Steve Morris Logging Biomass Operation

Grinding of redwood scraps from an old growth fencing material plant. The grinder is a NEW 2010 Peterson Pacific 5710C Track grinder w/ a C27 1050 HP CAT. It is fed with a Komatsu LC300HD-6 w/ an attached Danzco Slash Cutting Grapple. The final product is used for resale to local power plants for electric cogeneration. The grinder is hands down the most productive in its industry and the current operation in the video does not justify its full capabilities. The Danzco grapple is not being used in its optimal setting either so its full capabilities are not shown.

    That grinder is producing really well. Someone has got the setup dialed in on it.

    That is the most gawdawful awkward looking grapple I’ve ever seen! I bet Mr. Slate down at the quarry is gonna be looking for that.

    It was an experimental brush head that had two hot saws on both ends. It was the only machine available at the time at that location. The normal machine is a log loader with a small brush grapple on it. Other videos I have posted show that. P.S. the brush head experiment didn't work.

    Could you tell what the big grapple is about. I dont see what advantage it gives vs a simple brush or orange peel. I am not an operator just A big fan of machinery. I assume Humbolt Co w the ex Wayne Bare T600 in the background?

    This machine is really hungry but the feeder is not compatible you will be needing faster feeder to achieve more production.

    awsome vid but what the hell is with that ugly head on that loader? Why not just a regular grabber like on a log loader? just curious

    Loved the machinery, thumbs down for the camera work, the focus kept sliding to the side so most or all of the action was just off screen.
