Well clearly the answer here is you have to send this grinder back, buy the bigger 95DK for more fun and then tell rotochopper you need to demo a tub grinder for the stumps 😂
That application looks like a better one then the tires 👍
Feed that mulcher into the high-speed one , job done , metal taken out , double mulched with one operator !!!
Buy it just for the content!! I could watch this thing eat all day
Right?!
Maybe it's a combination of things like turning up the HP or some settings adjustments. I would give the sales representative a call and tell him what you're trying to shred and maybe he has some suggestions 😊
I don't know to much about the volumes and economies of your operation but to me it looks like it would make sense to put one of these in tandem with a high speed shredder and leave it at the crate and pallet wood and shred the wood literally as it comes in. As you said, it would mean that you could literally take in any wood that comes your way which should considerably increase the volume coming through just the scrap wood processing which might just make it viable to dedicate the equipment just for that use. Just a thought.
Good idea
Ryan i don't think you can run your business without this machine, it is mind blowing what it will eat 😂, as well we get extra YT video's while you demo this rig TKU can't get enough of your content 💪👍
can't wait to see this machine in the landfill! Awesome piece of equipment!!!
There is something about watching a shredder at work. It is cool to see something that is a problem shredded into something useful.
I ran a WHO tub grinder back in the 90's that would've made short work of all that debris...it especially loved stumps, it was an amazing and violent machine.
With the amount of metal that comes from lumber scrap, pallets & crates, eventually you could have & recycle enough metal that COULD possibly pay for a small dumpster or some other kind of hard wearing container to pair up with the machine to catch more of the same material. That would be like with the excess unneeded concrete that’s used to make the LARGE concrete blocks for heavy duty retaining walls or to use for building containment bays or pens for keeping materials isolated so they don’t mix with anything else until you want them to. It’s incredible how the funds needed for some things just seems to SHOW UP only because of the existence of the processing of the material where there was possibly a problem. The problem becomes the answer!!! Absolutely incredible!!!!!!
Good point!
I’m afraid it just hasn’t got the power to deal with those stumps
Agree
Now thats some quality toilet paper 😂
🤣
Less talk....more work!!!
I've seen operators load the hopper full, the weight helps it feed. When a gas pipeline went through the porperty they have a shredder/chopper made by Vemeere, they spread the chips as they went and planted grass.
Greetings from the BIG SKY.
Hey, I was just up in your area!
That machine will shred a whole car, even if it reverses its self , just let it run , till its gone, like that deisel rim and tire , just let it cycle
👍👍
Its like a clothes washing machine, just let it cycle away,
Rotochopper brought a grinder to our mill to demonstrate how great it was. Well the yard man brought up a basswood slab and killed it.
Whoa!
Meant for pallets. Catcher hopper for metal so it doesn’t hit the ground. Don’t forget to send the magnet excavator around to pickup that metal on the ground.
that who'd be bad not picking up them nails and bolts
When you turn away work, you turn away money! If you can grind, chip or whatever, people can get work that you can take care of. Nice to see! 😂😂
That low speed shredder needs to be filling straight into the high speed shredder...no extra diesel to move it.
Ryan you guys have got to keep that machine, the amount of savings in the long run would be astronomically huge, saving on space now I stead of later is gonna be huge, it's worth it to invest in it now, thanks for sharing, that was awesome to see 🇺🇲💪🤙👍✊
Thanks buddy
One thing that would increase the overall speed for any of your grinders would be to get a small wheeled material handler with a hydraulic cab and 4 or 5 tine scrap grapple with an integrated magnet in the grapple center. Both Sennebogen and Liebherr make them. Wheeled to have speed between the different stations and get rid of undercarriage costs. The elevated cab keeps you off the piles and with a great view of the infeed tub. The magnet will let you pull the ferrous off the separate run material. It will speed your overall time X 1.5 times easy. Way less hassle than the excavator with a thumb.
