The Balex 50 mill size baler is a heavy duty machine, equipped with cross cylinders for stable compression. It’s a compact machine and because it has a low overall height, it is very easy to locate in most environments.
Overall, it’s an excellent choice for a wide range of uses, especially for baling cardboard. It has a spacious chamber, and can be seen from the video, it deals with compacting large cardboard boxes with ease.
When the bale is ready to be ejected, the bale full light switches on automatically.
Bale ejection, a two-handed operation, is straightforward and the bale fits comfortably on a EUR pallet.

Despite the highly powerful compression and fast cycle time of just 28 seconds, Balex-50 has one of the lowest operating noise level in its class: 59 dBA.
Ideal Baler for cardboard and soft plastic
The Balex-50 is suitable for baling various types of materials including cardboard and plastics. Two separate programs for different materials ensure optimal use. Balex-50 features additional folding material retaining claws as standard. The Balex 50 can be supplied with 4.5 mm steel wires and a wire holder if required.
Intelligent SMART Technology
Balex utilizes a smart-central that has been tested in Europress’s range of compactors for a number of years, with a second generation version of this technology specifically for Balex now in use.
All the best functionality of the original smart technology design has been improved, with lots more additional functions added that have been specifically designed for balers. These improve safety, ease of use and durability of the machine.
Intelligent SMART technology contributes to more cost-efficient and safe operation. Device settings can be individually adjusted to best meet various waste management requirements. The balers monitor their usage and adapt to anomalies in order to protect both the operator and the components.
Optional Real Time Monitoring
The browser version of the SMART web portal allows you to view and manage your balers with a full range of analytics such as filling trends, fault history and emptying times. You can also see how many bales are ready for collections, helping both you are your recycler plan transport more efficiently.
The SMART web portal also monitors:
Number of empyings and times
Efficiency including real time fill levels
Emergency stop button activations and times
Operating hours
Location of equipment viewable on a map with map co-ordinates
Bale counter
Status of the machine including when it was last emptied
Indicator of when the service is due
Full data analytics – downloadable as Excel spreadsheet
The SMARTWASTE app enables you to monitor your balers in real time from your mobile phone.
Uses 19mm strap or 4.5m wire
You can use either 4.5m wire (with optional wire holder), or 19mm strap to tie off a bale. See our video below to see how to tie off a bale using wire.
If you would like to know more about our waste management products, the Balex 50 or any of our Vertical Balers please contact us.
If you produce multiple waste streams concurrently, such as cardboard and plastic, with the Bramidan 2-0F, rather than needing to wait until a bale of one material is finished before ejecting it, you can bale both materials at the same time, one in each chamber.
