Information

2025 Vermeer® Horizontal Grinders HG4000E

HG4000E highlights
  • Bring efficiency to your stationary grinding operation
  • Drum and screen options provide efficient processing and product sizing
  • A wide infeed design makes over-the-side loading easy and efficient
  • Reduce the quantity and distance of thrown debris

Features may include:

Efficient processing
  • Maximize loading speed and productivity using the patented SmartGrind system and hydraulic feed roller down pressure. Open-ended, wide infeed tables are designed to make over-the-side loading easy and efficient.
  • A 60-in (152.4-cm) wide infeed table with flared sidewalls can accommodate a large volume of material.
  • The HG4000E has a 500-hp (373-kW) WEG® totally-enclosed, fan-cooling electric motor for the mill, a 50-hp (37.3-kW) motor for the hydraulic pump, and a 2-hp (1.5-kW) motor for hydraulic cooling.
Flexible configurations
  • For enhanced flexibility within a single machine, a dedicated chip drum, adjustable for product size ranging from .125 in - 1 in (.3 cm - 2.5 cm), is available.
  • Improve cutting performance using the patented Series II duplex drum system designed with reversible hammers and tips to help reduce daily maintenance and nearly double wear life.
  • Hinged, dual screens boost processing efficiency and offer flexibility in end product sizing.
Intelligent operation
  • The intelligent feed system monitors the machine's engine speed, and holds the engine at an optimal level. This allows you to spend more time feeding and less time adjusting settings.
  • 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.
Safety
  • 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.
