The Jenz BA 615 completes the companies shredder range by providing for the smaller end of the market Only 11.5 t deadweight and a hard-hitting 300 hp mean two things are sure: mobility and power Hans Heinrich Hermeier, Jenz The BA 615 is the first Jenz biomass processor to be fitted with the new easy2 controller “We have successfully been using the easy2 in our chippers, and this is the first time we have fitted them to a shredder,” stated Hermeier. “Even if the machine controller is not quite as crucial for this type of machine as for mobile woodchippers, it does of course have positive effects for the machine operator.” These include, among others, improved haptics on the new easy2TOUCH 10.4 in touch display, and an additional six buttons with which the basic functions can be operated without using the display. Operation is therefore further simplified, and is also possible when wearing gloves. The risk of incorrect operation is therefore also reduced. The new biomass processor is currently available on a chassis and will also be available on caterpillar tracks in the future. International Forest Industries | AUGUST / SEPTEMBER 2018 33
