This metering bunker and storage system operates at the beginning of a recycling system. Incoming waste and recyclable materials are loaded into the bunker by the loader operator. The bunker evenly feeds the material toward the automatic bag opener or conveyor using a moving floor and rotating drum. Infeed rates are easily adjusted using the included control cabinet with PLC. Waste material can be fed through the bunker at rates up to 120 cubic yards per hour.