The Roto Chopper handled the pallets, poles, scraps, etc. with no problem whatsoever. You were right about the need for a “catch container” for the majority of the metal that’s taken by the “MAG belt”. After a couple days of pallets, lumber, scraps, etc. I wouldn’t be surprised if the accumulation of metal that came from the wood might be close to 2 or 3 55 gal. drums. I don’t know if you’d agree but, to me I would definitely hold onto it until there was about a 1/2 ton or a full ton & take it to a recycling center as sorted scrap & get the maximum you can get for it. Just like what you’re doing with the wet concrete excess that’s not needed on new concrete jobs & using it to make the massive concrete retaining wall blocks. Those are 2 stellar ideas taking in a material 1.)unused wet concrete & 2.)broken/ unwanted pallets & utility pole rejects/ scraps, then make money on the unwanted material. Excellent ideas. To me it looks like you’ve got at least somewhat of a goldmine. As always great content & keep up the great work.
I believe you found the right piece of equipment for the landfill.
👍👍
The 7.3 service truck is the real hero of the video.
👍
Just figured out you are just across the river from me. Knew ya’ll were good people.
Enjoy the channel. Interesting technology going on with the stuff we throw away thinking it magically disappears..
Definitely a game changer wow can't wait for landfill video
When it finally does get a bite, it sure does rip and tear lol 👍😂
I love it
Sir You Need A Tub Grinder, Throw It In And Forget It!!!! Love Your Operation, And Your Channel!! Later Brother!!
Thanks!!
I look forward to these videos cause im like wonder what hes shredding today 😂
If you purchase one i would reduce the belt speed by 20% That will help remove more of the smaller pieces of metal.
Hi, on other RUclips channels, It shows basic machines that rip out the steel wires in any tyres. will make shredding far quicker and better.
Looks to do an awesome job with crush d pallets, with it removing 80% of metal, maybe you can get some fuel savings on the tub grinder by slowing it down but still getting the same volume. (Plus less maintenance and break downs)
It's like the Terminator meets Hungry Hungry Hippos!!!!!
That machine is very impressive and you certainly have given it a workout, Mr Digg
You should point that out to the folks at Rotochopper when you're negotiating the price for the shredder's new home (we know you're gonna buy it)
You can't buy advertising like that
Thanks Mr Digg
P.S. I like the fact you take the time to respond to every comment.
Any chance there's another live stream coming please?
Feels much more like a personal meeting and I've never been inappropriate in front of Miss Courtney (but I have enjoyed "meeting" you both)
Look after yourself Mr Digg and thanks again for the video 👍
I could watch that thing shred those pallets and poles all day long. Great videos and thanks for taking the time to make them!
Another benefit to the slow speed grinder is less fine material in the primary brake down process.
Thus more sellable material get to the colorizer instead of the compost pile.
Continues t impress me Ryan makes easy work on the pallets so many variables this machine would be suitable for looking forward to c&d landfill test day 💪💪💪🍻🍻🍻
I am still blow away with what this has eaten ! like you said if you who'd have but that wood throw your grinder that metal that is mixed there who'd just tear it up that shredder did not care about that metal it just throws it to the side like it's no one business it really seams like it who'd be a game changer for your business! keep up with your content I enjoy it and I think many others also do thank you for sharing with us all ! I cant wait to see more video's from you
A quick read of the brochure suggests there's three rotor options - coarse wood, fine wood, and MSW/C&D which I think is what you have now.
Given you're doing pretty much all materials with this, you probably don't want to be changing rotors and breaker bars all the time, so stick with the current set for your landfill and pallets as it handles them just fine.
Stumps, can either split them and try it with this or stick with the current operation of split and high speed grind.
Look forward to more vids!
If you get one of these slow speed shredders for your operation, and considering the small size of the shredded pallet material, maybe you could lower the magnetised belt a little closer to the the main belt and evict even more of the nails :)
I love the sound of that crunching wood
Really makes for great viewing you guys giving thing a work out bro. Safe travels. Ken.
