Gordon Waste Co. Buys Bollegraaf Baler

Gordon Waste Co. Inc., Columbia, Pa., has purchased a Bollegraaf HBC-140MR baler with an extra-wide feed hopper.

The HBC-140MR includes the Bollegraaf Information and Operating System (B.I.O.S.) and the Bollegraaf Operating Safety System (BOSS), which is designed to disconnect the machine mechanisms as soon as a person/operator enters the “danger zone” of the feeding area.

According to a press release from Stamford, Conn.-based Van Dyk Baler Corp., Bollegraaf’s North American distributor, “the HBC-140MR is capable of processing a broad spectrum of recycled fibers and containers at a high speed into very dense, homogenous packed bales while using minimal electrical power.”

The densely packed bales also save on transportation costs, making it ideal for processors who have high capacity and heavy bale weight requirements, according to Van Dyk. The adjustable length and expanded bale size of the HBC 140MR at 39 inches high by 44 inches wide also allows railcars to be maxed out and loaded more quickly and with fewer trips than with the smaller 30” high bales, the company says.
