Ken Newman, general manager of Royal Oak Farms LLC, a composter in central Virginia needed a shredder that would handle stumps from land clearing. After doing a lot of homework and field-testing, he chose the Komptech Crambo and started running land-cleared wood through it.
To meet the challenges of the wild tree stumps, Austria-based Komptech says it decided to improve the Crambo for more longevity, creating the new Crambo HD (Heavy Duty).
According to Komptech, the Crambo HD offers 10 percent more horsepower than the Crambo, an armored drum, armored teeth and a heavy-duty gear box and drum bearing. Komptech guarantees the Crambo HD for two years.
Komptech says the Crambo HD is just one example of how it listens to and acts on customer feedback. Doing that has led to what the company says are many product improvements throughout the years.
