Yes, you can compact aluminium waste in our X30 and X50 balers.
To get the tightest bales, it is important that the aluminium is compacted very hard from the very first press cycle. Our X-series balers have long internal cylinders and can reach the bottom of the baler with a very hard press force. This is called a long stroke. The result is optimally compressed aluminium waste, even if the baler is almost empty.
We recommend that you put a layer of cardboard on the top and at the bottom of the bale to keep it stabile. You may also benefit from wrapping plastic film around the finished bale.
