Abstract: An apparatus allows various loose product, such as tire wire, cans, rubber, scrap metal, and the like, to be fed to provide a single, compacted disc output. The apparatus includes a shoot for feeding product where a first hydraulic cylinder can push the fed product into a main tube. A concave pushing surface can help shape the product into a cylinder. A second hydraulic ram can push product as it is gathered and intertwined within the main tube. The second hydraulic ram typically operates orthogonal to the first hydraulic cylinder. The resulting product is intertwined into a disc shape that is generally sufficiently meshed together to prevent the disc from falling apart, easing storage and transport of the product. This is especially useful for product that is difficult to mesh together, such as tire wire, for example.
