How do Garden Composters Work?
SUN-MAR’s Autoflow technology on 200 and 400 models combines the best features of both pile and drum type composters.
The patented double drum ensures that as the drum rotates, compost moves along the main outer drum and back through the inner drum, before dropping from the output port.
How Does this Work?
200 and 400 Units
The 200 and 400 units consist of an outer main drum, with an inner drum inside it, supported at both ends by the outer drum. The whole drum assembly is supported by a cradle. At the far end of the inner drum is a “scoop” designed so that as the drum rotates, material is picked up by the inner drum and pushed along the inner drum to the output port. When the outport port door is unscrewed composted material falls out into a container.

The output port is the output end of the inner drum which is surrounded by the cradle bearing into which it fits snugly. At the other end a 4" bearing on the outer drum fits into the a hole in the cradle, and is supported by a drum cap which prevents the drum from working its way out of the cradle.
