Biomass Chipper

Hi All new to all this - first post so not quite how it works.

I have small tree surgery business in Aberdeen with 6 employees. I have decided to get a crane fed chipper with a view to produce woodchips for local biomass and get rid of our waste. Thinking about the Heizohack 8-400. Looking for advice on whether this Is the right machine for me or any other experience/advise.

thanks

You'll probably get more responses if you post in the firewood forum or general. 

 

The 400 is a good choice, we've got the 300. You'll need a minimum 120hp, there's 2 versions - one for hand feed and one for crane. You can carefully crane feed the hand one but I wouldn't want to hand feed the crane version (awkward and dangerous).

we chose heizohack for many reasons and don't regret it, go see one working, have a demo try it 1st, try to get to speak to someone who is using the same as you want, ask if you want more info,

I would love to know more about this. Esp the price per ton achievable for the product....

 

Usually log some but send a quite a bit away for biomass as arb wood. Have thought about breaking it all up and chipping it several times.

Remembed that we filled two silage trailers with chip in a 6 hr day, handball in cut wood in - using timber grab, on cut lengths filled it up as fast as you liked. K
