Information

2025 Vermeer® Horizontal Grinders HG6000E

HG6000E 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
  • The HG6000E has two electric motors delivering 600 hp (447 kW) to the mill, a 60-hp (44.7-kW) motor for the hydraulic pump, and a 2-hp (1.5-kW) motor for hydraulic cooling.
  • 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.
Flexible configurations
  • For enhanced flexibility with the HG6000E, a dedicated chip drum — adjustable for product size ranging from .125 in to 1.5 in (3.2 mm to 38.1 mm) — is available.
  • Improve cutting performance using the patented Series II duplex drum system with reversible hammers and cutter blocks that simplify maintenance and nearly double wear life.
  • Dual screens are designed to maximize the screen area surrounding the drum.
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.
