2025 Vermeer® Horizontal Grinders HG6000TX
HG6000TX highlights- Productivity meets jobsite mobility
- Robust build quality for confident longevity
- Maintenance-friendly design optimizes serviceability
- Equipped with Vermeer innovations to help protect your investment and optimize efficiency
Features may include:
Productive and powerful- The Series III duplex drum is built off the proven cutting performance of previous Vermeer duplex drum designs and makes maintenance more convenient with enhancements such as an independently secured wedge system and enhanced drum balancing.
- Maximize feeding capability with machine sidewalls that provide optimal flow of material and minimize operator interaction.
- The feed roller planetary is fully enclosed for protection from debris and offers a tighter clearance between the feed roller and mill housing, helping reduce material blockage and drag on the feed roller circuit.
- The track-driven grinder offers onsite mobility with a remote control for easy maneuverability.
- Maximize productivity thanks to the exclusive Vermeer SmartGrind system, which automatically controls grinding speed based on engine rpm levels.
- Machine damage caused by metal contaminants entering the hammermill can be costly. The Vermeer Damage Defense system helps protect your machine by detecting certain metal contaminants.
- An industry-leading, full-function, wireless remote control lets you adjust machine settings from the cab as conditions change, including control of the infeed settings, engine droop, conveyor height and more.
- Top-loading screens are designed to give operators easy access.
- Reduce the quantity and distance of thrown material debris with the Thrown Object Deflector (TOD), strategically placed to reduce interference when loading over-length material.
- VermeerOne™ Platform isn’t just a tool or platform. It’s an experience — one designed to simplify equipment management, empower users with real time data to make smarter decisions, and help maximize productivity and profitability.
