The Vestil HDC-905-HC High Cycle Drum Crusher / Drum Compactor features a versatile design that can crush and compact 55 gallon drums, giving the user two pieces of equipment in one. When used as a barrel crusher, this unit crushes 55 gallon steel drums to approximately 6" high and then resets automatically to crush another drum all in approximately 25 seconds. Can also crush 55 gallon fiber and plastic drum but crushed size will vary due to the lack of rigidity of these materials. An integral aluminum drip pan catches any liquid remaining in drum while crushing. The drum compactor feature can compact the contents inside of various drum sizes up to 55 gallons. The drum crushing platen is easily removed for compacting. Safety features include a pressure relief valve to prevent overload and a door interlock system which only allows the motor to function if the door is closed. The HDC-905-HC high cycle drum crusher is designed to run continuously without the need for a cooling off period. 460V/3 Phase, 230V/3 Phase, & 208V/3 Phase motors available - see chart below.
