This Horizontal Foam Baler (adapted for Foam / Fiber / Film) is loaded with awesome power, speed and special features for facilitating the baling of these materials.  The Foam / Film / Fiber ('3F') Balers have many important design features that separate them from other balers.

• Bale weights are heavier which means lower hauling costs and better transport efficiencies.
• When compared to a typical baler (trying to do the job of a specialty baler such as this) the 3F balers can produce heavy, dense bales in about one-fourth or even one-fifth the time of a typical baler.
• The 3F balers use a longer cylinder and stroke so that more air is forced out of the material as it is compressed. Thus, the longer stroke provides bale densities that are much higher.
• As the material is compressed there is 'memory' and retention factors that must be addressed which are handled much better than a standard baler. Special retention dogs (in conjunction with other unique features) help to overcome these critical elements.
• The 3F balers also have special shearing capabilities not found on typical balers.
• Also integrated in these balers is a special way to help keep material from becoming wedged or trapped in the baler (which could otherwise cause jamming).
• In-feed openings are larger than the size of typical baler openings. Oftentimes the smaller in-feed openings mean that a shredder must be added to the baling system in order to reduce the size of the foam particulates being baled.
• In addition to the above overview, there are many other differences in the design that separate the 3F balers from other balers (some of which are proprietary features).
