HJ500C – The biggest PTO-driven disc chipper on the market

The Junkkari HJ-500C is a powerful trailed disc chipper that can be used with logs up to 17.5 inch (45cm) in diameter. It is one of the only high-capacity chipper based on disc and not drum chipping technology. A disc chipper will need less fuel consumption on the tractor as the disc is not as heavy as a drum to make it revolve. It also produces less fine particules which is a good quality criteria for biomass fuel.

At best, the HJ500C chipper can reach a chipping efficiency of over 100 cubic meters (3531 cubic feet) per hour. A high chipping efficiency and a robust infeed chute enable the use of load feeding. The woodchip quality is uniform and chip size can be adjusted.

Feed opening is set to a 45 degree angle to the blade, thus allowing an excellent view from the tractor cabin for accurate and efficient work.

Standard Equipment:
– primary and secondary PTO-shaft (note! 1 3/4″ 6-grooved)
– trailer coupling
– electrical No-stress rotation guard to regulate the feed according to tractor power
– electric controller for tractor cabin
– electro-hydraulic turning of discharge chute and visor
– electro-hydraulic tilting of discharge chute into transport position
– feed roller control
– No-stress setting

The Wizard-C+ control unit controls the direction of the discharge chute, the feed rollers and the no-stress rotation guard. Feed rollers can also be controlled by foot pedals.

​Accessories
– brushwood blade for the chamber (uses 1)
– brushwood blade for the disc (uses 2)
– hydraulic lifting of the upper feed roller
– upper chamber tilting cylinder
– discharge chute extension (length 50 cm)

In addition to the brushwood blades for the disc that is available on all models, the HJ-500C features also an optional brushwood blade for the chipping chamber, upgrading the quality of woodchips made from branches, small pieces of wood and surface boards.
