This usually takes the form of hydraulically powered sliding plates which sweep out the collection hopper and compress the material into what has already been loaded.ĭifferent compactors are used in scrap metal processing, the most familiar being the car crusher. WCVs themselves incorporate a compacting mechanism which is used to increase the payload of the vehicle and reduce the number of times it has to empty. In landfill sites for example, a large tractor (typically a converted front end loader with some variant of a bulldozer blade attached) with spiked steel wheels called a landfill compactor is used to drive over waste deposited by waste collection vehicles (WCVs). Normally powered by hydraulics, compactors take many shapes and sizes. A baler-wrapper compactor is often used for making compact and wrapped bales in order to improve logistics. A trash compactor is often used by business and public places like hospitals (And in the United States also by homes) to reduce the volume of trash they produce.
A compactor is a machine or mechanism used to reduce the size of material such as waste material or bio mass through compaction.
