Bio-Sawdust For Biomass And Pellet Plants - Bandit Beast Recyclers

New technology developed by Bandit Industries for its Beast horizontal grinders may change the way that we process material for biomass power plants and pellet plants. In 2007, Bandit Industries developed a chipping option for its Beast Recyclers enabling Beast owners to quickly convert the machine from a grinder to a whole tree chipper. Bandit has refined the chipping option, allowing the Beast to effectively produce a 1/4"-minus sawdust-like chip, a conventional chip size of 3/4"-minus, or any size in between. When producing a sawdust-type product, the chipping operation generally yields better than 95% acceptable material (¼" minus) in one pass. Because the Beast chipping system uses a cutting action, as opposed the beating action used in hogs and hammermills, far less energy is consumed in producing the fine material. The wood fibers are cut, not fractured. Pellet operations report that this type of material packs much more efficiently into the pellet dies, yielding greater production.

Do you have any videos of the smaller 3090 in action?

[banditchippers]

Yes ... we just recently acquired some new footage of a 3090 doing large diameter trees.  We'll try to cut one together and get it posted soon. Check back soon and thanks for your request!!

Wow, these are awesome machines. We have lots of trees in our property. How much would one of these cost to rent or to own? Are you ever going to be in the northeast, in the norwich, New York area? Thanks.

DO NOT PUT TRUCK TIRES THROUGH!!!! lol cause my buddy already done tht and the cord got wrapped up in the cutter head.

thumbs up for appropriate use of heavy metal

we have a modle 150 chipper ( back when it was brush bandit)its the best chipper in the would.we have had it foe years.if we had to get a new chipper i konw it would be a bandit

Nice. I developed a knife tooth conversion for the existing toolholder in the Beast about 6 years ago. I should have brought it to you guys then...
