Morbark - Model 1000 -Tub Grinder
This small but powerful tub grinder is perfect for lower volume applications for land clearing, wood waste recycling, municipalities and compost facilities. Like Morbark’s larger grinders, the 1000 Tub Grinder includes the Morbark Integrated Control System (MICS), which allows you to monitor key systems and adjust feed rates. Equipped with a proven drive line protection system with torque limiter, this model also boasts hydraulic augers to quickly remove product and prevent plugging, a pinned rotor system and a variety of heavy-duty grates to produce different end products, and optional hinged tub flares for use during transportation.
The ultimate diagnostic system; monitors hydraulic pressures, temperatures, clutch systems, and engine efficiency to maximize performance.
Torque Limiter
Full breakaway torque limiter protects the engine and clutch against shock and overload without stalling the engine.
Hydraulic Augers
Quickly remove product from beneath the mill. During material surges, pressure sensors on the auger system automatically slow tub rotation to prevent plugging.
Tub Tilt
Provides easy access to grates and anvil for routine maintenance.
