The Challenge
Organizations across industries needed a scalable, attractive indoor waste handling solution that would make waste management more efficient, reduce pilferage, improve safety, and lower hauling costs. Existing open waste containers created safety risks and significant operational costs.
The Solution
Allen-Bradley Micro820 PLC, push buttons, contactors, and relays were integrated into Harmony Enterprises' hi-tech indoor waste compactor to enable automated intelligent compaction with 4:1 compaction ratio and 21-second cycle time.
Results
Waste handling costs decreased by up to 70%. Employee pilferage from open containers was reduced and property appearance was enhanced. The 4:1 compaction ratio significantly reduced hauling frequency.
Key Takeaways
- PLC-enabled waste compactors can reduce waste handling costs by up to 70% through improved compaction ratios and reduced hauling frequency
- Indoor compaction solutions simultaneously address cost, safety, and property appearance objectives for facility managers
- Micro PLC platforms enable cost-effective intelligent control for commercial waste management equipment
