APV500 Mill size vertical baling press

The APV500 Mill Size Vertical Baling Press delivers 50 tonnes of compaction force to produce true mill-size bales from a vertical footprint. Designed for facilities generating substantial volumes of cardboard and recyclable materials, the APV500 provides high bale mass and density without the space requirement of a horizontal baler.

Producing bales suitable for direct mill transport, this model is positioned above standard vertical balers in both compaction power and bale output. It is engineered for sites where transport efficiency, rebate value and floor space optimisation are operational priorities.

Key Performance Data

• Compaction Force: 50 tonnes
• Motor Power: 15kW
• Power Supply: 415v, 3 phase
• Bale Size: Approx. 1500mm x 1100mm x 750mm
• Typical Bale Weight: Up to 500kg (material dependent)

Position Within the Range

The APV500 is specified where standard vertical balers no longer deliver sufficient bale weight or density, but a fully automatic horizontal system is not required. It offers mill-size bale output from a compact installation, making it suitable for high-output sites operating within constrained internal layouts.

For facilities generating sustained recyclable volumes yet seeking to avoid the infrastructure investment of a horizontal baler, the APV500 provides a balanced solution.

Transport & Rebate Efficiency

Mill-size bales improve vehicle loading efficiency and reduce transport frequency. Higher bale density supports improved material value recovery where rebate structures reward consistent bale weight and quality.

Installation & Footprint

The vertical configuration allows installation in areas where floor space is limited but ceiling height is available. This makes the APV500 particularly suitable for warehouse and distribution environments where horizontal balers may not be practical.

Build & Compliance

• Manufactured in accordance with CE and UKCA requirements
• Designed to meet current machinery safety standards
• Industrial-grade hydraulic system

Service & Support

The APV500 is supported by a network of experienced engineers to ensure installation, commissioning and long-term operational reliability. Supplied with a 12 month warranty (model and installation dependent).
