RER Spotlights: Chippers/Shredders, Floorcare and Scaffolding

Nov. 1, 2012
RER magazine spotlights chippers/shredders, floorcare, and scaffolding products from

Vermeer’s BC900XL can chip heavily branched material up to 9 inches in diameter, and is designed for line clearing and general cleanup needs. A 9-inch by 14-inch feed opening reduces the need to trim branched material before feeding it into the chipper; a 33-inch-diameter disc rotates at 1,400 rpm and features two steel chipper knives with two usable cutting edges each. Two shear bars have two usable edges each to help extend wear life. The patented SmartFeed system monitors engine rpm and automatically stops and reverses the single horizontal feed roller when feeding larger, hardwood material. The unit is equipped with safety features such as a long feed table design, bottom feed stop bar and a four-position feed control bar.

The Beever M15R from Morbark features a 30-inch diameter drum and a four-knife drum that makes two cuts per revolution, enhancing knife life. Its bearing-style pivot system contours the radius of the drum to reduce dead space behind the feed wheel, reducing hydraulic down pressure load while increasing down pressure efficiency. The vortex-chambered air impeller system offers a separate airflow chamber to increase throwing velocity, adding more positive flow to leafy material to reduce plugging. The TorqMax dual-feed wheel compression system generates more than 6,600 foot-pounds of material pulling force, the maker says. Optional rear-mounted curbside controls allow the operator to control the machine from one location with complete view of in-feed and drum areas.
