Not all compaction is the same. Refuse compactors from BOMAG are synonymous with the best possible use of landfill volume, and at the same time offer ideal and homogeneous compaction. This ensures the optimum stability of a landfill site. BOMAG refuse compactors are specially designed for use on landfill sites of all sizes, regardless of whether the refuse is industrial, household, bulky or construction waste. Refuse compactors are equipped with a dozer blade (RB) or a loading bucket (RS).

Technologies

The basis for landfill site profitability is optimum utilisation of capacity which means the best possible compaction of all waste materials. BOMAG refuse compactors achieve this requirement because they have been specifically designed to work under the extreme conditions found on landfill sites.

BOMAG’s compaction concept with scrapers, polygon rings and toothed wheels ensures continuously clean working. Only clean tools can guarantee consistent compaction and traction. The articulating and oscillating center joint ensures the optimum load distribution and traction on all four wheels. Thanks to the wheel offset, the entire surface is covered. Gaps left by the wheels are closed completely on the second pass.

Cooling on demand means adapting the airflow to required cooling performance. This results fuel savings up to 6%. The reversing function is reducing the cleaning efforts and thereby maximizing the availability.

The smart ECOMODE speed control saves up to 30% fuel and reduces noise emissions. ECOSTOP automatically shuts down the engine after a defined idling time. This further reduces consumption and wear.
