Meiko AZP80 User Manual

AZP 80

Meiko's AZP 80 is an advanced, high-capacity waste pulper that reduces food and mixed waste volume by up to 85%.

Normal kitchen waste, with its high water content, is a recognized carrier for disease and odors. The AZP 80 solves these problems by reducing food waste to a dry, relatively odorless pulp, using a vertical, side-mounted tungsten carbide grinding mechanism and a vertical dewatering press. A flushing mechanism keeps the unit operating at maximum efficiency during peak loads.

Reducing waste volume also reduces labor costs,as well as costs associated with waste transportation, disposal and pest control.

As with all products synonymous with the name “Meiko,” engineering excellence, manufacturing quality and performance come to the forefront in the AZP 80.
