The Mil-tek 305 is a medium sized flexible baling machine, which can fit into small locations where efficient compaction of waste is needed to keep a clean and safe working environment. The deep pressing chamber and the wide door opening makes the Mil-tek 305 a popular choice for businesses and organisations with medium amounts of waste. The safety and the operational features makes the Mil-tek 305 an ergonomic, easy, clean and safe machine to use. The Mil-tek 305 can be situated close to where waste is generated, and its simple design means can be operated by any regular staff member: You simply put in your material, close the door, pull the handle and let the machine do the real work. Mil-tek machines have an extremely fast pressing cycle of between 10-20 seconds. The Mil-tek 305 is powered by compressed air, either directly from an existing air-line or from a compressor supplied by Mil-tek. This means that the Mil-tek 305 is free of both electrical and hydraulic components, minimizing the risk of fire and completely eliminating the risk of oil contamination. An automated bale-out function makes it fast, safe and easy to empty the baler.
Ferguson Plarre Bakehouse is a family-owned bakery in Australia. They partnership with Mil-tek has revolutionised their waste process, facilitating commodity income and reducing their carbon footprint by around 75%.
National Foods is a dairy & beverage company in Australia. Their use of Mil-tek balers helps maximise efficiency, allowing them to recycling 90% of their plastic and cardboard.
Dorset Cereals are a muesli manufacturer and exporter from the UK. They chose a Mil-tek baler to reduce their waste costs and have benefited from its hygienic nature.
A Mil-tek technician will guide you through installation, which is done by simply connecting your 305 Baler to a compressed air supply. You are now ready to start minimizing your waste.
Fill the chamber with cardboard or plastic and close the door. Once the handle is pressed down, the machine is activated and the minimizing has begun. Repeat until the baler is full.
When the baler is ready to be emptied, tie the bale using the banding, open the lower door and press the Bale Out button to release the bale. You are now ready to start a new bale!
Bales can be stacked and stored until you have enough to have them collected by your local recycler. They take up no more floor space than a sheet of newspaper.
A Mil-tek consultant will guide you in making this decision. What you need to know is the approximate amount of e.g. cardboard you generate every day, in what stream and in what sizes it comes. In addition to this you should know how much space you have available for a machine. This basic information combined with your business set-up forms the basis for evaluating which model machine you need.
Your internal working processes and the data available on your waste streams will provide you with that answer. Together with Mil-tek, we will ensure you find the optimal spot in your workplace.
The machine can stand either indoors or out - most important is that you place the machine so that you sort your waste at source. If you place the machine outside it must be under a roof. Be aware that cold weather conditions can influence the performance of the machine. Your Mil-tek consultant will help analysing the best place to install the machine.
As they are air-powered (pneumatic) rather than hydraulic, Mil-tek balers are extremely quiet. If you have an existing air-line you simply plug the machine and then your existing compressor acts as the engine. If you need to have a compressor installed, a Mil-tek technician will ensure that the compressor is placed at a distance from the machine and then install an air-hose between the compressor and the machine.
Ideal for baling plastic packaging typically used in the transportation and protection of clothing and consumable items. Constant pressure ensures an extremely dense bale is produced that is both easy to handle and easy to recycle. The baler can also be used to recycle smaller volumes of cardboard in small/medium supermarkets, convenience stores and general retail outlets.
Despite its small footprint, the 305 baler has a large door opening and a deep chamber, enabling whole boxes to be placed directly into the baler. Plastic packaging stored in plastic bag stands can be placed directly into the baler saving time and therefore cost when dealing with packaging waste.
The modern waste technique of segregating and baling packaging waste using strategically placed recycling points has resulted in a significant increase in productivity across a range of organisations. A Mil-tek 305 baler accompanied by a small plastic baler (such as a model 102 or 205 baler), and strategically placed plastic bag stand can vastly improve logistics where a steady stream of packaging waste is created in multiple areas.
