Rempactor Auger type Waste Compactors

FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF REMPACTORS AUGER TYPE WASTE COMPACTION SYSTEMS
REDUCED LABOR COSTS
	REMPACTOR auger units run in a continuous forward direction, pre-crushing the material and allowing the unit to compact as much as five times faster than conventional hydraulic compactor units. Users do not have to wait for the hydraulic ram to make its compression stroke and return back to its charge position. With a REMPACTOR the user fills the charge chamber with material, closes the door and activates the unit, the material is crushed and transported into the receiver bin in one action making the unit immediately available to receive more material.
MINIMAL MAINTENANCE
	REMPACTORS are designed with very few moving parts. Our non-lubricated bushing and thrust washer are virtually maintenance free. This same bushing and thrust washer technology is used in such demanding applications as steel mills and aluminum can manufacturing plants where the longevity of parts in a hot, dirty environment is required. Parts failure can result in downtime costing thousands of dollars per hour!
RUGGED CONSTRUCTION
	Improving on a time-tested and proven design, REMPACTORS are built tough for increased reliability and fewer problems. REMPACTORS are built utilizing basic principles of engineering, where simple design elements are used to provide a superior trouble-free compactor.
HIGHER COMPACTION RATIOS
	REMPACTOR auger units pre-crush waste or recyclable materials prior to entering the receiver bin, resulting in the highest compaction rates possible. Higher compaction rates mean fewer bin pick-ups, saving the costs of additional “pick-ups,” that are required with conventional compactors.
ELIMINATES HYDRAULIC FLUIDS
	Hydraulic fluid on the ground may require costly special clean-up and disposal procedures to assure the fluid does not migrate into the ground. Leaky fittings or burst hoses can present safety and maintenance problems and additional costs to the facility owner. REMPACTORS use an electric helical gear-motor, turning the auger unit with a sprocket and roller chain drive package.
PROCESSING MATERIALS
	REMPACTOR auger units break down and crush bulky items such as empty cardboard boxes, wooden pallets, and other large items. The removal of "dead" air-space increases compaction ratios saving the user labor and pick-up costs, adding $$$$ to your bottom line!
DESIGNED WITH SAFETY IN MIND
	Conventional hydraulic compactors have been known to develop material plugs in the chutes, normally occuring when the chutes are further away from the compactor. To accommodate for the length of the ram, hydraulic compactors must be positioned further from the building, requiring a long chute. The ram pushes the materials through the charge chamber into the bin and returns back to its original charge position. As the bin begins to fill up, materials spring back into the charge chamber and into the chute. When this occurs someone must enter the chute and remove the plugged material. This is an unpleasant and dangerous task. Additionally, when the receiver bin is picked up more material has a tendency to spill out on the ground, requiring additional clean-up time. REMPACTORS have a smaller foot-print so they can be positioned closer to the building, allowing the use of a shorter chute. With the auger unit closer to the building, it is not normally necessary to push materials through a long chute. The REMPACTOR auger unit penetrates inside the bin through a smaller 31” or 37” round opening. The auger continuously runs in a forward direction placing a positive pressure on the material inside the bin, thereby preventing the “spring-back” into the auger chamber. The smaller opening in the receiver bin contains very little material to spill out onto the ground, minimizing clean-up time.
