Model 2710D -Horizontal Grinders

The 2710D’s large feed opening can reduce a wide range of materials. Measuring 60¾ x 32 inches (153 x 81 cm), when boosted by Peterson’s high lift feed roll, the feed opening’s maximum lift of 44 inches (112 cm), is amongst the largest in its class.

The 2710D features a large grate area that enables it to produce materials to exact specifications. Our quick-change multiple grate system makes it easy to customize grate configurations to produce a wide variety of finished materials. Grates are removed through an easy-access door on the side wall.

Triple grouser, 19¾” (50 cm) wide tracks enables better handling on hilly or rocky terrain, maximizing your productivity.
Since 1981, Peterson has specialized in the developing of delivery and processing equipment that turns low-grade organic materials into high value products.
