Refurbished Recycling Equipment Can Deliver Reliable Performance at a Lower Cost
Refurbished recycling equipment can be an excellent alternative to buying new when it has been professionally rebuilt, tested, and installed. For operations processing OCC, film, and mixed plastics, a properly refurbished baler system can deliver dependable performance, lower capital costs, and years of reliable service without sacrificing productivity.
That’s exactly what REI delivered with this recent installation, pairing a refurbished Harris Centurion 2-Ram baler with a refurbished steel belt conveyor to create a complete baling system designed for continuous material handling.
A Complete Refurbished Baling System
The customer needed additional baling capacity while making the most of their equipment budget. Rather than purchasing an entirely new system, they selected a professionally refurbished solution from REI that combines proven equipment with expert rebuilding and installation.
The project included:
- Refurbished Harris Centurion 2-Ram Baler
- Refurbished Steel Belt Conveyor
- Integrated conveyor-to-baler material handling
- Installation and system commissioning by REI
The finished system efficiently processes old corrugated cardboard (OCC), plastic film, and mixed plastics, creating dense, uniform bales ready for storage, transportation, and recycling.
Why a 2-Ram Baler for OCC and Mixed Plastics?
Unlike single-ram balers that are often best suited for one primary material stream, a 2-ram baler offers greater flexibility for facilities processing multiple recyclable materials.
For operations handling OCC, plastic film, and mixed plastics, the Harris Centurion provides:
- Consistent, high-density bale production
- Continuous material processing
- Reliable operation under demanding production schedules
- Flexibility to handle changing material streams
- Reduced material handling throughout the baling process
Combined with the steel belt conveyor, material moves smoothly through the system with minimal manual handling, helping improve overall operating efficiency.
Project Summary
This installation demonstrates how professionally refurbished equipment can provide outstanding value without compromising performance.
By combining a refurbished Harris Centurion 2-Ram baler with a refurbished steel belt conveyor, REI delivered a dependable baling system capable of efficiently processing the waste, while helping the customer maximize their investment.
