New EcoPAC Baler Densifies Material into Bagged Bales

The new EcoPAC Baler from converting machinery manufacturer Precision AirConvey Corp., Newark, Del., is now available. The EcoPAC features a proprietary, rotary process that is designed to automatically densify waste into a bagged, palletized cube for easy waste removal via lift truck.

The EcoPAC is designed to bale edge trim, label matrix and other converting, printing, mailing and packaging waste. The machine also collects and densifies the paper, plastic film, PSA or other waste material conveyed from a pneumatic trim system used in conjunction with a material & air separator while diverting the air to an acceptable location. According to Precision AirConvey Corp., when the door is opened, a compact cube of baled waste compressed neatly inside a sealed plastic bag is revealed set atop a standard pallet.

Developed in accordance with a variety of OSHA directives and standards, the company says the EcoPAC Baler is designed as a sealed, self-contained baling system that prevents both the waste and associated dust from escaping into the plant or outer environment while quietly operating within permissible sound exposure levels for worker safety and comfort, even in continuous operation. The company says its slim EcoPAC Baler operates on a compact footprint that requires 80 percent less floor space than many horizontal balers. By enclosing the waste in a bag, the baler eliminates the need for manual wire tying, along with inherent safety issues, the company says.

The baler is available with a new, companion automated trim system from $38,000.00, or for retrofit onto existing trim handling systems from any manufacturer.
