SOLAR-POWERED · IoT-MONITORED · 5× CAPACITY
Aeonix Smart Compactor Bin
Compact. Sense. Alert. A solar-powered, IoT-monitored smart bin that holds 5× more waste than its volume suggests.
Overview
Urban waste management runs on two costs: how often the bin gets emptied, and how clean the public space looks while it's filling up. The Aeonix Smart Compactor Bin attacks both — automatically compacting waste to reduce volume by 65–70% and extending bin capacity up to 5×, while reporting fill-levels to a central dashboard so collection teams come only when actually needed.
Powered entirely by solar (60 W panel + 28 Ah SLA battery), the bin runs 24/7 with no grid dependency. Hands-free IR sensor activation, IP65-rated weatherproof enclosure, and durable powder-coated steel build make it deployable anywhere from a school courtyard to a railway platform.
Designed for modern cities, institutions, and corporates committed to cleaner, more efficient, and more sustainable waste handling.
Key Highlights
Solar-Powered Autonomy
60 W solar panel + 28 Ah SLA battery for 24/7 autonomous operation — no grid dependency.
Smart Waste Compaction
Motorized compactor reduces waste volume by 65–70%, extending bin capacity by up to 5×.
Hands-Free IR Operation
Infrared sensor opens the bin hatch on hand wave — fully hygienic, touchless disposal.
Real-Time Fill Monitoring
LiDAR-based fill detection reports bin level to the central dashboard in real-time.
LED Status Indicators
Visible status display for Full / Operational / Low Battery — at a glance for collection crews.
Durable & Weatherproof
IP65-rated enclosure with conformal-coated PCB for reliable outdoor operation.
36-Hour Power Backup
Operates up to 36 hours without sunlight on a full charge.
Optional Mobility
Heavy-duty wheels available for easy relocation when needed.
How It Works
1Approach
User approaches the bin and waves a hand over the IR sensor.
2Hatch Opens
The bin hatch opens automatically — fully hands-free.
3Waste Disposed
User drops waste; hatch closes after a short timeout.
4Auto-Compaction
When the load sensor detects sufficient waste, the motorized plate activates and compacts the content.
5Fill Reported
LiDAR measures the new fill level and reports to the central dashboard. Alerts fire automatically when bin is approaching full.

Why Choose the Smart Compactor Bin
5× More Capacity Without 5× More Space
Compaction means fewer pickups, lower fuel costs, and cleaner public spaces — without buying larger bins.
Solar Native, Zero Grid Cost
Deploy anywhere. No electrical work, no recurring power bill. 36-hour backup handles cloudy stretches.
Real Data, Not Guesswork
Stop dispatching trucks on a schedule. Dispatch only when LiDAR says the bin is actually full.
Field-Hardened Engineering
IP65, conformal-coated electronics, -40°C to 85°C operating range. Built to last in real outdoor conditions.
Customization & Variants
Custom wrap available — sponsor branding, municipal insignia, corporate logos. GSM / WiFi modules optional. Standalone (no telemetry) version available for low-cost deployments. Heavy-duty wheel-based variant available for sites requiring relocation.

FAQ
What kind of waste is the compactor designed for?
Dry municipal solid waste — paper, plastic, packaging, light organic. Not designed for liquids, glass, or hazardous waste.
How much power does it actually need?
Average daily consumption is well within what a 60 W solar panel can recover. 28 Ah battery provides 36-hour backup.
What happens if the battery dies?
Emergency manual override allows the hatch to be opened mechanically. Sensors and compactor resume on solar recharge.
Does the dashboard come included?
Yes — for units with the optional GSM/WiFi module, the Aeonix monitoring dashboard is included for the first year.
Where is it manufactured?
Designed and manufactured in India by Aeonix Research and Innovations LLP.
What's the warranty?
1 year standard, with extended AMC available.
