Developed for high density baling of both ferrous and non-ferrous metal, MAC’s Model 5200 excels in a broad range of materials including loose steel sheet, clips and trim stock. A real workhorse, the Model 5200 baler is capable of producing bales measuring 16-inches square by variable lengths at a rate of 55 - 60 per hour. Bale densities vary according to material but average in the 165 lb./cu. ft. range for ferrous material and 50-65 lb./cu. ft. for aluminum.
Designed for ease of use, the MAC Model 5200 offers both semi- and full-automatic operating modes. Built to with stand the rigors of metal baling operations, all surfaces which come in contact with moving plates are lined with a wear plate of abrasion-resistant,high-alloy steel. Each of the two rams is stress-relieved and features box-type steel weldments for added durability. As with all MAC equipment,mobile models are available.
Oversized material is first downsized by a shear bar capable of producing a shearing force in excessof 380 tons. Doing so eliminates the need for most pre-processing, thereby further streamlining scrap processing operations and improving hourly tonnages.
