- Significant risk of injury to workers cutting wires under high tension.
The Automated Debaler Solution
- A one-time investment that delivers continuous returns by minimizing payroll expenses.
- Provides a steady, predictable stream of loosened bottles, optimizing the entire line's efficiency.
- A fully enclosed, automated process creates a much safer working environment.
Simple Operation, Powerful Results
1. Bale Loading
Using a forklift, a full, compacted bale of PET bottles is dropped directly into the vertical infeed hopper.
2. Hook Engagement
Slow-moving, high-torque hooks mounted on a robust drum engage with the bale's binding wires.
3. Bale Deconstruction
As the drum rotates, the hooks pull and tear the wires, causing the highly-compacted bale to burst apart.
4. Material Discharge
The loosened bottles fall onto an integrated discharge conveyor below, feeding the next stage of the recycling line.
