Abstract
A machine is provided that simultaneously perforates and crushes an incoming flow of waste containers to output perforated compressed containers. The machine includes a pair of counter rotating drums supported within a frame and separated by a compression gap into which the containers are fed. A guard mechanism on the cover of the frame produces a downward angle of entry that is substantially parallel to the rotating axis of the drums. The outer surface of each drum includes a pattern of grooved rings that form a plurality of channels. Positioned within alternate channels are a plurality of perforating tools arranged in an opposing helical pattern to create a staggered path that engages and traps the containers to produce a positive feeding flow of the containers into and through the gap where the containers are punctured and crushed.
