Скачать или смотреть Paddle Packing Green Waste - SidePAK

In this video you have got an Iveco Acco with a SidePAK body and on show is the trucks Paddle Packer moving side to side, pushing and compacting all types of garden waste (grass, leaves, branches etc...) into the body. I managed to capture this footage on Saturday two weeks ago, with Mitch behind the wheel of his Hornsby Greens SL642 doing some catch up work in Northmead which is now part of the Parramatta Council area (formerly part of The Hills Shire but not anymore due to recent council mergers). Always wanted to get some "real" hopper footage and with the SidePAK slowly becoming extinct, it was a must for me to get one of these Hornsby SidePAK's picking up greens documented up here on YouTube.

I was really happy with how this turned out cause you get a lot of variety with the different types of green waste being emptied into the hopper, you have got your bins loaded with grass clippings than others filled with your lighter products like branches, trimmings and weeds. Its funny cause as you get towards the last 5-8mins of the video most of the material being pushed by the paddle is leaves but at the start of the video its mostly grass and branches. Shows how much the green waste stream can vary/differ from street to suburb and from time of year to recent weather conditions. As you will notice most of the green bins were fully loaded and i think theres was only 2-3 bins with hardly anything in them. Contamination level was pretty low too with only a couple of non-compliant items seen, a couple of bins had the bagged green waste....which is not the worst of things ey.

These SidePAK's are pretty good machines for the green waste or any stream with a relatively fast cycle time and lots of force/pressure is seen and heard when the paddle is pushing the greens into the small body openings on each side. The big teeth/spikes on the paddle work very well for the green waste as you will see in the video and the shaking capabilities of the SidePAK lifter is truly awesome ! Big thanks has to go to Mitch for his help mounting the camera and I hope all of you enjoy this special hopper action of the famous Aussie SidePAK doing its thing.
