TECHNOLOGY
and strong, sturdy
materials, makes the
new industrial Hi-X
Compactor ideal for
baling fine materials
like RDF (refuse derived
fuel) and bin waste, as
well as compost and
saw dust.
BUILT TO LAST
The Hi-X Compactor is a further
development and improvement of our best
compactors. The unique design of
technical details like auto greasing of all
bushings and auto oiling of chains, makes
the compactor exceptionally durable. The
results are low maintenance and life cycle
costs, which gives major advantages for
your production.
MULTIFUNCTIONAL
The Orkel Compactor is able to handle a
wide variety of bulk or chopped material.
It is currently in use for more than 25
different materials, and still expanding to
new areas of use. Settings for different
materials can easily be adjusted using the
touch-screen interface.
TAILOR MADE TO MEET YOUR NEEDS
Orkel takes great pride in offering highly
customized machines tailor-made to
meet all your need. We facilitate the
adaption to your existing production line
and offer completely integrated solutions
that fit seamlessly into your existing
facilities, conveyor belts, safety systems,
etc. Varieties like different feeding tables
and mobile or stationary versions are
among the many customizations we
make to optimize the Compactor for our
customers.

HOW IT WORKS
1. TRANSPORT TO CHAMBER
2. COMPRESSION
3. WIDE FILM WRAPPING
4. WRAPPING
Bulk material is loaded either from
a factory conveyor belt, front-end
loader or directly offloaded from a
lorry. Material is transported from the
feeding table by an elevator into a
compression chamber, using a robust
chained conveyor system with steel
carriers.
Belts inside the chamber prevent
spillage. Hardox material chamber
ensures durability and a long lifetime
of the unit. Automatically lubricated
buchings prevents dust and moisture damage.
Initially, the bales are wrapped in wide
film to allow the bales to maintain
their shape and density. An air pressure cleaning system ensures high
quality operation at all times. Using
net instead of wide film is of cause
possible.
A predefined number of layers of film
seals the material in a compact bale
on the wrapping table, maximizing
the storage and handling potential.

Orkel Hi-X Control System
Mobility
Intelligent and robust control system
with intuitive touch screen interface.
The Orkel Hi-X can be operated as a stationary installation, alternatively as a mobile unit for operation in different locations.
The baling process is fully automatic,
but you may adjust the speed of the
feeding, chamber preasure, wrapping
film overlap and number of layers,
according to your needs.
Visit our website www.orkel.com for more information
about the machine and optional equipment, like Powerpack and bale handling tools.
If required, the Hi-X can be brought in to
transport mode in a few minutes and pulled
on the road by a tractor or a lorry. The allowed speed is up to 80 km/h.
STORAGE AND LOGISTICS
EASY TO HANDLE
EFFICIENT LOGISTICS IN UNIT PACKAGES
PRESERVING OUTSTANDING QUALITY
The Orkel Hi-X Compactor transforms
bulk materials into easy-to-handle round
bales, using nothing but polyethylene
plastic wrapping. This makes removing the
wrap both easy and problem free, as there
are no metal bands or netting to get stuck
in machinery components.
Baling is a clean and efficient way to
handle bulk material. It enables the
material to be compacted into unit
packages, thereby simplifying
logistics for a smoother workflow.
The Orkel bales conserve their content
very well, keeping a high stability of
the content. This is due to the tight
compression and wraping that virtually
removes most of the oxygen inside
the bales. Several reports show how
significant this effect is for selected
industries.
The Hi-X reduces the volume of almost
any bulk material up to three times,
which gives the ability to store more in
less space and to transport more in each
shipment.
Clean and simplified storage is made
easier by the possibility of stacking bales
vertically, as much as eight bales high,
for example in pyramid shaped stacks or
rows. The Orkel bale size is optimized for
loading of bales into lorries, containers
(44 units in 40ft container), ships or
similar.
The air- and waterproof plastic wrap
prevents spillage and damage caused by
moisture or leakage. Any odor or other
evironmental issues are also minimized,
making it possible to store bales in the
open.
Eastern Shore Forest Products in
Maryland, US have made over 80.000
bales of shavings for bedding.

Ecoedge in the Philippines produce
Refuse Derived Fule (RDF) by sorting and
shredding raw municipal waste. They
have had an Orkel MP2000 Compactor in
operation since 2014. Providing RDF for
the cement industry. Yearly production is
25.000 tons.
What began as a modest
production of small toys and
tricycles for local customers has
now become a global supplier of
high quality machinery.
NORWEGIAN CRAFTSMANSHIP
SINCE 1949
In 1949, at the age of 27, the Norwegian
welder Johan Gjønnes invested in a
welding machine. The intention was to
make a living out of repairing sledges
and bicycles for neighbours and
acquaintances. In a small smokehouse in
Fannrem, around 45 kilometers southwest
of Trondheim, he gradually developed the
business into production of toys, tricycles
and simple hand carriages for agriculture.
INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS BASED ON
EXPERIENCE
In the 60s and 70s, the production of
agriculture oriented equipment increased,
and as the wheels turned faster, more
employees got involved in the production.
Since most of the workers came from
farms or had their background in farming,
the development of new products were
based on broad practical experience and a
flair for the users needs.
FROM COUNTRYSIDE WORKSHOP TO
GLOBAL BRAND
Soon, Orkel became an established brand,
known for its reliable quality. In 1986 the
first Orkel baler was invented, and with
the round grass bales, Orkel really got
the worlds attention. Today Orkel Group
is an established, strong and pioneering
supplier of round balers, compactors and
transport equipment, represented in over
50 countries on all continents.
The company is one of the biggest
manufacturers in its segment in Norway
and has a unique position on the domestic
market. It has earned critical acclaim
and a reputation for high quality through
experience and innovative design.
The Orkel of today is quite a long way from
the small, modest countryside workshop
the founder Johan Gjønnes established
over 60 years ago. Quality, innovation,
commitment and passion for excellent
craftsmanship are still ideals we work
towards.
