MyDealer:Whole Tree Chipper
- Weight: 17236.5 kg
- Fuel Type: Diesel
- Power: 600 hp (448 kW)
Features
Featuring a chip drum with an adjustable bite size that produces chips for pellets and biofuel chips, faster and easier knife setup and a PT Tech clutch, the WC2500XL whole tree chipper offers a powerful and effective solution for producing wood chips in a compact footprint. Material can be handled efficiently with variable-speed dual-infeed conveyor chains and SmartCrush technology.
Key Features
- The WC2500XL has a compact design to aid in maneuvering in the woods, on tight job sites and down narrow roads, but packs 600 hp (448 kW) of power to meet your production demands.
- With SmartCrush technology that automatically increases down pressure when difficult material enters the cutting drum and variable-speed dual-infeed conveyor chains, operators can concentrate on loading the machine — not pushing the material through.
- High-wear material flow areas of the machine — such as the drum, discharge chute, cutter housing and infeed conveyor floor — are designed with replaceable bolt-in wear parts to extend machine life.
- Microchip drum produces a variety of sizes between 1/8 inches (3 mm) to 5/8 inches (16 mm) chips.
- Knife setup is fast and easy. The knife position is set with two small bolts — no babbiting needed. Bite-size is adjustable in 1/8 inch (.3 cm) increments from 1/8 inch (3 mm) up to 5/8 inch (16 mm) via shims. Makes knife change out on the job site easy and helps reduce the cost of operation.
- Self-adjusting, push-button, hydraulic dry clutch provides consistent engagement — helping to prolong clutch life, lower maintenance costs and reduce operator error.
- Vermeer remote control system, designed specifically for this machine, allows operators to engage/disengage the clutch and control the trip meter, EcoIdleTM engine control system and work lights from the remote.
