Chip Processing
Demuth DPM forest chipper was developed to chip whole trees, wood edges, branches and roots, for biomass purposes. After processing, the chips are blown into a bucket located at the chipper back side. When the bucket is full, chips are thrown onto a truck to be transported to the final destination.
The chipping process results in a significant volume reduction, making those initially unattractive materials highly profitable.
Productivity
The chipper is pulled by a farm tractor and driven by its power take-off.
The DPM chipper can work continuously due to construtive figures, regardless of whether the tractor is moving or stationary. Allied to this advantage, the chipper in-feed system generates a high yielding for this machine type.
Durability
Due to an extremely sturdy and flexible construction (double welded beams), a long life time is obtained for this equipment. No extra care with forest roads is necessary, as the machine is able to easily adapt to the field unevenness.
The chipper is optionally supplied with a hydraulic brake system and a hydraulic auxiliary compacting system located at the forced in-feed.
The machine can be supplied either with or without bucket.
* Estimated production based on material with 40% humidity, humid weight of 800 kg/m3 and chips of 25/30 mm long.
** The recommended power is directly related to the desired production.
*** The chip length can vary according to the final need and equipment yield.
