Specification: | This baler is of the self-contained type, suitable for baling heavy steel scrap. | |
Process: | The initial compression would be by means of the hinged cover, which gives a compression of 12″ over the box area. The secondary compression would be by means of a thrust face moving along the axis of the box, whilst the final compression head would move at right angles across the box centre line. | |
