Electric and diesel horizontal grinders are a critical part of any successful waste reduction or recycling operation—downsizing material for easy transport, disposal, or recycling. However, some industries, including storm debris cleanup and C&D waste disposal, require extremely robust grinding solutions to handle the highly abrasive feedstocks they process.
That’s where high-horsepower grinders come in. Grinders and recycling equipment with engines rated between 800 and 1200 horsepower, like Rotochopper’s B-Series grinders, are considered the upper level of power and are ideally suited to serve industries that process high volumes of extremely abrasive feedstocks, like asphalt shingles, contaminated debris, and even whole trees.
As a factory-direct manufacturer, Rotochopper is proud to offer a range of high-horsepower grinders to tackle even the most abrasive feedstocks in the toughest industries—minimizing downtime, maximizing productivity, and converting waste into profitable end products.
The Value of High-Horsepower Grinders
Some feedstocks, especially those processed in the debris removal and land cleanup industries, are exceptionally tough and can cause additional wear and tear to recycling equipment. Rotochopper high-horsepower grinders use high-torque rotors, an aggressive infeed system, and rugged, American-made engineering to process even the roughest feedstocks while minimizing production challenges and costly downtime. Because they’re engineered to handle the roughest feedstocks with unmatched efficiency, Rotochopper high-horsepower grinders typically have a longer lifespan than other models when tackling high-abrasion use cases.
In the horizontal grinding industry, time is money. In addition to reduced operational costs, high-horsepower recycling equipment can also increase productivity by processing large volumes of feedstocks reliably and efficiently. Most models, including the Rotochopper B-Series, feature both an increased rate of processing and an aggressive infeed system that allow them to intake large amounts of feedstocks in a very short time—which is critical for industries that work on tight deadlines.
High-Horsepower Recycling Equipment Use Cases
High-horsepower diesel grinders are best suited to industries that process large volumes of abrasive feedstocks. Rotochopper high-horsepower grinders are ideally used in the construction and demolition, storm debris, forestry, biomass, and whole orchard recycling industries. Because of their rugged design, Rotochopper high-horsepower diesel grinders can handle even the most abrasive feedstocks, including tree stumps, asphalt shingles, telephone poles, logs, and more.
Even industries that do not process particularly abrasive feedstocks can take advantage of the increased load capacity of these grinders to increase processing rates and improve operational stability, productivity, and profitability.
