MULTIPLE USES Hay and Staw, Ear Corn, Small Grains: Shelled Corn, Milo, Wheat & Barley, Cardboard & Paper, Wood Chips & Bark, Silaged Bales. The TUB GRINDER has no belt, chain or gear box drives to wear out. This simplicity of design allows the TUB GRINDER to be sold at such a low price. The most astonishing feature of the TUB GRINDER is its lower horsepower requirements and smoother operation. The rotor cuts across the tub floor from the outside to the center and much of the grinding is done in the tub before the material reaches the main grinding area. The rotor is three to five times heavier per inch of shear length than competitive machines and this extra weight builds inertia that makes the TUB GRINDER the smoothest running grinder on the market and the easiest on tractor power take-offs.The capacity will surprise you. Ten to twenty ton per hour in fairly dry conditions with 70 to 80 horsepower can be expected. Also the TUB GRINDER uses shear plates instead of screens which makes it even more desirable in wet, tough conditions. Individually adjustable shear plates replace screens to control particle size, these shear plates are adjustable from ground level and can be adjusted with speed and ease. A High Capacity-Low Cost grinder that can grind dairy quality alfalfa without getting it too fine. We can now grind this good quality alfalfa to the desired length for all operations. Any length from 2" to 6" stems. We accomplish this by using a special ALFALFA HAMMER that weighs 38 a piece. These hammers will stay extended in this good quality feed at 540 This lower tip speed does not powder the leaves. Horsepower requirement is reduced to about half (from 60 and up) and the capacity remains high. LOW PROFILE SPECIAL: Same as above but for the operator who wants to use a lower lift Skid Steer loader to feed the Tub Grinder. Only 7'4 high and 8 6 wide at the top of the tub.
