CAN/BOTTLE CRUSHER
The Bulkmatech BC-Series Can or Bottle Baler is a machine designed to compress large quantities of various types of cans and bottles, including those containing liquid products.
The baler can handle drinking cans, paint tins, aluminum or tin cans, as well as plastic PET, LD and PVC bottles. It is primarily used for recycling purposes to reduce transportation costs, minimize storage space and reduce the carbon footprint.
The machine is also very effective in separating food products from packaging material, allowing for recycling of the packaging and disposal of food waste as either, Bio compost, pig feed or general waste.
This is very useful for Food or Pharmaceutical manufactures.
The BC 400 can destroy all defective product and seperate from the packaging material all on site. Guaranteeing the manufacture a “cradle to grave” philosophy.
The baler is equipped with a press force of 26 tons and is available in different models with varying bale size and weight, depending on the model. For example, the BC-400 model can create a bale size of 40 x 40 x 7mm and consists of up to approximately 260 cans, with a weight of approximately 7.5kgs. The machine is available in two models, with or without liquid extraction upgrade, and two power options: 3 phase- 380V or 14hp Petrol engine BC-400 or BC-450.
