Car & Tire Baler Machine Capacities
The capacity of car and tire baler machines can vary widely based on their design, model, and intended use.
Small-Scale Balers
- Typically process 2-4 bales per hour
- Common in local tire shops and small recycling centers
- Vertical balers compress 80-120 car tires per bale
- Complete 2-3 cycles per hour
For instance, a basic vertical baler designed for car passenger tires can compress around 80-120 car tires into a single bale in one cycle.
Industrial-Grade Balers
- High-capacity models process 6-8 bales per hour
- Used in large-scale recycling plants
- Handle thousands of tires daily
- Produce bales weighing 1000-1300 kg
Bale Size Specifications
Small Balers: 60" (L) × 30" (W) × 24-50" (H)
Industrial Balers: 1150-1800mm (L) × 1100-1150mm (W) × 750-1450mm (H)
Tire Type Considerations
- Some balers specialize in car tires only
- Multi-purpose models handle car and light-truck tires
- Larger truck tires may require pre-treatment
- Sidewall cutters often needed for heavy-duty tires
Capacity varies significantly between small-scale and industrial balers, with bale sizes and processing rates adapting to different operational needs and tire types.
