Peterson of Eugene, Ore., has introduced the model 6710B Track Mounted Horizontal Grinder—the newest addition to Peterson’s line of horizontal grinders.
Designed for the biggest jobs, the machine is powered by a 1,000-hp Caterpillar 3412E diesel engine. It has a feed opening of 50 by 66 inches and features Peterson’s Adaptive Control System II, which controls all components of the feed system to optimize output. According to a press release from Peterson, this third generation system monitors the grinding load and varies the speed of the feed system to keep the engine working at the top of its power curve. It automatically accelerates the feed system when the engine load is light, slows when the load is high and reverses engine speed drops.
The 6710B also has Peterson’s Impact Release System, which minimizes the damage from contaminants in the feed material. The anvil and first grate open on a severe impact, allowing the contaminant to be ejected, and then re-latch to permit continuous grinding.
