More-Control - Applications -Compactor Control System

When a leading waste compactor company looked to develop a new range of compactors More Control was chosen to work with them to develop the control system.

ET2 Ltd, who developed a new screw compactor, required a total control solution including system design, software development, panel build, after sales support. More Control provided the solution. The control involved the control and protection of a large high torque motor which turned the screw, compacting the waste.

This motor required many sequences of operation to ensure the correct compaction of many waste types and the interface to a range of auxiliary equipment as the product developed. With the addition of automatic, bin tip, automatic skip loaders and other equipment over the last 8 years.

In recent years the compactors have been used in food waste recycling and now more recently in direct feeds to combined heat and power plants, which again brought new challenges.

"More Control has worked in partnership for many years now with ET2, they have become our own electrical engineering, machine development and 2nd line service and support department. With their help we have built this company and our range of waste compactors" MD ET2.
