Quality and Durability
The Mac SCS self-contained compactor represents over 25 years of continuous development and improvement. This has resulted in a state of the art machine that is built to last like no other.
The 3/16” thick (7GA) container body and 1/4” thick floor plate provide extra insurance against rustthrough and significantly increase the life of the machine.
The compactor body is 50% stronger than any other on the market. With solid 3/8” plate side walls that are further reinforced with structural tube top rails, 1” x 3” solid horizontal bar and 3” structural channel verticals. The 8” x 6” x 3/4” breaker bar is supported by 4” x 3” x 1/4” structural steel tubing,
gusseted with 1/2” thick plate. This has totally eliminated side wall deformation even under extreme conditions.
The discharge door has received the same attention to strength and design. The Mac SCS door seal incorporates a unique counter bow design that increases the seal compression between the door attachment points, which is a common source of leakage in other designs.
The door frame is constructed from 6” x 3” x 1/4” structural steel tube and the bottom has extra reinforcing with full width 1/2” steel plate and full width 1/4” plate that also acts as a debris shedder. The seal itself is a 360 degree solid neoprene “T” shape that will last for years and may be easily replaced with common hand tools when the time comes.
The heart of the Mac SCS compactor is the hydraulic power unit. Only top of the line, off the shelf components are utilized to deliver outstanding reliability and prevent “vendor lock in” for our customers.
