The 4310B Track Mounted Drum Chipper is one of five models in the latest of a long line of chipping and grinding machines produced by Peterson.
It is suited for high-volume biomass production with a wide variety of feed material, from brush and small feedstock, to logs up to 60 centimetres in diameter.
Powered by a Caterpillar C18 Tier II 579 kW engine, the 4310B drum chipper was designed for operations requiring high production and frequent moves between jobs.
It provides chip lengths from three to 32 millimetres and can produce from 60 to 110 tonnes an hour.
Key features include a large drum, a sloped deck for ease of feeding, optional sizing grates, an optional feed accelerator, and a top-loading or end-loading spout, depending on the application.
Peterson specialises in developing processing equipment that turns low-grade organic materials into high value products. It has more than 40 years’ experience delivering heavy-duty machines that meet market demand for industry-leading performance, reliability, and quality.
