We present our latest reinforced disc wood chipper model – WOODGRAIN R1500. Petrol-powered model designed for efficient chipping of branches up to 12 cm in diameter. The R1500 is not just a chipper – it is an advanced machine featuring modern solutions for improved performance and safety, compliant with current European directives.
Petrol Wood Chipper R1500 is a powerful and robust branch shredder designed for professional users involved in wood processing and disposal. Equipped with a reliable DUCAR engine with a displacement of 420 cm³ and an output of 15 HP, it delivers high reliability and efficiency in both industrial and service environments. The machine enables fast processing of wood material into chips sized 20–40 mm, which can be used as fuel, compost, or horticultural material.
Main advantages of the machine
- High power and performance – the DUCAR OHV petrol engine ensures optimal operating parameters and long service life.
- Durable construction – the use of a cast iron cylinder liner increases wear resistance and improves lubrication.
- Advanced safety features – automatic ignition cut-off system and emergency safety switch located in the feed hopper.
- Easy operation and transport – foldable feed hopper and large wheels with a diameter of 45 cm.
- Versatile application – suitable for shredding fresh and dry wood of varying hardness.
Design and technology
The R1500 chipper is equipped with a drive system using V-belts and a centrifugal clutch, ensuring smooth and safe power transmission to the working drum. The Hardox 500 steel used for the blades is characterised by exceptional abrasion resistance, resulting in extended service life without the need for frequent replacement of cutting components.
The feed hopper is positioned at an optimal angle to facilitate material feeding, while the 360° rotating discharge chute allows precise direction of the chip stream. The self-feeding drum design improves workflow and minimises the need for manual feeding.
Precision and work efficiency
The 15 HP engine, high drum rotational speed (2000 rpm), and two working blades ensure uniform branch shredding. The chipper allows cutting of fresh soft wood up to 120 mm in diameter, fresh hardwood up to 100 mm, and dry hardwood up to 80 mm. This enables efficient material processing under various conditions while maintaining high chipping quality.
Applications
The R1500 model is a professional choice for companies involved in green area maintenance, agricultural holdings, municipal services, and wood waste processing enterprises. It is also suitable for sawmills and biomass production companies. The resulting wood chips can be used in heating systems, as compost material, or as garden mulch.
