No progressive, international company can afford to rest on its laurels, says Vecoplan, based in Bad Marienberg, Germany. That’s why its engineers have developed a new biomass chipper which is described as “mini but mighty.”
“The biomass chipper is extremely compact in design and therefore only takes up a minimum amount of space in the plant,” explains Irene Scheidweiler, founder of Vecoplan.
The biomass chipper still has in various applications a comparable throughput capacity as the traditional drum chippers. The biomass is processed by four rollers. The three lower rollers (base) are toothed and strengthened; the upper roller (oscillating), on the other hand, has aggressive spikes.
The biomass chipper has a dual-action cylinder on each side. It features a fast lifting and gentle lowering function. The clamping plate rotor has a large chip pocket volume and divided knife. Changing the knives is quick and maintenance-friendly.
The drum chippers and biomass chippers from Vecoplan have the following features in common: a swivel-mounted screening basket facilitates changing the basket, and the shredding tools are changed at the front of the machine which guarantees ergonomically friendly maintenance.
“The biomass chipper is another important product in our company’s range,” emphasizes Scheidweiler. “We are now able to offer even more tailored solutions to our customers.”
