Our screening compactors designed for treatment plants, stand out for their ability to keep the whole system efficient and fully functional. Our company also deals with the installation and maintenance of the equipment.
The material to be compressed is fed into the machine body via a hopper. After that, the hydraulic piston activates and compresses the material until its volume is significantly reduced and most of its liquid content is removed. The water trickles out through the compactor chamber and collects in the drip tray. This tray can be continuously washed by two blade spray nozzles to prevent build-up of tiny pieces of material passing through the drainage holes. The water collected inside the tray is then discharged through a nozzle. As the material is gradually compressed, it is pushed into the conveying pipe, whose diameter varies according to its length to prevent excessive friction against the pipe inner walls from hindering the flow of the material, which could lead to equipment blockage.
A screw compactor can be used in various drainage applications and in combination with different types of solid/liquid separators or conveyors. This equipment, normally used for compressing solids deriving from different processes, has the function of compacting screenings discharged directly from a screen or a screw conveyor. Once the screened material reaches the swan neck outlet, it is discharged into a storage container.
Screw washer compactors consist of a screw compactor for washing, compacting and conveying screened material and wet waste. The machine pushes the material through a pipeline or against a counter-pressure device, thus generating high forces capable of compacting and dewatering the material. A washing system fitted with nozzles is positioned along the conveyor route for draining screenings up the compactor zone. We are able to provide the most innovative solutions and our extensive knowledge in the field of screening equipment.
The X-COMP compactor combines two different operations: drainage and compaction of screenings. It can be positioned directly below the screen or fed from a hopper. A device fitted with nozzles positioned along the conveying route washes the screenings as they move towards the compactor zone. The excellent washing performance and compaction degree achieved by the machine makes it possible to minimize and slash disposal costs.
Our screw washer compactors consist of an inlet hopper connected to a tubular drainage trough. The hopper can be equipped with a supplementary washing system to enhance the removal of organic matter from screenings.
Its compacting strength is achieved by means of a “trunk” shaped discharge pipe.
Main advantages:
The X-S.COMP shaftless screw compactor combines three operations: drainage, conveyance and compaction. The screenings enter the hopper and are moved to the compactor and dewatering zone by means of the shaftless screw conveyor, and then finally unloaded into a container. The water drained in the compactor zone is conveyed to the machine inlet where it can be discharged or reused for further treatments.
The machine consists of three sections:
The draining section, usually placed before the hopper where the majority of the water is discharged.
The conveying section, where the material is moved to the compacting/ dewatering section.
The compacting/ dewatering section where both material volume and weight reduction takes place (up to 50%).
The screw is connected directly to the drive system.
The machine, whose working range is 5 °C to 35 °C, can operate in manual and / or automatic mode according to the electrical panel settings and the relative operating requirements.
