Features
The chipper TB 50 has a cutting drum formed by two high-strength blades, reversible and to which is added a counterblade also in tempered steel. Depending on the processed product, it is ejected from the chipper outlet at a height of 142 cm and 2/3 meters away, thus facilitating the discharge into bins or special containers. Powered by a Honda PETROL ENGINE or alternatively Briggs&Stratton with belt transmission, the ignition is tear-off but is facilitated by the centrifugal pulley as standard mounted on the crankshaft. Produced in the Peruzzo plants, it is a high-performance machine with reduced dimensions: thanks to the large loading hopper it also works easily on olive and pine branches, as well as on voluminous foliage.

FAQ / FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a wood chipper used for?
A chipper is a machine used to reduce branches, logs and pruning waste into small pieces called wood chips. Wood chips can have several applications, including:
Mulching: Wood chips can be used as mulch in gardening and agriculture. It helps conserve soil moisture, reduce weed growth and improve soil structure.
Composting: Shredded pieces of wood can be added to compost piles to improve aeration and speed up the decomposition process.
Biomass: Wood chips can be used as a renewable energy source. It is burned in biomass power plants to produce heat and electricity.
Litter Material: In agriculture, wood chips can be used as bedding for animals, helping to keep spaces clean and absorbing moisture.
Wood Products: In some cases, wood chips can be used as raw material for the production of compressed wood products, such as particle board.
Beautification: Wood chips can be used to beautify gardens and parks, creating pathways or decorative areas.
How does a branch shredder work?
A branch shredder is a device designed to reduce branches, leaves and other plant debris into small pieces or chips. The basic operation of a branch shredder can be divided into several main stages and components. Here is a detailed description of its operation:
Material Insertion: Operators insert branches, leaves, and other plant debris into the feeder.
Movement to the Shredding Mechanism: Compression rollers (if present) grab the material and guide it to the blades or cutters. In models without rollers, gravity and manual pushing guide the material toward the shredding mechanism.
Shredding: The blades, knives, or hammers rotate at high speed, cutting or shattering the material into small pieces. The power of the motor determines the speed and effectiveness of the cutting.
Shredded Material Ejection: The shredded pieces are ejected through the exhaust. In models with collection bins, the shredded material is deposited in a bag or integrated container.
In summary, a branch shredder works through a system of motor-driven blades, rollers or hammers, which reduce plant material into smaller pieces, facilitating disposal or composting.
How many types of bio-shredders are there?
There are different types of bioshredders, each suited to specific needs:
Electric: Ideal for small gardens and home uses, they are quiet and easy to use, but have limited shredding capacity compared to motor-driven models.
Petrol-powered: More powerful and suitable for large gardens or professional use, they can handle larger branches and larger amounts of material.
With blades or hammers: Some bioshredders use blades to cut branches, while others use hammers to break up material. Blade models are generally better suited for thin branches and leaves, while hammer models can handle harder, fibrous materials.
What is the difference between a bio-shredder and a chipper?
A bio-shredder is designed to shred plant material such as leaves, small branches, grass, and garden waste. Its main purpose is to reduce the volume of green waste, making it easier to compost or dispose of. It uses rotary blades or knives to shred material into smaller pieces. It can have a knife system or a roller system, depending on the model.
II chipper, on the other hand, is designed to shred wood and branches into small pieces called “wood chips” or “chips.” It is often used for the production of mulch, biofuel, or to reduce the volume of wood waste. It is most suitable for dealing with medium and large branches, logs, and hardwood. It is not ideal for green or soft materials.
It uses blades, hammers or drums that reduce wood into smaller pieces. The result is uniformly sized wood chips.
What to do with bio-shredder waste?
Bioshredder waste can be used in a variety of useful ways to improve garden management and agriculture. Here are some options:
Composting: Shredded residues can be added to a compost bin to decompose them into compost an excellent organic soil conditioner that improves soil structure, increases fertility and promotes water retention.
Mulching: You can use shredded material as mulch to cover the soil around plants because it helps maintain soil moisture, reduces weed growth, protects plant roots from frost, and improves soil quality as it decomposes.
Soil enrichment: Mix shredded waste directly into the soil. Adding organic material to the soil improves its structure, aeration and water-holding capacity.
Raised beds: Use shredded material as the bottom layer in raised beds. This creates a base that will decompose over time, enriching the soil and improving drainage.
Erosion barriers: Uses waste to stabilize slopes and prevent soil erosion. Helps hold soil in place and reduce water runoff.
Biomass fuel: In some cases, shredded waste can be used as fuel for biomass stoves as a renewable energy source.
What can be put into the bioshredder?
Various types of plant materials can be put into the bioshredder, as long as they are appropriate for the specific model of bioshredder being used. Here is a list of commonly accepted materials:
– Branches of trees and shrubs, usually with a diameter specified by the bioshredder manufacturer.
– Fallen leaves from trees and shrubs, which can be shredded to create compost or mulch.
– Fresh or dry grass clippings cut from the lawn.Fresh grass may tend to compact, so it is advisable to mix it with drier materials.
– Stems of herbaceous and horticultural plants, such as those of tomatoes, corn and other crops.
– Vine shoots
– Bark or pieces detached from trees.
What should not be shredded?
Proper use of the bioshredder involves placing suitable plant materials, following the manufacturer’s directions and taking precautions to avoid machine damage and safety issues.
Here is a list of materials you should avoid:
– Very hard and very thick woody materials, such as those from mature oak or walnut trees that can damage the blades of the bioshredder.
– Very fibrous plant materials, such as bamboo or some tropical plants that can clog the bioshredder.
– Diseased or pest-infested plants. It is best to burn or dispose of these materials separately to prevent the spread of pathogens or pests.
– Poisonous or irritating plants such as poison ivy that can be hazardous to health during shredding.
– Non-plant materials such as plastic, metal, glass, textiles, and other non-organic materials that can damage the bioshredder and are not compostable.
– Wet or rotten or advanced decaying grass that can clog the bioshredder and create bad odors.
