Chipper manufacturer’s Beast XP Series recyclers can now process coastal vegetation.
Bandit Industries, Remus, Michigan, has introduced new options for its Beast XP Series recyclers that it says will allow the Beast equipment to process coastal vegetation, viney material and other dense, stringy green waste like palms and vines.
The chipper manufacturer’s Model 2680XP, 3680XP and 4680XP Beast horizontal grinders feature new designs, including a system with a 30-tooth setup and 2-inch-wide teeth compared with the standard 60-tooth, 1-inch-wide teeth arrangement. Bandit says while a 60-tooth setup is still ideal for grinding wood of a larger diameter, this system setup works best for processing leafy, stringy material.
Beast XP Series recyclers also are equipped with a new proportional drive system for hydraulics on the equipment’s feed system, helping to deliver maximum feeding rates without overfeeding the machine. Bandit says this updated system will monitor engine loads and automatically adjust the feed rate to match. The system has the ability to not only proportionally feed, Bandit says, but also can switch over to six different feed speeds.
