycling balers handle a wide range of materials including ferrous metals (steel, iron), non-ferrous metals (aluminum, copper, brass), cardboard/OCC, plastics (PET, HDPE, film), paper, textiles, and rubber. The specific material capacity depends on the baler model — scrap metal balers handle heavy metals, while vertical balers are ideal for lighter recyclables.
What is the difference between a vertical baler and a horizontal baler?
Vertical balers are compact, manually loaded machines suited for small to medium operations with lower volumes (1–5 tons/day). Horizontal balers are fully automatic, conveyor-fed systems designed for high-volume operations (10–50+ tons/day) with auto-tie and continuous baling capabilities. Horizontal balers offer higher throughput but require more floor space and investment.
How much compaction force do your balers provide?
ARZIR recycling balers range from 10 tons for light-duty vertical models to over 500 tons for heavy-duty scrap metal and car body balers. The required compaction force depends on your material type and desired bale density. Our engineers help you select the right force rating for your application.
Can you customize baler specifications for my operation?
Yes. ARZIR offers full baler customization including chamber dimensions, compaction force, bale size, cycle time, power supply voltage, control system language, paint color, and integration with conveyors or sorting lines. We design each solution based on your material type, throughput targets, and site layout.
What is the typical bale size and weight output?
Bale dimensions vary by model. Scrap metal balers typically produce bales from 400×400mm to 800×800mm cross-section. Car body balers compress full vehicles into blocks approximately 800×800mm × variable length. Bale weight ranges from 50 kg (vertical balers) to 2,000+ kg (heavy-duty horizontal balers). Custom bale sizes are available upon request.
What warranty and support do you provide with your balers?
All ARZIR balers include a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects. We provide lifetime technical support via phone, email, and video. Spare parts ship globally within 3–5 business days. On-site installation, commissioning, and operator training services are available upon request.
How long does delivery and installation take?
Standard baler models are typically ready for shipment within 15–25 working days after order confirmation. Customized units may require 30–45 working days depending on specifications. Sea freight delivery time varies by destination — usually 15–35 days. Our team provides full installation guidance, and on-site commissioning services can be arranged upon request.
What power supply does a recycling baler require?
ARZIR balers are configured for your local power supply specifications. Standard options include 380V/50Hz (China/EU), 440V/60Hz (Americas), and other voltages as required. Motor power ranges from 5.5 kW for light-duty vertical balers to 90+ kW for heavy-duty scrap metal and car body balers. Please specify your local voltage when requesting a quote.
Do your balers meet international safety certifications?
Yes. All ARZIR recycling balers are manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 quality management standards. CE certification is available for European market exports. Our machines also comply with relevant safety standards including emergency stop systems, overload protection, and safety interlocks on all access doors and feed openings.
What are the ongoing maintenance requirements?
ARZIR balers are designed for minimal maintenance. Routine tasks include hydraulic oil level checks and replacement every 2,000 hours, filter cleaning or replacement every 500 hours, lubrication of moving parts, and periodic inspection of wear liners. We provide a full maintenance manual with every machine and supply all spare parts globally, with critical parts typically shipped within 3–5 business days.