I'm thinking you can definitely justify this machine if not many more.
That Shredder works really well I personally think it's brilliant with wood and the separation with the metal, Although it works with most items it struggle's to deal with rubber and various other items tough items, Almost need a next model up if there is such a thing to deal with the heaver work, another peace of kit to the collection if it's viable 😀
If I had one wish it would be everything would be recycled because I see so much waste its really disappointing, we all need to be more serious because it's a serious problem across the planet, Great content it's really interesting and fun to watch 👍👍
Of all the other grinder videos ive watched. To me those set of "teeth" are good for all around general purpose grinding. It will do the job of grinding stumps, just got to be a little patience with it. Also put 3 or 4 stumps in at a time to keep the pressure on the shafts to help feed the stumps. You can also ask the rep to see if changing out the rotors to one with more of a shredder hook would be more beneficial. Or even better have both kind of rotors, use the ones currently in the machine for everyday grinding. Then when thise rotors need hard faceing slap the hook rotors on and knock out the stumps. And when the others are done, switch them back. Also i believe there is a attachment for the excavator cab that can raise/ lower it, so both machines can be at ground level and the operator can still see in the hopper.
The EDGE shredder is better suited for that wood. That things a beast!!
man the space yall would save is amazing
Nice and cool
Mr. Digg, you have got some the best toys available! I love your videos. Your excitement is genuine and as my dad used to say, “If you do something you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.” I hope you all buy shredder, she’d fit perfect into your operations.
Thank you for another Great Video ! Cheers
Thank you too!
Gotta buy it now... you wore the paint off the hopper
Lol. Nice machine
If it can bite it, it sure can chew it. Aaron got cogliuns ....you would definitely won't catch me that close to the edge on that machine 😮🙏
It’s like any mouth, in that some teeth are incisors (adhere), and some are molars which -
along with back & forth grinding - are more effective with other mouthfuls.
“Are you playing with your food again son??”
“Yes, Mom…”
“Well, just so you don’t lose an eye! May sure you wash your hands when you come back in. Have fun!”
correction: (as here) not (“adhere”)
Lol
hell yes , this was fun, Now we want a larger one. lol
The tonnage per hour is amazing when you get setup right would be amazing
Shredders are like vacuum cleaners . They all work fine the first day you own them . But its all down hill after that . . I would rent all day long but I would never own .
Good advice
Thanks guys for the content I love it it's very therapeutic and relaxing 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome shredder 👍Like how it catches so much Metal also Bet if you slowed the Main belt down a bit it would catch a lot more metal. Ohh and that little Railroad Spike you seen is a Date nail for Railroad tie ends. Liking all your content 👍
You've got a lot of high dollar machinery to keep running . Some days go great and some days you can't win for losing . Keep your head up and rock on bro .
Thanks, you too!
great video Ryan, can't wait to see it in the landfill 👍👍👍👍👍
I see a RotoChopper in your future..... LOL 😂😂😂
It's still, very interesting 🤔
Let's get to shredding!!
Mr. Digg the grinder has no problem with the pallet debris. How big a dent did you get in the tires getting rid of all of them enjoy the video man y’all stay safe. Keep them coming days are counting down to the super slide. Can’t wait.
Aaron is such a prize asset!
My office shredder is more powerful than that, what a waste of my time
You should buy 2 of those 1 for the pallet pile and 1 for the landfill
I could watch this machine for hours.
A nice side profit in scrap metal right there. Especially if that is 30 minutes worth. I guess it is technically clean because it isn’t a gearbox housing with studs or that ilk.
👍
Some machine, viewing from County SLIGO Ireland 🇮🇪 🇺🇦🤠🚲📷✍
Hey SLIGO!
👍👍
👍👍🍻
How do you guys like the Kobelco 210
Been a very reliable machine
two side by side.,.,maybe,..Tkzz for sharing,.,.peace
Watching the start...first thoughts - you got big troubles man!
