Bergmann Rotary Bag And Bin Compactors

Up to 9:1 compaction rates are achievable from Bergmann Rotary Bag Compactors. They are the highest compaction soltuions for general waste, non-recyclable cardboard, textiles, plastic, office and plasterboard waste.

Reduces typical 1100 litre wheelie bin collections by up to 80%.

There is no other machine that occupies such a small footprint with this sort of compaction. Occupying space of less than 1.5m2 with a total height of 2.8m, it can usually be positioned where the waste is generated, rather than taking waste outside to a general compactor.

Operation

A new bag is placed in the machine with a pallet on the floor and the doors closed; waste is loaded through the chute door (or via a chute from above for example); the rotary drum breaks up and compacts the waste into the bag; the bag is protected by a metal bag shield; the full bag, up to 500kg or more (but typically about 350kg for general waste); the full bag is pulled out on a pallet truck and the bag sealed.

Models:

With over 3000 machines in place in the UK alone, the high compaction rates are the answer to escalating disposal costs and Landfill Tax.

Chute-fed With Photo-eye For Automatic Filling

Bergmann bag and bin compactors can work with chute-fed systems in waste rooms of apartments and offices. The photo-eye automatically detencts the fall of the waste and automatically starts the compaction cycle. The APS600 and APS800 use 600 litre and 800 litre bins respectively.
