The
Machinery Imports team held a large demonstration stand at APF Show 2018, with
Jensen woodchippers leading the charge complemented by the array of groundcare
machinery available from brands Ferris, Wright and Spider.
With
over 800m2 of stand space, the team were able to showcase a large range of
machines including the ever-popular Jensen A530 and A530L towed woodchippers,
with sub-750kg towing weights and 6-inch chipping capacity.
Representing
the range of PTO chippers were the A530XL and A540 models, with the A540 model
boasting a 190mm capacity and 18m3/h output for powerful chipping with only a
40hp requirement.
For
off-road, sloping or unstable terrain, Jensen presented the A540 Spider, a
tracked woodchipper offering superb stability with independently controlled
hydraulic tracks both vertically and horizontally, making it the most versatile
machine of its type in the market.
Jensen
are the only manufacturer of woodchippers in the industry to offer the option
of a turntable chassis for all their woodchippers between 8” and 12” capacity,
and to highlight this at the APF visitors to the stand could see an A540
turntable road-towable chipper.
The 270° turning ability offers the perfect
solution for anybody working alongside highways and paths where safety is
paramount and space is limited, enabling the users to turn the woodchipper to
face an alternative, safe direction.
As
well as static displays of the models on offer, the Jensen team were able to
practically demonstrate the power and versatility of the range including the
huge A231 model, the second largest disc chipper in the Jensen line-up and the
largest feed roller aperture available of any brand in the market.
With a 310 x
240mm aperture, 30m2/h chipping capacity and 75hp engine the A231 is truly one
of the most powerful and robust chippers on offer today.
Complementing
the Jensen line up at the APF Exhibition were a range of Ferris, Wright and
Spider mowers, including the Wright Stander I and Sport I models – the original
zero-turn stander mowers in the industry, and Spider Mini, ILD01 and ILD02
remote-controlled, robotic slope mowers.
