Bergmann MPB 918 Wet Waste Compactor

Additional Info

A system designed by Bergmann over 40 years ago results in cleanliness without external refuse deposits. The MPB can be fed continuously, because the swing piston crosses below the waste that is fed during backstroke. This drops in front of the press plate and is pressed into the container on the pre-stroke.

The MPB piston is mounted oscillating and is moved by two robust hydraulic cylinders. The outline of the piston is shovel-shaped. During the backward stroke the piston goes under the material and throws it in front of the piston. During the forward stroke the material is first pushed into the container and then compacted. As a result of the construction, the material cannot reach under the piston and therefore cleaning work in front of and under the piston blade are not required. As the hydraulic cylinders are mounted in the upper part of the compaction unit, they do not come into contact with the waste and are not attacked by acids or other dangerous substances.

A new feature of the MPB 918 is that it is now possible to lubricate internal bearing from the outside. Also, the hydraulic unit can be pulled out to the side, which means that maintenance and repair work can be carried out easily from the outside. The main switch and the motor protection switch can also be operated from the outside.

The focus of the Bergmann 918 containers is on high strength with the lowest weight. The construction is based on a double tapered container. The tapers are conically in the the pressing direction and to the container roof, which facilitates the emptying of the contents. Additionally, all closures and fittings are galvanized to protect them from the weather. The MPB 918 is equipped as standard with a pendulum flap mounted at the top. The door is opened and closed using a toggle and ratchet including a standard ratchet extension (approx 1700mm). The galvanized lock ratchet is attached on the right in the pressing direction.

The mounting bracket on the front is foldable as standard and adjustable for two heights: 1450mm / 1570mm. The MPB 918 is equipped as standard with 4 plastic rollers (w. 160mm). NB. The bracket on the discharge door is only used for shunting and NOT for transport on the transport vehicle and is attached at a height of approx 1450mm to 1570mm.

The Mobile-Pack-Bins (MPB) are characterised by high compaction results and long service lives. Thus, the machines are not only very economic, but they also make a valuable contribution to the reduction of CO2 levels.

Conventional compaction systems for self press containers require regular cleaning. If this work is not carried out regularly (typically weekly) or is neglected, this can cause malfunctions. With the Bergmann compactors, cleaning work behind or under the piston is not necessary saving labour costs.

Other additional accessories include: plastic rolls in front (300mm), plastic rolls at rear (300mm), rolls in front (height 180mm) roll away protection, special outside distance of rollers at rear, special outside rollers in front, steel rollers instead of plastic rollers, 80mm rollers on the front, integrated in rails instead of standard rollers / hook on the rear, cable lift system in front and at rear, cover including automatic opener for MPB cover with integrated lift tipping device, lid opener for roller bins with swinging lid with cover on MPB, guide rails and special RAL paint.
