PE Foam Scrape " Auger Compactor" (AC)

Theory of Operation:

Foam sheet, planks and cut-outs can be compressed into rigid, high bulk-density logs that can be easily handled or stacked.  Converting foam to up to 30 lbs./ft3 bulk weight, the AC compactor provides a clean and efficient method to handle scrap and significantly reduce disposal or transportation costs.  Employing a patent pending compacting technology, the AC compresses foam scrap into a square log.  The outer surface of the log is heated, creating a thin, rigid outer shell that maintains the brick shape.  logs are continuously pushed out and cut to a preset length, adjustable from 8” to 48”, making it possible to palletize and ship the scrap affordably.  Unlike baling systems, no strapping is required, dust and debris are reduced, and the logs can be fed directly into most grinders or shredders for recycling.

Film and Trim Scrape "Kinetic Piston" Compactor (KP)

Convert your flexible poly scrap into a manageable product with the KP series scrap compactor.

 

Trims and cut-outs can be compressed into rigid, high bulk-density bricks that can be easily handled or stacked.  Bricks can be disposed, burned for energy, or reprocessed.  The KP provides an efficient method to handle scrap and waste issues without causing noise, dust or adding heat history to the material. Flexible plastic scrap is delivered to the KP by various methods, and is drawn by vacuum into the compacting chamber, which compresses the scrap into brick form.  The outer surface of the brick is heated, creating a thin, rigid outer shell that maintains the brick shape.  Bricks are continuously pushed out and cut to a preset length.

Benefits:

  • Simple to install and start up.

  • Safe, quiet, clean and efficient operation.

  • Minimal floor space required.

  • Produces bricks/logs that are easy to handle and stack.  No baling wire required.

  • Works with clean or dirty materials.

  • Works with any poly-coated paper or foil products.
