Box baler TONNA E60 3 tons, 30kN, bale 60kg

TONNA E60 waste baler

TONNA E60 is a vertical waste baler for cardboard and plastic film. Waste that would fill a container loose comes out as a tied bale that stacks on a pallet and is worth money at the recycler instead of costing money to take away.

It presses with 3 tons (30 kN) and makes bales of 30 to 50 kg in cardboard and 40 to 60 kg in film. The bale measures 70 × 50 × 70 cm; its width and depth are fixed and the operator sets the height.

A cycle takes 27 seconds and uses 0.008 kWh. The machine starts the press by itself when the upper door is closed, and tells the operator when the bale is full, that is the whole operation.

It runs from an ordinary 230 V socket with a 1.5 kW motor and draws 11 A. The press stands 83 × 70 × 193 cm, weighs 250 kg and is quiet at 68 dB measured a metre away.

Where the TONNA E60 is used

The TONNA E60 waste baler is used in retail, grocery, catering, hospitality, warehouses and light manufacturing. It is suited for businesses that generate regular volumes of cardboard boxes and plastic film from packaging, shipping, or food service. Typical applications include back rooms of shops, storerooms in restaurants, small distribution centers, and production areas where space is limited and waste must be managed daily.

The baler fits into a workflow where packaging waste is produced throughout the day.

Technical specifications

What a baler saves

• Less volume, fewer collections. Loose cardboard is mostly air. Baled, the same waste takes a fraction of the space and the container is emptied far less often.
• Waste that pays. A recycler takes clean, tied bales of cardboard and film and pays for them; loose mixed waste is a disposal cost.
• One person, no training. Load, close the upper door and the press starts. The machine says when the bale is full.
• Two materials. Separate modes for cardboard and for plastic film, so each is baled the way it holds together.
• An ordinary socket. 230 V, 1.5 kW, 11 A on a C 16 breaker. No three-phase supply and no compressed air.
• It fits in a back room. 83 × 70 × 193 cm and 250 kg, quiet enough at 68 dB to stand near a shop floor or a kitchen.

How a bale is made

1. Thread the straps through the holes in the lower door and lay them across the chamber.
2. Open the upper door, load the cardboard or the film, and close the door: the platen goes down by itself.
3. Repeat until the machine shows that the bale is full.
4. Raise the platen, pass the straps over the material, close the door and let the platen come down again, then tie the straps with the platen down.
5. Raise the platen, open both doors standing to the side, and take the bale out onto a trolley or a pallet.

Operation and maintenance

• Stand to the side. Open the doors from the side of the machine. A pressed bale can push the door open as the material expands.
• Bale height. Width and depth are fixed; the height is yours. For a smaller bale, hold the green button for five seconds and the platen stops lower.
• Tie with the platen down. The straps are tied while the platen is still pressing. Tied after it is raised, the bale opens up.
• Indoors and dry. The machine is built for a closed, dry room on a stable level floor, with ventilation.
• Oil. Eight litres of ISO/DIN 6743/4 class oil. Check the level and look for leaks at the daily check.
• Electrics. 230 V through a plug, on a C 16 breaker, connected by a qualified electrician. IP56 is protection against dust and water jets, not an invitation to hose the machine down.

Before you order

The price is on this page. A baler is bought for the waste you actually produce, so check these before you order:

• How much waste. A bale of 30–50 kg of cardboard replaces a lot of loose volume. Count the containers you fill in a week.
• Cardboard or film. The machine has a mode for each. Say which of the two you have more of.
• Where the bale goes. 70 × 50 × 70 cm and up to 60 kg: it needs a pallet, a trolley and a route out of the building.
• The room. 83 × 70 × 193 cm and 250 kg on a level floor, indoors, dry and ventilated. The ceiling has to clear 193 cm plus the open door.
• The supply. A 230 V socket on a C 16 breaker within reach of the machine.
• Straps. The bale is tied by hand with straps threaded through the lower door. Plan them as a consumable.
