The Tomahawk C12 ‘Calibrator’
processes materials with a
moisture content up to 20% at up
to 11 tons/hr. The target market is
large scale farms, and contractors
working with a number of clients
who need to achieve consistently
short ‘calibrated’ material for their
business. The principal application
will be straw processing for
homogenous incorporation into
TMR rations.
Complimentary applications are
also found in bedding livestock
and the biomass/biogas sectors.
At its heart the Tomahawk C12
has a rotor running at 2000rpm,
equipped with 56 ‘ARMATECH
PLUS®’ coated hammers running
on hardened bushes for extended
service intervals, which can mill
material to a specific length,
between 20mm and 100mm.
Material length is determined by
a pair of quick-change reversible
screens installed beneath the
rotor. Material is discharged via
conveyor to a bunker or trailer with
a maximum height of 4.2m.
The C12 ‘Calibrator’
incorporates an automatic power
loading system controlled from the
loading handler, utilising the latest
Bluetooth® technology found on
all Tomahawk models, the
automatic system prevents
overloading the tractor whilst
optimising output.
To comply with international
regulations, the C12 has been
designed to meet forthcoming
braking legislation and is
homologated to run at 40km/hr,
with a pneumatic/hydraulic braking
combination as standard.
