The road tow wood chipper
that beats the 750 kg limit
Everything about the new QuadChip series of wood chippers has been designed around years of practical experience and consultation with users. What we've engineered is the result of your demands, fulfilled in an efficient and environmentally sound package.
6" x 9" (160 mm x 230 mm) capacity.
360º turntable with AL-KO chassis - keeps operator safely out of danger zone.
Powerful 34 hp water cooled turbo diesel engine.
Wide infeed chute for easy reduction of dense material.
Fold down, 280º rotating discharge chute for compact transport and storage.
Homologated chassis - keeps you ahead of 2010 trailer legislation.
Twin vertical hydraulic feed rollers.
Unique 4-sided QuadChip blade system using 4 cutting edges in rotation, before sharpening.
Turbo discharge of hot air from engine compartment (Patent applied for) enabling acoustic sealing (optional) and more powerful discharge throw.
Swing out fuel and oil tanks for easy access to drive belts and bearings.
Weight below 750 kg at standard specification.
The QuadChip 160 is a clean-sheet design from the ground up; a combination of ideas gleaned from customers, teamed with the latest technology. The result: a robust wood chipper that maintains the quality, performance and reliability so essential for today’s tree surgeons.
GreenMech have blended cutting edge design with proven technology, utilising modern materials and traditional engineering to produce a chipper will stand up to years of use in arboriculture, one of the most demanding land-based industries.
TURNTABLE
The QuadChip 160 is a 6" machine with a turntable that allows the ultimate positioning of the infeed chute for convenience of access, especially in limited spaces. More importantly it ensures safer use when working from the roadside. Looking good from any angle, the design allows the chute to be moved to 90º of the draw bar so that the rear of the machine stays within the width of the axle and does not protrude into the path of traffic.
ENGINE
The engine is a 34hp Kubota diesel engine giving a total weight of UNDER 750 Kg. There is also a lockable fuel tank, and oil dip stick on the hydraulic tank.
CAPACITY
The high throughput of each machine is provided by dual vertical feed rollers and a 6"x9" (160 mm x 230 mm) letterbox opening, offering an exceptional crushing capacity on difficult branches and fast processing of leafy brash.
BLADE SYSTEM
The QuadChip 160 features a new square blade system, developed for the machine. An evolution of the successful and popular Disc-Blade that GreenMech pioneered, the QuadChip 160 blades are 4 sided giving 4 edges in one, offering an increased time period between rotations, plus a simple removal and sharpening process. (Alternatively, Disc-Blades can fitted to this machine for particular customer requirements).
FULLY FEATURED
Turbo Discharge of hot air from engine compartment (patent applied for) enables optional acoustic sealing and a more powerful discharge throw, resulting in reduced engine revs to revert to a normal throw, reduced noise levels and improved fuel economy.
To make maintenance and greasing easy we have included central greasing points to ensure correct applications. A Wide infeed chute aids easy reduction of bushy material. A fold down discharge chute allows compact storage and the homologated chassis complies with mandatory new trailer requirements.
