Towed wood chipper PTH 500 G

PTO-driven

The PTH 500, with a drum diameter of 660 millimetres, is ideal for sawmill waste and logs with a diameter of up to 40 centimetres and enables the production of top-quality wood chips that can be used as fuel for domestic heating systems, for farmhouses, hotels, schools, for heating nursery greenhouses, or for the production of pellets. On request, for customers who require top-quality, dust-free wood chips, Pezzolato can equip the PTH 500 with an evacuation belt to replace the exhaust fan. Routine maintenance and knife replacement are extremely easy and fast thanks to the ‘total’ lifting of the feed roller. The machines of the PTH 500 series can be fed manually or by mechanical means, or provide mixed solutions. For manual feeding only, the chipper is equipped with a sturdy safety bar and a state-of-the-art control panel to ensure intuitive and safe operation of the machine by the operator. Thanks to the large hopper, the chipper can also be fed with a forestry grapple, in which case the set-up includes a special radio control. A specific set-up is also available for those who use either manual or automatic loading modes: the machine is equipped with a safety bar and push-button panel that can be excluded in the case of feeding with external mechanical means. The main wear parts of machines in this range are specially designed for easy replacement, as well as being low cost. The exhaust fan, for example, is equipped with interchangeable internal volutes and thus allows the life of the wood chip expulsion system to be extended without machine downtime.
