REP-TEC’s Twin Ram Balers Set New
Standards in Efficiency and Performance
for Plastic Recycling Companies
With the increasing demand for recycled plastics, the need for reliable and powerful baling technology becomes paramount. For MRF operators, high-density bales keep transport costs to a minimum and a high degree of purity, coupled with high throughputs increases value. REP-TEC, who design and manufacture fully automatic balers in Co. Tyrone, N. Ireland are helping operators achieve this and a lot more. Their high performance, twin ram balers are setting the standard for efficiency and performance in this industry, as evidenced in
This was evidenced at Berry Circular Polymers, where REP-TEC installed their twin ram baler. Berry, a global plastics packaging manufacturer, required a fast and efficient way to bale mixed PET and HDPE plastics at one of their UK
recent installations at Berry Circular Polymers and IPL Global.
High Density and Consistent Bales for Berry Global
A twin ram baler is ideal for processing hard plastics and expansive materials such as PET. The compaction is done against a solid fixed wall within the baling chamber, resulting in high compaction and heavier bales. The final bales are also consistent and uniform which helps reduce transport costs.
recycling facilities. The REP-TEC Samson model installed has an 80T compaction force and is powered by a very efficient 37kW hydraulic power unit. The bales produced
from this machine at Berry are of a high density, making them easier to handle and transport, resulting in cost savings. The large capacity also allows Berry to process more materials in a shorter amount of time.
