@@daybot9592 its almost like the shredder is stationary and the excavator doesn't have a blade to push material around and instead of stopping to rearrange material or reposition himself a loader just keeps him on the same task therefore being more efficient....Is there an occupation where I can get paid to point out the obvious?
Wood Chip Piles and Sons have been building the best wood chip piles for over 100 years. We watch our piles grow and check each one for height and consistency.
Of course you can tell that they are not the investors.....or potential customers considering purchasing the equipment being demonstrated in a real world demo!
Alot of people would like to scrap through that pile! I guarantee there is some really good usable lumber in there! I got enough lumber off of one construction site a few years back to build 3 small out buildings 12x16. And could of had more just no place to store the lumber and tires of packing home lumber. Lol.
There was a guy in new Zealand, who had builders across the street from him, and he go friendly with them and started taking stuff, from old houses the construction crew were renovating, they let him on site every day for an hour while they was cleaning up before home time. He sometimes had to take doors off hinges and stuff like that, it was free but at the cost of his own labor! All in all after 2 years of following then around his local area, he collected enough stuff to build a 4 bedroom house wiring and all, and fully furnish it, for an hour of his day each day, just cost him fuel money!
@@GunNtonic well I guess they are making money but it's still wasteful if there was usable lumber in there. Have you seen the price of lumber? Nothing like cutting up good boards to dump around houses to rot down. When it could be re purposed to build a home or garage, etc.
I’m reminded of an episode of The Simpsons. The one where Homer offered to help his neighbour, Ned Flanders sort through the deeply sentimental and precious possessions of his recently deceased wife.
So many questions, are you guys demoing the 3600, how come you dont have a truck under the conveyor belt or a metal bend under the magnet, and why didn't the operator start down by the gate.
Come on you people,putting a 50 yard Hook Lift container under that belt to collect the wood waste requires someone with brains to organise it and obviously the managers stood in the background haven’t got any and they talk about saving the planet. That wood waste will have to be reloaded using more fuel and more pollution,what a bunch of Tossers.
I remember grinding demolition and we put an iron oxide color on it. We then sold it as mulch for good money. This is why I never buy bagged mulch.I always wondered about paint chips leaching into the soil. People heard “Recycled” and thought it was a good thing to buy. The pallets from chemical companies were the worst.
Or just don't and burry that shit in the ground with a bunch of plastic to fill in the gaps. Seriously this isn't helping the environment at all with all the diesel that thing gulps down.
It's a common feature on material handlers. It allows the operator to see inside high sided trailers or, in this case, see the feeder hopper on the grinder.
it have a magnet seperator,, i just wish they had placed a little container under the black chute hanging under the conveyer.. But a magnetic top roller in the conveyer is pretty smart since metal-steel usually is heavyer than wood. notice the grey stuff sliding off the black chute and piling up near the grinder.
@@samkom33 yes, it needs something to catch it or an auxiliary belt to take it away...as it sits, as the two pile grow, they're just going to mix together...you can see they already are here.
@@shanspipeguytx8564 yes but the setup in this video is quite unusual.. in 2 of the 3 local scrapyards, the usually let the conveyer go straight in to a container ore truck,, and at the 3rd smaller dumpsite its a wheel loader removing the chips almost as fast as they comes from the grinder.. but here in kristiansand they dont have mountains of scrap wood. hehe. its the same grinder working on all 3 scrapyards, a few days a week on each dumpsite,, and most of the chips go to a local heat plant that delivers hot water to most of the houses in kristiansand city. in addition to wood chips it burn some regular household garbage thats sorted out, and dont contain to much metal ore food waste.
My guess is that this is a demo of the grinder, there's no collection or set up to remove the crushed wood. When it's running properly I'd say there'd be longer belts, magnets and everything that would be needed to process all the chipped wood
Them grinders work really fast. It's usually a feed problem or not enough conveyor length. You can rent them grinders for around $9500.00 a week in our area.
I too would've rather heard the crushing and diesel sounds. But it was filmed with a drone so all you would've heard is props buzzing, unless they recorded the sound with a microphone and layered the audio onto the video. Seems they were more interested in sharing the visuals.
It's hilarious to read some of the comments. Y'all It would take a good operator about three days to work that pile down. I watched a friend run through a stump pile half that size in 12 hours
In the UK they turn it all in to floor boards for new build houses. You need to be careful when cutting through them because you can catch a piece of an old nail or metal hinge etc. I suppose it’s still better than sending it all to land fill.
@@claesmansson9070 I would challenge you to find a crusher, shredder or chipper that removes 100% of the metal from waste material, when you’re operating at maximum flow or capacity as this machine likely was in the video it’s nearly impossible to remove all the nails and other metallic objects from the processed material. The flow is too quick and nobody has the time or the money to send it through again for a second pass.
