Terex Environmental

Formerly known as the CBI 5800BT, the TBG 650 portable grinder was developed to feature the same principles of the TBG 680, but is purpose-built for contractors dealing with lower production needs or transportation restrictions. The TBG 650 gives land clearing companies, yard waste and demolition wood processors, and mulch yards what they need for high-volume throughput and maximum reliability. Among its notable features are the unique clamshell opening hog box for ease of maintenance, hydrostatic feed system and diverter pan.


Rotochopper
DEMO 2016 Booth: A-18
The EC series are built for mid-sized grinder uptime and efficiency and can deliver engineered fibre commodities from a wide range of raw materials. Upgrades to the EC platform include a full-length roller bed collection conveyor, roller bed discharge conveyor, wear liners, and independent colorizer controls (optional). These upgrades result in even cleaner operation, simpler maintenance, and lower operating costs than before. The advantages of these upgrades become particularly evident in facilities that grind steady streams of green fibre.
