A vertical downstroke baler is a good solution for processing small volumes of recyclable materials, typically processing two bales or less per day. Materials are fed manually into the baling chamber prior to compaction. Vertical baling machines can compress corrugated and OCC, plastic wrap and bottles, textiles, and other bulky waste in a small footprint. Their compact size, versatility, and lower cost makes them perfect for many different applications, including big box and grocery stores, breweries and bottling plants, manufacturing facilities, department stores, thrift stores, and other retail applications. Work with AES to find the right vertical baler to boost your recycling program’s revenue and minimize your maintenance and operating costs.

Horizontal balers are designed for continuous use. They can be set up for manual or automatic feeding via a conveyance system to a baler feed chute. They offer significant labor savings over a vertical baler. A wider range of materials can be processed, including cardboard boxes and corrugated scrap, paper trim, plastic containers, aluminum cans and textiles. Single ram horizontal balers are built to handle high volumes of materials and come in both close door and open-ended styles. Some models are available with automatic wire tiers while others will only allow for manual tying of the finished bale, which is more labor intensive. With so many models and styles available, it is vital to select the right baler to match your material and production needs. AES provides expert guidance and advice to make sure you get the right baler for your application.

Single ram closed door balers are designed to bale a wide variety of materials but are used most often for corrugated boxes and paper trim. They are ideal for many printing and paper converting or box-making applications, as well as distribution centers and document destruction facilities. You can optimize efficiency with automated feeding by conveyor, cart dumper, or air conveyance system. Single ram, closed door balers require manual tying of the bales.

Single ram auto-tie balers are best suited for baling high volumes of scrap corrugated and paper. Auto-tie balers can offer significant labor savings over manual tie machines. There are a wide variety of models available to process a diverse range of materials, including box and corrugated, paper trim, wastepaper, plastics, aluminum cans and other non-ferrous scrap metals. Single ram auto tie balers are used at recycling centers, printing plants, box manufacturing, document destruction facilities and distribution centers.

Two-ram balers are high-volume, multi-purpose recycling machines that produce high-density bales. Two-ram balers are used to process multiple types and grades of materials, such as paper, plastic, corrugated, aluminum cans and non-ferrous materials, and solid waste. They are ideal for material recovery centers or MRF’s, municipal or private recycling centers, and landfills. With many styles and feature options to consider, turn to the experts at AES to help you select a two-ram baler that meets your specific needs and exceeds your expectations.

Briquetting presses and cubers are machines that make processing finely textured materials more manageable. They help to densify materials like fine paper dust, sawdust and other particulate matter into bricks or cubes, which can then be further processed, pulped, or incinerated as refuse derived fuels (RDF). Briquetting systems can be integrated with a dust collector to manage the ‘fines’ from a hanging bag system. The cubes or ‘pucks’ can often be recycled or pulped to make new paper products.

Combustible dusts are one of the biggest safety risks for companies that manufacture or convert paper and handle grains, powders, and many other materials. Static electricity, friction, and sparks in the production environment are all potential ignition sources for dust and can result in deadly explosions and fire. That is why industrial dust collection systems like those offered by AES are a smart investment for companies whose operations expose them to this type of danger.

Air conveyance systems use high-velocity air to transport materials from process to process within a system. Specialized fans and blowers create the airflow needed to move the materials through enclosed metal ducting, often terminating in an air separator. Additional components such as in-line cutters, shredders, booster fans, intake hoods, and metering conveyors can be used to introduce materials into the air conveyance system. These systems are also used to sort and separate different materials from one another based on relative size or density. This allows for efficient conveyance in the airstream and can reduce or prevent clogs in the ductwork. Air conveyance systems are used to convey a variety of manufacturing scrap and byproducts in industries like packaging and paper converting, corrugated box manufacturing, printing and finishing, recycling and solid waste, and others.

Enhance the performance of your air conveyance system with an efficient, economical fresh air intake system from AES. Traditional air conveying systems rob manufacturing plants of conditioned air, increasing overall heating and cooling costs. This can create a negative pressure effect inside the building, making doors difficult to open.

Air material separators and industrial fans are the key components of pneumatic conveyance systems, providing conveyance power on the front end of the scrap removal process and managing scrap on the back end before baling or compacting. Selecting the right sizes and types of air material separators and industrial fans is a critical decision and can impact both scrap conveyance system performance and day-to-day operations. Let the experts at AES help you choose the right equipment for your application and facility. We have decades of experience helping customers from a wide variety of industries better manage their scrap, trim, and manufacturing byproducts with our robust air conveyance systems.
