The horizontal hydraulic baler is the baling press with continuous feeding and automatic lateral discharge for recycling centers, cardboard factories and waste management operators that need continuous production with no stops for manual removal.
The horizontal hydraulic baler is available in 6 variants: 60, 80, 100, 120, 160 and 200 tonnes, with power of 18,5kW (60 and 80t), 22kW (100 and 120t) and 37kW (160 and 200t).
The horizontal hydraulic baler has a continuous feeding system in which the material is introduced from the side or from the top into the pressing chamber, while the bale, formed and tied automatically, is discharged horizontally with no operator intervention, allowing continuous-flow operation across multiple shifts. Transport, assembly and commissioning included. 60-month warranty. Available variants — horizontal hydraulic baler

The horizontal hydraulic baler is selected at the quotation stage according to the type of material, the hourly processing volume and the desired bale dimensions. Free technical consultancy available. Advantages of the horizontal hydraulic baler
• Continuous-flow operation with automatic bale discharge — maximum productivity with no stops — the horizontal hydraulic baler is designed for uninterrupted production: the material is fed while the previous bale is discharged automatically, with no manual intervention. The difference from the vertical press: the horizontal hydraulic baler requires no stop for the manual removal and tying of each bale, ensuring significantly higher productivity at high volumes.
• 6 variants 60–200 tonnes — the exact force for optimal bale density — the horizontal hydraulic baler covers from 60 tonnes for medium-sized recycling centers, up to 200 tonnes (37kW) for municipal waste management installations. Selecting the appropriate variant of the horizontal hydraulic baler allows the maximum density required by the recyclable material buyer to be achieved, which directly determines the price received per tonne.
• Power 18,5–37kW — a motor sized for continuous production across multiple shifts — the horizontal hydraulic baler has motors with power proportional to the pressing force, designed for pressing cycles repeated continuously with no thermal overload. The 37kW power of the 160 and 200 tonne variants of the horizontal hydraulic baler ensures stable operation and the service life of the hydraulic system under the continuous production conditions specific to sorting and recycling centers with a 2–3 shift work schedule.
• Reproducible bale dimensions — stable stacking and optimized transport — the horizontal hydraulic baler produces bales with constant and reproducible dimensions from one cycle to another, because the pressing chamber has fixed dimensions and the hydraulic pressure is controlled automatically. The uniformity of the horizontal hydraulic baler's bales allows them to be stacked stably in the warehouse and the truck to be loaded optimally, maximizing the tonnage of material per transport run and reducing the logistics cost per tonne of recyclable delivered.
• Robust industrial construction — durability for environments with dust and abrasive material — the horizontal hydraulic baler is built for the difficult industrial environments specific to recycling centers: dust, impurities, abrasive material, variable humidity and intensive use. The hydraulic system of the horizontal hydraulic baler is sealed and protected against contamination by dust and material fragments, and the welded structure of thick steel provides the rigidity needed to withstand forces of up to 200 tonnes without distortions that would compromise the bale dimensions. 60-month UZINEX warranty, national technical support 24–48 hours.
Applications — horizontal hydraulic baler
Municipal and industrial waste sorting and recycling centers use the horizontal hydraulic baler as the central piece of equipment in the baling line, positioned at the end of the sorting belt. Pre-sorted materials — cardboard, PET, HDPE, paper, textiles — are fed directly into the horizontal hydraulic baler and come out as automatically tied bales, ready for storage or delivery to final processors.
Cardboard and paper factories and wholesale distributors with large volumes of returnable packaging use the horizontal hydraulic baler for the continuous compaction of cardboard waste generated in the production process or at goods receipt. The continuous, stop-free production of the horizontal hydraulic baler is essential to keep pace with the rate of waste generation on production lines or in high-throughput distribution warehouses. Frequently asked questions about the horizontal hydraulic baler
What is the main difference between the horizontal hydraulic baler and the vertical press?
The horizontal hydraulic baler has automatic bale discharge and continuous-flow operation — suitable for large volumes and uninterrupted production. The vertical baling press requires manual removal of the bale after each cycle, is more compact and cheaper, suitable for small and medium volumes in spaces with limited height. UZINEX consultancy helps in choosing the right type according to the daily volume of material and the conditions of the available space. Is the horizontal hydraulic baler eligible for European funding?
Yes. UZINEX is a member of the Enterprise Europe Network and delivers equipment for European-funded projects. The horizontal hydraulic baler can be included in SEAP/SICAP in recycling and waste management projects. Leasing and credit options on the UZINEX credit and leasing page.
