OverviewThe PRESTO pre-crusher compactor combines a static auger compactor with a hydraulically adjustable horizontal baler to pre-crush and bale plastic packaging such as PET bottles. The integrated system achieves high volumetric reduction, delivering measurable savings in storage and transport logistics while preparing material for downstream recycling processes.
OperationThe horizontal baler adjusts automatically based on the hydraulic unit motor current, ensuring consistent compaction. When a PRESTO container is fitted, increasing container weight generates counter pressure and the baler opens automatically to optimize feed and compaction cycles.
Application- Pre-crushing and baling of PET bottles and other plastic packaging materials
- Integration of PRESTO Static Auger Compactor with an adjustable horizontal baler for continuous processing
- Designed to reduce storage volume and transport costs by compacting material before baling
Characteristics / technical specifications- System: PRESTO Static Auger Compactor + hydraulically adjustable horizontal baler
- Automatic baler adjustment triggered by hydraulic unit motor current
- Automatic baler opening activated by increasing container weight (counter pressure from container contents)
- Primary feedstock: PET bottles and other rigid plastic packaging
- Suitable for integration into recycling and material handling lines
