LFA HB 1 BL

The LFA HB 1 BL is a large horizontal baler with bin lift designed for sites handling high volumes of recyclable material where mechanical feeding is required. It is well suited to continuous loading applications commonly found in warehousing, fulfilment centres, manufacturing sites and large distribution facilities.

The machine is designed to bale cardboard, plastic film, PET bottles, rigid plastics and paper. With a large 1500 x 800mm feed opening and an 80 second cycle time, the LFA HB 1 BL provides consistent throughput for day to day recycling operations. A 15kW motor generates 60 tonnes of compaction force, producing dense wire tied mill size bales typically weighing up to 550kg. The LFA HB 1 BL produces mill size bales required by recyclers and mills in order to offer the highest rebates available for your material depending on current market conditions.

This makes the LFA HB 1 BL suitable for operations generating large volumes of packaging waste such as cardboard and plastic film on a continual basis. It is also suited to large sites where wheelie bins are filled across the warehouse or factory and then brought back to a central baling area for processing, reducing manual handling and unnecessary movement of waste. This approach helps keep working areas tidy whilst remaining efficient in the processing of material. The LFA HB 1 BL is commonly used in warehousing, fulfilment centres, manufacturing sites and large distribution facilities and is supplied to sites across the UK where material is produced steadily throughout the day.

The LFA HB 1 BL is supplied with a hydraulic trunnion bin lift as standard enabling waste to be tipped directly into the feed opening. The integrated bin lift reduces manual handling by automatically lifting and emptying 1100L bins weighing up to 450kg using either a trunnion or comb lift system and is fitted with an all round safety cage. This configuration is typically chosen where site size and manual feeding limitations make hand loading impractical.

Where required, the baler can also be fed via a bin tipper positioned at a loading dock, allowing bins to be emptied directly into the machine without going outside the building. This supports internal waste handling and helps maintain workflow in busy warehouse environments.

Bale ejection is automatic via a hydraulic portcullis door. During ejection the full bale ejection system pushes the finished bale out in line with the opening door clearing the chamber fully. This allows different materials to be baled without contamination from the previous bale. A four wire horizontal tying system is used to allow straightforward and consistent bale tying.

The machine is fitted with a photoelectric sensor for automatic start up bale full indicators and simple operator controls. With an IP65 rating the LFA HB 1 BL can be installed indoors or outdoors.
