Sawdust Producer

Morbark, Inc. now offers a second Quick Switch conversion kit, allowing grinder owners to further diversify their product offerings by simply modifying the hammermill of their Morbark horizontal grinder. The original conversion kit gave Morbark grinder owners the ability to make high quality standard size chips. The new Sawdust Quick Switch conversion kit also allows grinder owners to supply the large volume sawdust market. Markets for sawdust include animal bedding, wood fuel pellet production, cellulosic ethanol and co-firing with coal. Sawdust is actually the preferred material for wood fuel pellet production and co-firing with coal. The basic difference between the two Quick Switch conversion kits is the number of knives and their configuration. The Sawdust kit uses up to 16 knives where the original kit has up to 12 knives.

The Morbark Quick Switch conversion kit does not require removing the hammermill from the unit or replacing the hammers with small knife bits. The Quick Switch actually converts the hammermill into a drum with full sized knives so it acts just like a chipper. Conversion is possible in the field, without a crane, and can be done faster than any other conversion on the market. The Quick Switch conversion kit is available on Morbark horizontal grinder models 3800, 4600, 4600XL and 6600 from any model year, wheeled or track versions.
