Baler
Thirteen vertical balers, each built around the material it compresses.
A vertical baler compresses loose waste into dense, tied bales. Those bales store, stack, and ship at a fraction of the original volume. Recyclers, retailers, manufacturers, and vessel operators all run them. The result is fewer collections and a waste stream that sells rather than costs.
Material behavior drives the design more than size does. Cardboard holds shape through fiber interlocking. Film springs back, tires refuse to stay compressed, and rigid plastics break before they fold. Torontech builds each machine in this range around one of those behaviors.
Applications
Balers serve any operation whose waste stream costs more to move than to process.
- Retail and Distribution: compacts inbound carton and stretch wrap at receiving docks and back-of-house areas.
- Material Recovery Facilities: densifies sorted fiber, film, and container fractions coming off the sorting line.
- Manufacturing and Converting: bales production offcuts, trim, and packaging waste at the point they arise.
- Textile and Apparel: compresses used clothing, wool, and fabric waste into export-ready bales.
- Scrap Metal and Non-Ferrous: handles thin sheet, aluminum profile, and copper wire for sale by weight.
- Tire and Rubber Recycling: reduces the storage footprint of casings ahead of processing or resale.
- Marine and Offshore: compacts galley and accommodation waste where storage space is fixed.
Baler Range
The lineup spans thirteen configurations. Press force matters less than the material each machine is built for.
| Model | Press Force | Material and Fit |
| ToronBale™ Dual | 3 tons | Twin chambers bale two waste streams side by side without cross-contamination. Suits vessels, hotels, and sites that sort at source. |
| ToronBale™ MW | 5 tons | Marine unit with a stainless inner box and enclosed frame for salt-air service. Under 2 m tall for low deckheads. |
| ToronBale™ M | 5, 10, 20 tons | Three compact sizes for small premises, with an optional liquid tray for damp waste. Fits a 900 mm footprint. |
| ToronBale™ DB | 15 tons | Briquettes baghouse dust into 90 or 140 mm cylinders, replacing manual bagging of loose fines. |
| ToronBale™ CB | 30, 50 tons | Cross-cylinder design keeps overall height at 2,225 mm for premises with low ceilings. |
| ToronBale™ VP | 30, 50 tons | Wide auto-lift feed door sized for bulky stretch wrap, shrink hood, and LDPE film. |
| ToronBale™ PC | 30, 40, 50, 60 tons | Feed openings to 1,800 mm take uncut cartons and press sheets. Bales to 700 kg for mill supply. |
| ToronBale™ AP | 30, 40, 50, 80 tons | Four sizes for aluminum cans and PET bottles, with an anti-rebound chamber built for hollow containers. |
| ToronBale™ TXT | 30, 50, 120, 150 tons | Hydraulic lifting chamber exposes all four faces for cross-tying and bagging used clothing and wool. |
| ToronBale™ VT | 120 tons | Split platens and retractable claws hold car, truck, and bus tires against rebound. Bales to 1.9 tonnes. |
| ToronBale™ Al | 120, 150 tons | Openings to 1,500 mm accept uncut extrusion lengths and assembled window frames. |
| ToronBale™ HV | 150, 200 tons | Dual-rated output for coir and palm fiber or thin iron sheet, with front and rear doors for strapping. |
| ToronBale™ VRP | 150, 200 tons | Force enough to buckle car bumpers and HDPE pallets, with right-angle doors for cross-strapping. |
How to Choose the Right Baler
- For cardboard where ceiling height is limited: choose the CB, whose cross-cylinder layout stays under 2,225 mm.
- For high-volume paper and OCC: choose the PC for its wide feed opening and mill-size bales.
- For stretch wrap and soft film: choose the VP, sized for bulky loose film rather than flat board.
- For beverage containers: choose the AP, built for the spring-back that cans and PET bottles produce.
- For used clothing, wool, or cotton: choose the TXT, whose lifting chamber allows cross-tying and bagging.
- For aluminum profiles and frames: choose the Al, tuned to the lower force aluminum needs.
- For thin steel sheet or natural fiber: choose the HV, which publishes separate bale weights per material.
- For bumpers, pallets, and crates: choose the VRP, which fractures rigid plastic rather than compressing it.
- For scrap tires: choose the VT, the only model with retainer claws and hydraulic oil cooling.
- For low daily volume or limited power: choose the M, drawing 1.5, 2.2, or 3 kW in a 900 mm footprint.
- For two separated streams in one footprint: choose the Dual.
- For vessels and offshore installations: choose the MW, built for corrosion and low deckheads.
- For dust collector discharge: choose the DB, which briquettes fines instead of bagging them.
