Orwak introduces model 5040 - a PET/can crusher
The PETrecycling.cz assessment based on R&D up-to-day results is, that it should be made clear, that all beverage containers, e.g. PET bottles, ALU cans and glass bottles, that are commercially imported into Czech Republic or sold here should be included in return systems with deposits - to encourage the consumers to take the bottles back

Orwak is introducing its newest product, the Orwak 5040. The compact sized vertical baler is geared to handle both PET plastic and cans.

Orwak 5040 – a specially designed PET/can crusher

 The company states that the baler is the only compact sized vertical baler in the market that can compact PET bottles with the caps on.

The inspiration for the new baler came from a special order from Tomra Pacific’s California subsidiary, which operated the state’s rePLANET program to handle collected containers through California’s Redemption Value (CRV) program.

To facilitate the collection of CRV-containers, rePLANET recycling centers were established in 2007 at strategic locations close to malls and supermarkets throughout the state. During daytime hours staff is on hand at the centres to assist the consumers. To be able to handle and store the growing volumes of collected PET bottles and aluminium cans the centers needed a compaction solution. Orwak - belonging to the Tomra group - got the assignment to develop a special compactor for this purpose. As space is limited in the recycling centres, one of the requirements was to design a small machine that takes up minimum floor space. The result was a twin chamber baler that looks like a small Orwak 5070.

To compact aluminium cans a strong and robust machine is needed. Orwak 5040 makes a stackable compact bale of aluminium cans. No tying is needed to keep the bales together, but they will easily break apart if required at a processing centre. One bale of 35 cl cans contains approximately 650 cans and the compaction ratio when crushing cans in Orwak 5040 is 6:1

The process of compacting PET bottles is divided into two phases. In the first phase needles come out of the press plate, the press plate goes down and perforates the bottles. When the press plate goes down the second time the needles have been pulled in and the PET bottles are compacted with full force. Due to this two-step-process Orwak 5040 is able to crush PET bottles with the caps on, which is a unique feature for such a small vertical baler! The compaction ratio when compacting PET bottles is up to 10:1 and one bale of PET contains 350-500 bottles depending on the se of the bottles.

The bale height can be adjusted to meet individual requirements in the range 350-550 mm. Orwak 5040 produces small (400 mm x 400 mm x 350-550 mm) and light (10-14 kg) bales, which are convenient to handle and to store. A panel with buttons indicating the PET mode and the can mode makes the operation flexible.
