RUGGED TRACK
DESIGN

The ultimate in ground covering performance and efficiency the BT310 track system offers a class leading 500mm of ground clearance to cover the most extreme terrain. Ideal for utility line clearing, vegetation management, maintenance contractors, waterway and rail clearing the BT310 shares the same legendary bones as the BT300 but in a tracked form which ensures efficiency and safety while reducing operating and maintenance costs.

DESIGNED IN AUSTRALIA

Built for the toughest conditions. This includes that all operating functions & switchgear are performed on the LHS of the machine, making it safer for the operators when using the chipper parked on the side of a road in Australia (or any RHD country).

POSI-ARC INFEED ARM PIVOT

Our design means that the large top infeed wheel aggressively climbs towards the in-coming timber, up and on top of the trunks and brush through the natural ‘positively inclined’ arc that our feed arm design provides. This makes for a far stronger feeding action than alternative infeed designs, allowing the Piranha to pull in difficult branches and twisty timber with ease. The hydraulic lift & crush also aides in feeding difficult timber sections into the chipping drum, and with a 380mmH X 500mmW opening large timber is easily processed.

POWERFUL
TRACKED
UNDERCARRIAGE

By utilizing a standard 5-tonne Excavator undercarriage, parts are readily available, and either steel or rubber track options can be matched to suit the conditions at hand

PIVOT DESIGN
INFEED ARM

Our ‘Posi-Arc’ infeed arm pivot design means that the large top infeed wheel aggressively climbs towards the incoming timber, up and on top of the trunks and brush through the natural ‘positively inclined’ arc that our feed arm design provides. This makes for a far stronger feeding action than alternative infeed designs, allowing the Piranha to pull in difficult branches and twisty timber with ease. The hydraulic lift & crush activates automatically and aids in feeding difficult timber sections into the chipping drum.

CHIPPER DRUM
ACCESS

The chipper drum access hood completely exposes the top of the drum when opened, making changing the knives very easy with no extension bits required for the torque wrench to reach down to the bolt head height.

BT300 Chipper Drum

STAGGERED
4-KNIFE CHIPPER DRUM

Designed in-house by the Piranha team with integrated high-velocity fans ensure a superior chipping action and very strong chip discharge. The replaceable bolt blocks ensure that the drum does not suffer integrity damage if the blades encounter foreign material fed into the machine and can be easily replaced if required.

STAGGERED 4-KNIFE CHIPPER DRUM

Designed in-house by the Piranha team with integrated high-velocity fans ensure a superior chipping action and very strong chip discharge. Being 650mm in diameter ensures that the chipping / cutting action is mostly done on the lower half of the circular arc resulting in less vibrations compared to units with smaller drum diameters in the 15”/380mm category. The replaceable bolt blocks ensure that the drum does not suffer integrity damage if the blades encounter foreign material fed into the machine and can be easily replaced if required.

POWERFUL ISUZU ENGINE

Powerful Isuzu engine uses a self-adjusting hydraulic auto-engaging clutch which ensures the easiest start-up & operating procedure of any hand-fed chipper unit currently available, with legendary reliability and power to make short work of even the toughest job. 

SUPERIOR CORROSION PROTECTION

All manufactured sheet-metal steel parts are individually primed and painted before assembly of the chipper unit for superior long-lasting corrosion protection.