Worth a try I guess. It needs more drum speed, check out something like a Vermeer TG7000 for wood 👍
Will do 👍
I wonder how much faster the high speed would process the pallets after going thru the shredder. Seems like it would chop faster. Also need a bin under the magnet for easy clean up of it
Much faster
👍
Impressive, just imaging steping on those rotors then the machine starts up lol there would be some mince meat and blood stains !!!!
That would definitely be a good buy for you guys
i think so too
needs a bin for the metal scraps
👍
Letsdig 18 would love this Rotachopper! :))
Ole Shreader ran thru everything you put thru it its a BAD-ASS machine thats for shure
And all that metal selling it as metalscrap is extra money so i think in the end you will not only save speedgrinder but make cherry on the cake in the end
Couldn’t you have the set up where the slow shredder feeds into the high-speed shredders
Not sure about this brand but i've seen plenty of shredders devouring stumps without a problem. Like you're talking about with debris and not wanting it to go through your horizontal high speeds.This is a perfect application for stumps because they're full of rocks and dirt. So either get a sheer Or I see you have the screw.Or maybe they have different teeth for that thing.But again i've seen plenty of other brands devouring stumps. Half to talk to a sales rep. Because ive also seen when they plug only one roll goes back the other goes forward or stays still so it's always grinding
Thanks for watching
We use a cat 977 to push our wood that's about the setup we got they probably did close 2 7000 yrd
Need a mobark grinder it would eat through that stuff like nothing and those big ones would be seconds this this is just good for like things with metal anything else it's slow with keep it for the tires and other metal things and get a mobark grinder for wood and pallets be alot more efficient
Well clearly you should try a Doppstadt !! Best machine ever for this type of application ! Look at some video about the inventhor type 9 and you will see that's exactly what you need!
Pretty cool Ryan..
Would be nice if it had replicable teeth/cutters instead of having to replace the whole assembly
Awesome content Mr. Digg 🎉
More to come!
If you want to use the shredder for stumps you need to shear the stumps first. Or to save an operation you need a tub grinder.
A horizontal grinder will only process quite small stumps and really you should only process very small clean stumps in them.
A shredder isn’t really suitable in my opinion for timber, tub grinders or horizontals are the tool of choice for timber.
A shredder would be suitable for old sleepers as we call them here in Australia you guys call them railroad ties.
They being hardwood tend to give most grinders a very hard time, especially here with our Eucalyptus trees where our railway sleepers of old came from.
The 75 DK shredder 375 HP
the 95 DK shredder 770 HP
Get the 95 DK
Get a Beek for the excavator and use that to split and load the stumps. And by the way tighten them tracks up on excavator less wear.
Pallets and poles and stumps oh my! Just my opinion, and you know what opinions are, it's home would be pallets and poles. I bought some brand name bagged mulch, had to dig out a bunch of big pieces.
Mr. Digg, looks like you'd better call and tell the company that YOU'RE keeping this shredder?😊
Loan me some money?
Wish I could grab those cut logs. They'd be great for landscaping.
general steel buildings can give you a real good deal the material for a big high ceiling metal building for a shop and whatever else
The hook rotor helps to grab and pull in the odd shaped stumps the him grabs and pre splits the stump for better feeding also the fibrous log that Aaron put in first would have gone through I think it needed to be set to higher setting basically more bite before reversing i.e more bite before puking lol I've seen these grinders feed right into the high speed grinder or a screen system two operations one operator. I even saw a demo of slow speed grinding pallets to a high speed to a star screen which was set to screen double shred and triple shred mulch and the over size was thrown back into the high speed with a wheel loader as a pile built up one company had a slow speed and high speed grinder built into one unit i think it was a doppstadt dz 750
Next on the shopping list….a drone. Now that would give some fab views. Or maybe get someone in just for one video?
Need a new one
