The Inner Workings of a Terex Chipper

Terex TAC 790 Wood Chipper for Sale at Mico Equipment

Terex Company introduced its special wood chipper range in 2013. They are vital pieces of equipment in farming, agriculture and industrial lumbering to cut timber into chips or sawdust. Terex Chippers are made up of several different parts, including a collection bin, a powerful chipper and a hopper. The Terex chipper‘s internal power source has a combustion engine ranging from 5 to 1,000HP depending on the chipper’s size.

How does a Terex wood chipper work?

The Terex commercial wood chipper range has all the working features like a powerful internal engine, either fossil-fueled or with an automatic electric motor giving direct power to the device. The chipper’s gearbox normally uses pulleys and v-belts to attach the engine to a set of sharp knives. These pulleys allow the engine to control the construction equipment machine’s speed while the v-belt transmits the engine’s power. The gearbox’s inner gear also assists in controlling chipper’s speed and power.

Terex wood chippers have two separate channels for processing planks. The first channel is the smaller one, which lets it shred wood branches into fine chips. The second and larger tube features sharp blades and additional tools such as hammers, which can easily turn excess plant material (such as leaves and grass) into mulch.

Based on the type of blades in the chipper, an operator can determine which channel to use depending on the wood size and condition. The blades are independently operated so they can be turned on and off separately. Mico Equipment offers this useful Terex heavy equipment for sale at low prices.
