Corrugated Box & Printing Balers & Trim Systems
Corrugated box plants, converting facilities, folding carton plants, and commercial printers produce large volumes of trim waste, OCC, and defective material during production. Managing that waste efficiently is essential to controlling costs, recovering fiber value, and keeping production lines moving.
HMS designs, installs, and services complete baling and trim-handling systems for this sector - from high-throughput horizontal auto-tie balers for continuous trim lines to two ram balers for mixed fiber and packaging streams. We work with your team to assess your waste output, specify the right equipment, and configure a system that fits your production schedule and floor layout.

HMS works with a range of facilities across the corrugated, packaging, and printing industry - each with unique waste streams, throughput requirements, and equipment needs.
Equipment for Corrugated Box & Printing
Balers & Recycling Equipment
for Your Production Line
The right baler configuration makes a significant difference in labor costs and fiber recovery value. For continuous trim lines in box plants and converting facilities, a horizontal auto-tie baler tied directly into the line eliminates manual handling entirely. For facilities with mixed waste streams or varying volumes, a two ram baler or horizontal manual-tie offers the flexibility to handle multiple material types. HMS helps you select and size equipment for your specific throughput and material mix.
Horizontal Auto-Tie Balers
The standard for high-throughput corrugated and trim waste lines. Automated baling ties directly into your production line - eliminating manual handling and dramatically reducing labor on continuous OCC and fiber streams in box plants and converting facilities.
View Auto-Tie Balers →Two Ram Balers
Ideal for facilities with mixed fiber, OCC, and packaging material streams. Two ram balers handle high volumes of diverse materials - corrugated, mixed paper, film, and more - with maximum bale density and throughput.
View Two Ram Balers →Horizontal Manual-Tie Balers
Cost-effective baling for lower-volume box plants, folding carton facilities, and printers. A flexible option for operations managing OCC, trim waste, and mixed paper without the throughput demands of a fully automated line.
View Manual-Tie Balers →Vertical Balers
Space-saving baling for smaller print shops, folding carton operations, and facilities with lower daily cardboard and paper volume. Compact footprint with reliable performance.
View Vertical Balers →Shredders
Industrial shredders for trim waste, defective product, and confidential print material. Single-shaft and dual-shaft configurations for size reduction and material preparation ahead of baling.
View Shredders →Refurbished Equipment
Quality reconditioned balers rebuilt by HMS technicians - inspected, upgraded, and ready to work. A cost-effective option for facilities looking to minimize capital investment while maximizing performance.

Common Questions
Corrugated Box & Printing
Equipment FAQs
For high-volume continuous trim lines, a horizontal auto-tie baler is typically the best fit - it can be tied directly into your production line and runs automatically with minimal labor. For facilities with mixed material streams or varying volumes, a two ram baler or horizontal manual-tie offers more flexibility. HMS works with your team to assess your throughput and recommend the right configuration.
Yes. HMS designs and installs integrated systems where trim conveyors feed directly into the baler infeed - so waste from your converting or printing line moves automatically without manual handling. Our team handles the conveyor design, baler installation, and controls integration in-house.
HMS equipment handles OCC (old corrugated containers), corrugated trim and clippings, die-cut scrap, mixed and printed paper, plastic film, and stretch wrap - the full range of materials generated in corrugated box, converting, folding carton, and commercial printing operations.
