| 1 | Small Vertical Baler | 30–60 kg (66–132 lb) | 0.5–1.5 tonnes/hour | 4–7.5 kW Single- or three-phase options | Approx. 1.0–1.5 m² | Small retail stores, offices, restaurants, and compact warehouses | Low purchase cost, compact installation area, simple operation, and reduced loose-cardboard volume. | Manual loading and tying are common. Confirm chamber size, operator access, safety interlocks, and local voltage compatibility. |
| 2 | Medium Vertical Baler | 80–150 kg (176–331 lb) | 1–3 tonnes/hour | 7.5–15 kW Three-phase is common | Approx. 1.5–2.5 m² | Supermarkets, distribution centers, and medium-volume commercial facilities | Good balance between space efficiency, bale density, operating cost, and ease of installation. | Check the loading height, bale ejection method, cycle time, tie-wire or strap arrangement, and availability of replacement parts. |
| 3 | Heavy-Duty Vertical Baler | 180–350 kg (397–772 lb) | 2–5 tonnes/hour | 15–30 kW Three-phase power | Approx. 2.5–4.0 m² | Large retailers, manufacturing sites, and warehouses with steady cardboard accumulation | Produces heavier bales while using less floor space than many horizontal systems. | Requires stronger floor capacity, suitable lifting equipment, trained operators, and adequate overhead clearance. |
| 4 | Closed-End Horizontal Baler | 150–350 kg (331–772 lb) | 3–7 tonnes/hour | 15–45 kW Three-phase power | Approx. 8–18 m² | Recycling stations and facilities with regular medium-to-high OCC volumes | Higher productivity than vertical models, consistent bale dimensions, and suitable for organized material-flow layouts. | Needs more floor space and material-handling planning. Verify conveyor compatibility and the number of required tie points. |
| 5 | Automatic Horizontal Baler with Auto-Tie | 350–650 kg (772–1,433 lb) | 6–12 tonnes/hour | 30–75 kW Three-phase power | Approx. 20–45 m² | High-volume distribution centers, retail networks, and recycling collection facilities | Automated feeding and tying reduce manual labor and support a more continuous production flow. | Evaluate conveyor speed, sensor controls, tie-wire or plastic-strap consumption, maintenance access, and automation integration. |
| 6 | Two-Ram Horizontal Baler | 450–900 kg (992–1,984 lb) | 8–18 tonnes/hour | 45–110 kW Three-phase power | Approx. 30–65 m² | Large material recovery facilities and operations handling mixed recyclables | Handles bulky or variable materials well, provides high compaction force, and can reduce the need for pre-sorting. | Higher capital and maintenance requirements are typical. Confirm feed opening size, contamination tolerance, hydraulic service needs, and spare-parts support. |
| 7 | High-Throughput Channel Baler | 500–1,000 kg (1,102–2,205 lb) | 12–25 tonnes/hour | 75–160 kW Three-phase power | Approx. 45–90 m² | Large recycling plants, export-oriented operations, and facilities with continuous conveyor feeding | Designed for continuous high-volume operation, uniform bales, and efficient downstream transport. | Requires substantial infrastructure, stable material supply, qualified maintenance personnel, and detailed utility planning. |
