Not all recycling equipment performs the same in cold weather.
Older or undersized machines often struggle with:
- Slow cycle times
- Inconsistent bale density
- Electrical nu...
Balers are particularly sensitive to cold temperatures. Oil viscosity changes, seals stiffen, and components cycle slower if systems are not prepared.
Key winter maintenance ti...
Winter conditions introduce challenges that many recycling operations underestimate. Cold temperatures affect hydraulic systems, electrical components, lubricants, material beha...
Buying recycling equipment is only part of the solution.
Long-term success depends on how well that equipment is applied, supported, and maintained. That’s why Black River Trad...
Bale density is often oversimplified.
While pressure matters, it’s only one part of the equation. Real-world bale density is influenced by:
- Stroke length
- Platen design
- M...
Reconditioned recycling equipment has gained popularity for one key reason: value.
When rebuilt correctly, a reconditioned baler can deliver performance comparable to new equip...
