Stationary Compactor - Single Ram

The single ram stationary compactor is the common choice for dry waste: cardboard, paper, plastics, and general packaging. One hydraulic cylinder, rated up to 45,000 lbs of force on a 50 to 70 second cycle, pushes waste into a receiving container that hauls off when full. The compactor head and container are separate, so the hauler swaps the box and compaction picks back up with little downtime. It costs less to buy and maintain than a dual-ram unit and suits facilities with moderate to high volume. Offices, retail stores, department stores, and warehouses with steady dry waste are typical buyers. Controls run in auto or manual mode, and an optional bin tipper handles cart-fed loading. Charge boxes come in 2 and 3 cubic yards.
