The Technology

Revolutionizing snow removal with compression technology

For decades, traditional snow blowers have ruled the industry.
But now, innovation takes the lead. At Snocom, we developed a patented snow compression technology that fundamentally changes the way snow is removed and transported.
Instead of just moving snow aside or blowing it into the air, our Snowcuber compresses the snow, reducing its volume by up to 50% before it’s loaded into a truck. This means fewer truck movements, lower operational costs, and a significant reduction in CO₂ emissions.

How our snow compressor works

1. Gathering the Snow
The Snowcuber’s high-efficiency auger captures snow quickly and transports it into the system.

2. Lifting and Feeding
An integrated impeller lifts the snow and directs it into the patented compression unit.

3. Volume Reduction
Inside the compressor, the snow is compacted, squeezing out air and moisture to shrink the volume by up to 50%.

4. Controlled Truck Loading
The compressed snow is loaded precisely into the truck bed using a hydraulically rotatable and extendable chute — maximizing load efficiency and minimizing spillage.

5. Reverse Function for Blockages
Should blockages occur, the Snowcuber allows in-cab reverse operation, clearing jams without the need for manual intervention.

Result: Maximum payload per truck, fewer trips, less downtime, and safer operations in winter conditions.

Engineered for extreme conditions

The Snowcuber is designed and built to perform under the harshest winter conditions, including:
Wet, heavy snow
Powdery dry snow
Icy, compacted snow

Key specifications:
– Compression capacity: up to 500 tons/hour (MK6 model)
– Designed for operation at -20°C to +5°C
– ISOBUS-compliant control systems
– Heavy-duty materials for long service life

Built with professional
users in mind

From airports to ski resorts to urban winter services, Snowcuber machines are developed together with field operators:
Simple control panel: intuitive in-cab operation
Minimal maintenance: hydraulic components and modular design
Fast access to service and spare parts throughout Europe

Everything is engineered to ensure you spend less time worrying about equipment and more time keeping roads, runways, and slopes safe.
