How Many Factors Affecting the Production Capacity of Balers

How Many Factors Affecting the Production Capacity Of Balers 

Balers producity capacity: based on the bale weight and the number of bales per hour.

Baler production capacity = bale weight x the number of bales per hour

1. Bale weight: Based on bale density and bale volume. It also depends on the weight of the scrap that the operator puts in the feeding box/chamber, if 500 kg of scrap is put in the , feeding box/chamber, the bale weight is 500 kg. If 1000 kg of scrap is put in the feeding box/chamber, the bale weight is 1000 kg.

1.1. Bale volume: based on the bale (cross-sectional/section) size and the bale length.

1.2. The bale (cross-sectional) size is fixed.

1.3. Bale length: based on the fianl compression/main cylinder force and the amount of scrap that the operator puts into the feeding box/chamber.

bale volume = (cross-setional) size x bale length

 bale weight = bale volume x bale density

2. the number of bales per hour is decided by the average time to compress a bale. the average time to compress a bale includes: feeding material time, the single cycle time and bale out time.

2.1. feeding material time: depends on the feeding materials method, and the level and skill of the operator.

2.2. Single cycle time, which you can also understand as the machine action time for compressing a bale. Generally, it is considered to be the time from the closing of the door cover to the opening of the door cover. It also affected by diffeent types of scrap materials, feeding box sizes, etc.

2.3. Bale out time: the time to the bale is taken out, depends on the bale out methods of Y81 series balers and baler models, the time is basically fixed.

the number of bales per hour = 60 ÷ the average time to compress a bale (unit: min)

the average time to compress a bale (unit: min) = feeding materials time + single cycle time+ bale out time
