Foam Compactor Machine | Cold Press Machine for EPS Styrofoam

A foam compactor machine is a compression machine for foam that combines a shredder and a compressor into one. The foam packaging machine can reduce the volume of foam exponentially, increase the density, and facilitate the recycling of foam.

Introduction of the Foam Compactor Machine

La mousse EPS EPE est comprimée par la compacteuse de recyclage de polystyrène expansé, et la densité augmente pour devenir des blocs carrés. L'espace au sol est considérablement réduit, ce qui permet de diminuer efficacement les coûts de transport et de stockage.

EPS styrofoam recycling compactor is the necessary equipment for the la ligne de granulation de mousse plastique.

The cold briquette press machine is an environmental protection equipment that generates pressure according to the spiral rotation, squeezes the foam, and cold presses it for compression processing.

The styrofoam compactor can effectively solve the problem of EPS and EPE foam, which is difficult to recycle and inconvenient to transport. The Shuliy foam packaging machine’s compression ratio is high. The EPS styrofoam recycling compactor is cold pressed, no other chemical products are added, and no odor is produced.

Principle of the Styrofoam Compactor

A styrofoam compactor, also known as a foam densifier or EPS recycling machine, typically operates in two stages. First, loose foam is fed into the hopper and shredded into smaller particles. Then, through either cold or heat-assisted compression, the machine compacts the material into dense bricks or logs.

Cold press hydraulic baler use a screw mechanism to push foam through a compression chamber, while styrofoam densifier use heating elements to melt and extrude EPS into lumps. Both designs are intended to reduce foam waste volume while producing recyclable output for downstream use or resale.

How does a Foam Packing Machine Work?

Lors de l'utilisation, l'opérateur n'a qu'à placer la mousse dans la trémie, passer par le mécanisme de déchiquetage et de broyage pour broyer la mousse en compression spirale. Après le mécanisme en spirale, la mousse devient un bloc de mousse carré comprimé. Cela permet de réduire de manière exponentielle le volume de mousse, d'augmenter la densité et de faciliter le recyclage de la mousse. Compacteuse de polystyrène expansé Blocs de mousse comprimée

Feeding：

The process begins with feeding the loose EPS foam into the large hopper. The wide feed opening allows for direct loading of large foam boxes, sheets, or blocks without pre-cutting.

Breaking：

Inside the hopper or feed chamber, rotating blades or screw shafts break the foam into smaller pieces.

Compression：

The broken foam pieces are then pushed into the compression chamber. Using mechanical or hydraulic force, the material is compacted into high-density blocks.

Formating：

Once compressed, the foam is extruded from the output end in the form of rectangular blocks or logs. These blocks are uniform in size, easy to stack, store, or transport.

The compressed foam blocks can be collected manually or via conveyor and stored on pallets. These blocks can later be sold as recycled materials or sent to pelletizing lines for further granulation.

Notes on Styrofoam Compactor

1. When using a styrofoam compactor machine, pay attention to the buttons on the machine. Especially the “up”, “down”, and “emergency switch”, which are used in case of emergency.
2. Proper operation of the foam press also includes routine maintenance and timely cleaning. It is important to ensure that the upper and lower plates are clean and flat to avoid damage to the product during pressing.
3. Chaque fois que vous utilisez la presse à froid en mousse pour la pression, vous devez préparer à l'avance toutes sortes de matériaux auxiliaires pour éviter les suspensions causées par le manque de matériaux dans le traitement.

Export of Cold Press Foam Compressors to Malaysia

A Malaysian client installed our cold-press foam compactor, who is dealing with EPS foam waste from furniture and electronics packaging. With a wide feed inlet and efficient screw compression, the machine reduced foam volume by around 85%. The compacted blocks are now recycled locally, significantly reducing transport and storage costs.
