PULL-TYPE COMPOST TURNER WITH ELEVATING FACE
Vermeer’s first pull-type CT670 compost turner features elevating face technology, which uses a combination of paddles and teeth that lift and tumble the compost material up the face of the compost turner and discharge the material at the rear of the machine. The process does not degrade compost material and introduces more oxygen into the compost pile, helping to decrease cycle times.
The CT670 model can process up to 2,000 cubic yards per hour and handles compost piles up to 12 feet wide and six feet high in two passes. The unit is fully self-contained, requiring no PTO or hydraulic hook-ups, and can be pulled with a low horsepower tractor or wheel loader. The CT670 uses a robust 48-hp four-cylinder Cummins Tier 3 naturally-aspirated diesel engine, and can travel at speeds up to 25 mph.
