HV Plastcompactor Densifier Herbold Meckesheim has updated its HV Plastcompactor Densifier with a new optional force-feed mechanism. The compactors, which are available in three sizes, can process as much as 3,000 pounds per hour. They are equipped with rotating and fixed-compaction discs with screw-mounted, replaceable kneading rails; the discs provide rapid heating of pre-granulated material.
What's new? An improved auger for the force-feed mechanism of the compactors, which Herbold Meckesheim touted at the K show.
Benefits Better material feeding, with a more consistent flow. The new force-feed mechanism provides improved performance, especially with low-bulk-density materials.
