The screw compactor operates on an endless screw principle, propeled by a gear motor. The screw takes, tears uop, and maintains a constant pressure in a roatational movement on the conditioned waste in the compaction container. A patented driving mechanism ensures that waste thrown into the hopper is properly seized by the endless screw.

The screw compactor takes formed cardboard, up to pallet-sized boxes, into it's 57" x 57" loading hopper. It features a low noize level and continuous loading, ensuring a reduction of waste volumes and manipulations. Due to the reduction of waste bounce-back by the screw the container is easy to empty.
