Leading designer and manufacture of waste management machinery, Whitham Mills, has won an impressive order from Leadec, an industrial service supplier to manufacturing industries around the world.

The order sees the installation of Whitham Mills’ GB1575TR fully automatic twin ram baler along with a full refurbishment of their existing conveyor at a major UK-based automotive OEM, including several modifications such as an increased hopper size ensuring smoother automation.

The GB1575TR is capable of producing bales weighing in excess of 750kg at a rate of 13 tonnes per hour.
