This conventional mulcher for medium-heavy forestry applications now has a turbo clutch version.
The mulcher pioneer Prinoth has now been producing improved versions of its efficient mulchers for 30 years. In a European context, the M650m mulcher for medium-heavy forestry service is a familiar, well-established machine. Now this best-seller is available with a fluid coupling. The newly-developed mulcher M650M TURBO by Prinoth now offers even greater reliability in service. With a rotor diameter of 650 mm (25.6 inch) from 200 to 400 hp (147 to 294 kW), the mulcher will impress with its patented turbo clutch.
In forestry applications, the gross weight of a vehicle is becoming more and more of a talking point due to changing weather conditions. As a result, customers are asking for machines with less weight that can still be used with up to 300/350 hp (220/257 kW) for relatively hard work such as stump removal and ground clearance. With a weight of 3,700 kg (8157 lbs), the M650M TURBO is lighter than other attachments in its class and thus meets these requirements. The patented synchronized control of the PTO shaft (W-Kinematics) allows maximum digging of the mulch cutter with an optimum PTO shaft path at full engine speed. The main advantage of the turbo coupling is the overload protection, which reduces the risk of damage to the tractor during mulching to a minimum. The turbo coupling compensates for power peaks that occur under tough working conditions and thus protects the entire drive system.
The M650m TURBO is currently available with a working width of 2350 mm (92.5 inch), but the range will include other working widths in the future. The proven UPTs rotor concept with efficient shredding technology can be used on the mulcher as well as the BCS tool system, which scores points above all with its cutting depth limiter. Source
