Peterson Pacific Corp., Eugene, Oregon, debuts the all-new Peterson 4710D horizontal grinder at the 2017 ConExpo-Con/Agg show in Las Vegas from March 7 to 11.
The 4710D is designed for high-volume producers with very demanding end-product specifications. The 4710D is powered by a Tier IV Caterpillar C18 engine rated at 755 horsepower. A Tier II, 765 horsepower engine is also available.
“The mid-size 4710D completes the range of four D models of Peterson horizontal grinders with Tier IV engines options and industry leading features and customer benefits. The 47 series has been Peterson’s most popular model since it was first introduced in 2004. The high performance and light footprint under 37,000 metric tons, make the 4710D very popular with demanding pipeline land clearing contractors and medium size mulch and composting operations” says Larry Cumming, Peterson’s president.
With 18 inches of ground clearance, this model is particularly suited for land clearing operations or other applications where mobility and frequent moving is desired.
Peterson’s three-stage grinding process with an up-turning rotor and large grate area enables the 4710D to produce materials to exact specifications. Quick-change multiple grate system is designed to customize grate configurations to produce a variety of finished materials. Grates are removed through an access door on the side wall.
The 4710D features Peterson’s Adaptive Control System, which controls all components of the feed system. This 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 if the engine speed drops. It even monitors the engine temperature and varies the cooling fan speed to minimize power usage and reduce fuel consumption.
The Peterson 4710D horizontal grinder is also Peterson+ enabled—a new remote monitoring solution providing machine owners access to real-time and historical data of their machine’s performance and location.
