Make, Model & Classification
Name | Baler: Pneumatic |
Model | Mil-tek Model H600 |
Classification | Baling |
Operations
Description or Purpose | For the baling of cardboard, plastic film and other compactable recyclables. |
Operating Principles | Convenient pop-up door design allows for use in tighter locations. This can also be programmed to automatically open upon completion of pressing cycle leaving door open as operator approaches with next load. Feed in large volumes of material with each loading, no need to wait once filled, walk away as the machine goes through its pressing cycle unattended. "Easyloop" wires for wire tie off. Bale out is mechanically assisted onto a pallet or trolley. Full training and photographic simple instructions are provided with every installation. Video training resources are also available. |
Additional Information | The H600 is a industrial scale baler making a mill sized bale tradable on the commodity market. It is a very versatile machine, utilised for a variety of baled materials. German engineered and built, with ultimate durability. Fully serviced by Mil-tek technicians in most areas. Two features make this machine unique. Firstly the low head height means the unit can be installed in normal ceiling height areas. Secondly the automatic pop-up door allows for great operator efficiency. |

Approvals Related to Use of Output
Important Note on Composting in NSW
In NSW, applying waste to land – including a processed waste such as compost - or using it as a fuel may trigger various regulatory requirements. Depending on the proposed use you may be required to comply with a Resource Recovery Exemption or need to hold an environment protection licence, and pay the waste levy.
While there is a Compost Exemption (2014) it is important to note that drying or dehydrating food waste, or any other compostable waste, is specifically excluded from consideration under this exemption. Drying or dehydrating equipment uses externally supplied energy to heat and ventilate food waste or any other compostable waste in order to rapidly dry the waste material over a short time period (typically 24 to 48 hours), either with or without the addition of an inoculum. If you are interested in this type of equipment you should refer to the resource recovery exemptions for information on lawful use of outputs.
If it is intended to use the material as a fuel, it must comply with the NSW Energy from Waste Policy Statement. http://www.epa.nsw.gov.au/waste/140056enfromwasteps.htm
