A tire baler is a machine that compresses scrap tires into dense, rectangular blocks (called bales) to reduce their bulk for storage, transport, and recycling. These machines utilize a powerful hydraulic system to overcome the natural elasticity of rubber, creating easy-to-handle bales that can be used as construction fill or further processed into other rubber products. A scrap tire/tire baler is a hydraulic baler suitable for baling rubber, truck tires, car tires, and other similar materials for recycling.
What is a tyre baler?
A tyre baler is a specialised piece of waste management equipment designed to compress and compact large truck tyres into dense, manageable bales. These powerful machines use hydraulic rams to apply significant compressive force, reducing the volume of bulky tyres by up to 80%.
Which Tire Baler Machine is Right for You?
The Horizontal Tire Baler: For Maximum Throughput
This is the ultimate choice for high-volume recycling centers. It’s designed for speed and automation.
- How it Works: Tires are loaded onto a conveyor and automatically fed into the chamber. A powerful hydraulic ram compacts them horizontally into a dense bale. The operator then straps the finished bale for ejection.
- Best For: Businesses that process a large quantity of tires daily and want to minimize manual labor.
- Key Features: High capacity (5 bales/hour), automatic loading, powerful 45kw motor, and an exceptional 3-year warranty.
The Vertical Tire Baler: For Power and Value
This machine is the definition of cost-effective power. It provides the same 200-ton compaction force in a space-saving, vertical design.
- How it Works: The operator manually loads tires into the top of the chamber. A large platen presses down vertically, crushing the tires into a tight block. Strapping is also done manually.
- Best For: Start-ups, smaller recycling yards, or businesses where space and budget are primary concerns.
- Key Features: Compact footprint, highly affordable, simple operation, and produces heavy bales (approx. 1200kg).
