Pre-Crusher Compactor

Pre-crushers are the ideal solution for crushing drums, pallets, and furniture, and other large items. They are also useful for destroying unsellable merchandise and waste items with sensitive data (e.g., laptop computers) to prevent scavenging. Pre-crushing significantly reduces trash volume and increases payload size, which can save you money on waste hauling costs.

If you routinely crush bulky items like drums and pallets, a pre-crusher can help you manage your waste volume more efficiently. Features of the CRAM-A-LOT pre-crusher compactor include:

• Advanced heavy-duty construction: The structural steel chassis was designed using cutting-edge engineering software and is built to withstand heavy use.
• Tongue-and-groove floor: Stops waste materials from migrating between the ram and the compactor floor, a common cause of problems and breakdowns.
• Programmable logic controller: The simplified electrical circuit design features a programmable logic controller that uses no relays.
• Power source integrated hydraulic manifold: The machine’s manifold system includes a hydraulic power unit that is significantly smaller and lighter than normal, and also ensures a cleaner and more reliable hydraulic system.

Applications and Benefits of Using a Pre-Crusher

Pre-crushers get rugged materials ready for your heavy-duty trash compactor. They are perfect for dealing with hard-to-destroy items like steel drums, wood crates and pallets, and similar waste types. Common manufacturing and industrial applications for pre-crushers include:

• Automotive manufacturers
• Appliance manufacturers
• Warehouses and distribution centers
• Boat manufacturers
• Construction sites
• Transfer stations

Benefits of using a pre-crusher include:

• Reduced volume: Designed to crush rugged materials, a pre-crusher compactor can slash your hauling expenses by up to 50 percent.
• Higher payload: Compacted materials free up space at your facility and save space on trucks, which can also save you on hauling costs.
• Improved space utilization: By compressing materials into denser forms, pre-crushers help maximize storage space, both at the facility and during transport, ensuring more efficient use of available cubic yards.
• Optimized load weights: These machines enable businesses to maximize truckload efficiency by achieving higher load weights.
• Versatility in material handling: Pre-crushers are capable of compacting diverse material types, from white goods like water heaters to raw materials such as scrap wood and metals, making them useful accessories for multiple industries.
• Enhanced safety and security: Using this type of compactor ensures sensitive materials are thoroughly destroyed.
• Environmental sustainability: Pre-crushers prepare materials for recycling more efficiently, minimizing landfill contributions and supporting eco-friendly waste stream
