History• In 1986, Syntech

started building refuse container body to be assembled to imported compactor head.

• In 1987, Syntech became the first company in Singapore to produce its own refuse compactor.

• In 1996, Syntech became the first company in Singapore to produce refuse compactors on a series production basis.

SMC Range of Compactors

• In December 1995 Syntech was awarded a contract by ENV to produce 300 units of compactors over a 16-month period.

• Prototype unit built using standard jigs was completed in April 1996.

• Full production started thereafter and delivery began in May 1996.

• This redesign gave rise to our new range of compactors - the SMC range.

First SMC-12 Prototype Unit

• Picture on the right shows the first prototype unit delivered to Bedok Bin Centre for testing.

• Test of this unit shows that it was capable of compacting up to 8.6 tonne of refuse.

By end April 1996 we started full production

and were able to produce one unit a day.

Page 7: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

Beginning in May 1996 we started our delivery to SEMAC, at a rate of

six units a week.

Page 8: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

Words got around then and we startedto receive enquiries from private

refuse contractors to quote.

Page 9: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

Beginning in end 1996 we started selling to

these refuse contractors

In the two years that followed, we sold forty more units.

Customised Design

Besides producing standard SMC range of refuse compactors, Syntech also customised its compactors to suit customers’ requirements.

• Tetra Pak - automatic operation

• SATS Catering - computer interface

• Kaihung - infra red sensor

SMC Models There are many options available on our SMC

range of compactors. They are:

• Capacities from 8 to 22 cubic metres

• Hydraulic / Manual Tailgates

• Front/Rear Lifting

• Compactor & compactor/container

• Hook Lift/Cable Lifting

• Preset Automatic Operations

SMC Features

There are many features in our SMC range of refuse compactors that are not common in most of the refuse compactors currently in operation here.

They are:

SMC Features

Operating Cycles

• While most compactors are fixed with a certain number of cycles per operation, our compactor can vary this cycle from 1 -11, depending on the choice of the operator.

• Currently we are the only manufacturer here with this feature.

Page 14: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Features

Programme Logic Controller (PLC)

• Our SMC compactor is installed with a PLC to control and monitor the electrical system in the compactor as opposed to the use of analogue system by others.

• Repair to electrical fault takes minutes with this system, while others take hours, sometime days, to rectify the same problem.

Page 15: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Features

20 Amp Power Supply

• Our hydraulic and electrical system is designed to operate at 20 A current supply, in accordance to HDB requirements.

• Most system in the market are operating at 32 A, which is not acceptable to HDB bin centre operation.

Page 16: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Features

Full Welds (Auto-weld System)

• All welding done on the compactor is by full weld, giving no chance for the ingress of water into the welding seam that results in formation of rust.

• In addition, all welds on the main body is done by auto-weld machine. This gives a very good quality finish to the compactor.

Page 17: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Features

Tailgate Trough

• A tailgate trough is incorporated at the bottom of the rear door.

• With the tailgate trough, even if the door seal is damaged and leaks, water would be collected at the trough and not drip onto the roads while the unit is in transportation.

Page 18: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

• Our experience with the first 300 units of our compactors delivered to SEMAC revealed several problems with our basic design after one year of operation.

• In true fashion, we redeveloped and improved our SMC design and the latest SMC range incorporate this improvements.

• Our SMC range of compactors is thus a proven product for Singapore operation.

Page 19: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

• A total of Eleven (11) improvements were made to the SMC compactors since 1997 after the delivery of the 300 units to SEMAC.

• The improvements made are:

Page 20: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Main Hydraulic Cylinders

• Previously we used hard chromed mild steel rod for the main hydraulic cylinders, a common practice in the trade. However prolong usage by SEMAC had shown that this is subject to corrosion.

• Now we are supplying hard chromed stainless steel rod, the first in Singapore to use it for refuse compactors.

Page 21: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Sweeper Plate

• To minimise the amount of refuse getting behind the ram head, we had incorporated an adjustable sweeper plate on the ram head. This will prevent papers, leaves and small thin objects from slipping to the rear of the ram head.

• In so doing, we also strengthened the structural strength of the ram head.

Page 22: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Follow Plate

• Similar to the sweeper plate, we noticed that small thin objects are getting to the rear of the ram head.

• To overcome this problem, we install an adjustable rubber seal on the follow plate.

SMC Improvements

Drainage Valve

We monitored the drainage system supplied by us to SEMAC as well as by others in operation and came to the conclusion that the best system would be a valve system that opens automatically when the compactor is put in operation.

SMC Improvements

Push Button Control

• The buttons used on our push button control system is designed for easy replacement. However this feature has a flaw. The buttons are easily stolen.

• Our new system has a permanent buttons design that is durable.

Page 25: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Bottom Guide

• About a year after the first 300 units were put in operation, we realised that the bottom guide for the ram head needs strengthening.

• Subsequent units were improved and strengthened and no further problems were encountered.

Page 26: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Door Seal Design

• Occasionally leaks were detected from the door seal from some of our compactors.

• To solve this problem, we change the door seal from three separate pieces to one molded piece.

Page 27: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Compactor Body Cross Beam

• We noticed that misused of the compactor frequently damage the body cross beam, not just on ours, but most of the compactors in use by SEMAC.

• We now provide all new compactors with additional cross beam reinforcement to minimise such damages.

Page 28: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Rollers

• We were of the opinion that since the compactor is subject to rough handling, no greasing is needed on the rollers. This proved to be untrue.

• All new units are now installed with grease nipples to ensure smooth rolling function of the rollers.

Page 29: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Printed Circuit Board (PCB)

• Several months after our first batch of compactors were put to use, we notice some failure on the microchip used on our PCB board. Though such incidents were low, we decided to replace new units with the heavy duty type.

• No report of failure of the heavy duty microchip was received since.

Page 30: Syntech SMC Compactors. Syntech Refuse Compactor Model SMC-12 (HDB)

SMC Improvements

Thermostat

There had been some cases of meltdown of the hydraulic system due to overheating. This was due to the failure of the faulty PCB microchip. Though this problem had already been solved by the use of heavy duty type, we installed all new units with a thermostat so that there would be an automatic cut-off once a critical temperature had been reached.