Its not only depending on the magnet after the chipper,it s also depending on the industry using the material after crushing.Metaldetectors mon ami,beep beep.They can if they want!100 %?I dont know,think they can down to metal dust,but don t think they do/want to.
It is mandatory in Sacandinavia in each country that the small cities have recycling plants where they get the trash separated.This is probably a month a wort of wood from a region in a country..
@@sergeybebenin the wood without any paint and the one who is not pressure treated is milled as shown and than it gets on some conveyor belts where some very huge magnets remove the nails and the material is used for making fire bikets that are sold afterwards in the supermarket or gas stations for house warming,mostly on the houses outside the cities.
@@sergeybebenin the ones with paint on,is burned on a huge power plant,together with other trash,but not food waste.Food waste is recycled for methane and than is used as fertilizer in agriculture.Hope I answered your question while not being too boring.
It's 2200 miles from Alberta, Canada to Dallas, Texas. Considering freight cost, it would be much less expensive to heat with natural gas or petroleum. Plus the pellet stoves require electricity to run and burn.
@@trevisgardner The natural gas in Texas was frozen in February. Yes they could have used petroleum but that would be a large oil tank and those are no longer allowed to be stored underground. Wood does not have to come all the way from Canada. You can make wood pellets from scrap wood, leaves, brushes and many other materials besides wood from Canada. Wood pellets bags can be stored on your property and not worry about such things like oil spills.
@@jonny777bike Natural Gas doesn’t freeze. My home is heated by NG and it’s been down to -20 here in the past with no interruption in service. Something else was to blame, not the gas.
@@normanreed572 Yeah it looks the the production of gas had problems during the Texas freeze. The good thing with wood pellets at your home is that you aren't dependent on a system in case SHTF. You still need electric to operate the stove but you can use a battery backup for that. Texas is going to go through a lot of public hearings on it before we learn the full truth. With climate change we don't know the full extent to how we are affecting the weather patterns but we must be prepared and that includes all of the states as well as the rest of the world.
@@jonny777bike Mu point was there is no problem with Natural Gas as such. There was a distribution problem. Natural Gas comes up out of the ground without help from electricity or any other power source. Getting the gas from the well head to points of use is the problem. Wood pellets would have the same problem unless they are stored in bulk. Both pellets and gas need electricity to burn in a furnace so the electric grid is vital. Wind and solar don’t work so well in the winter or at night or on calm overcast days and the sooner the greenies get this through their heads the better off we all will be.
Seems like a good idea and maybe this is a demo scale, hence the three observers. Maybe it can be scaled up in the future. Must be a few nails and screws in the pile though
nails and screws are no problem if they replace the WOOD knifes with grinder teeth say like this that chew STEEL and ROCKS too without problem. its the speed and force of the rotor that CRUSH the wood.. its not beeing CUT like we normaly think by a SHARP knife. www.rotochopper.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/replaceable-mount-rotor-cropped.jpg
@@themediaman100 maybe he did,, but did he notice that even this grinder seperated out all magnetic metal? Although this grinder had the elektromagnet on the top conveyer roller instead of a extra cross belt closer to the maskine. Notice the grey stuff sliding off the black chute hanging under the conveyer and is piling up as a grey pile of scrap steel. BUT yes too much metal often is a problem in ovens burning say trash becouse it can make the ash hard to remove.
@@ibluedesolation yes living trees are valuable, but at least here in norway with most our tree types, its better to harvest a forest every 40-80 years. becouse if you dont REPLACE the trees most of the trees would be laying on the ground rotting
It's hard to believe how much stuff gets tossed in modern civilization. At least it is going to have a second use. OSB material maybe? It's hard to see how big the chips are.
Omg, I would blow my brains out if I was the guy operating that machine that was loading the chipper/grinder... Swinging back and forth all day... No thank you.
If you look closely, you’ll see that the top pulley on the conveyor is magnetic. It grabs the nails, staples, screws, etc., and throws them into that long chute hanging underneath. The iron bits then slide down and are lying on the surface right in front of the machine. A cross-belt separator can also be installed which is even more effective.
@@melin1969 Insurance liability wavers take care of that problem easily. In my line of work, I do salvage work at times for bigger companies and most places just give me a generic liability waiver form to fill out and then it doesn't matter what happens to me from thereon. My Eff up is my problem, not theirs.

with that much material I'd be running 3 of them chippers and lining up the semis for a 1/2 mile long to fill up and be grinding 24 hours with only fuel fillups and knives changes every 12 hours.
This is the job that never ends. Yes it goes on and on my friend. One poor sap started doing it, not knowing what it was, And he'll continue doing it forever just because *that pile is fucking infinite.*
