1. StopWatch Grind and Control System |
Monitors and controls all machine functions. PLC can be on site or remotely downloaded. |
Permits monitoring of vital machine functions to maximize machine and operator performance. |
| 2. StopWatch Tramp Metal Stop System |
Stops and reverses infeed instantly when rotor makes contact with steel. |
In most cases NO DAMAGE when tramp metal is accidentally fed into the machine. Save time and a lot of money. |
| 3. Original grind and color system. |
Color any wood any color as you grind. |
Dramatically increase the value and demand for your landscape mulch. You can process pallets, slabs, edgings, bark, chips, or C&D into beautiful colored mulch. |
| 4. "Perfect In One Pass" baffled screens |
Partical size control. |
Rotochopper is renowned as the industry leader in near perfect particle size capturing highest value for your product. |
| 5. Hydraulically positioned roll-out screen cradle. |
Hydraulic cylinders position the screen cradle to grind and to roll back and be removed. |
Permits operator to change screens in as little as 15 minutes with no tools. Easy access to the grinding rotor. Absolutely THE BEST screen changing system in the industry! |
| 6. Shear pin protected screen. (Pre-dates-StopWatch Redundant protection system.) |
Pins shear when large non grindable items are driven against the screen by the rotor. |
Reduce change of major damage if large rock or steel is accidentally fed into the machine. When pins shear the screen drops away and large items can be discharged without damage. |
| 7. Auto Belt DirectDrive Power Transfer |
Transmit power (via Power-Band Belts) from engine to the grinding rotor. No torque converts, no clutch. |
Flip a switch and watch a hydraulic cylinder slowly tighten the belt and start the grinding rotor. Totally eliminates the clutch which is the most failure prone component on all grinders. |
| 8. Diesel Powered models up to 43,000 lbs. |
Mobility and high performance. |
Rotochopper MC 256 / 266's are an entirely road legal versatile mulch manufacturing factory on wheels. Operate anywhere you can drive. |
| 9. Electric Powered Models |
Solid state electronics, (VFD) variable speed drives provide constant controlled feed. |
Constant dependable performance with no plugging or jamming. Extremely reliable machines with some in service with over 30,000 hours and going strong. |
| 10. PocketLoc replaceable fixed cutters on the grinding rotor. |
Efficient grinding of material. Eliminate tooth loss. |
No bushings or pins to wear or replace. One bolt per tooth. Patented design virtually eliminates tooth loss. |
| 11. Segmented steel plate variable speed horizontal feed conveyor. |
Provides constant even feedl to the power feeder. Six cubic yard hopper. |
Solid steel belt and horizontal feed means no kick back and full utilization of horsepower. Can be fed by hand or with less costly skid loaders or fork lifts. Greatly enhances operator safety. |
| 12. Giant 32" diameter 1,800 lb power feeder. |
Controls feed to the grinding rotor. |
Pre-crushes bulky material and force feeds the grinding rotor. Permits constant feed of uneven irregular material. Prevents kickback. |
| 13. 48" wide, 24' long folding conveyor. |
Stacking or loading of material. |
24' conveyor will load semi vans or build huge piles. Folds for road legal transport in 10 seconds. |
| 14. 12" X 40" magnets |
Remove ferrous metals from processed material. |
The largest most powerful magnet available in a mobile grinder has proven to remove over 98% of ferrous metal. |
| 15. Spray Bar Dust Control |
Spray water on the material being ground. |
Located above the rotor this feature provides inexpensive dust control. A little water goes a long way in controlling dust. |
| 16. CAT Power & Electronic Load Sensing |
Provides power to the system and controls feed rate. |
Rotochopper uses less power because it wastes none. Electronic load sensing advances material only as fast as the engine can process it. No plugging or overloading the engine. |
| 17. 48" wide under rotor discharge conveyor. |
Removes material from the grinding chamber. |
Horizontal 4 ft wide conveyor provides unlimited capacity to remove ground material. No bridging or plugging. |
|
18. All Metric Machine |
Create machine for export. |
Built with all metric components and fasteners the Rotochopper all metric grinder can be used and serviced and replacement parts can be purchased anywhere in the world. |
