The Morbark 6600 is a horizontal grinder — sometimes referred to as a tub grinder or wood hog — a heavy-duty machine designed to reduce bulk wood waste, land-clearing debris, stumps, and organic material into chips, mulch, or biomass fuel. Morbark is a well-established American manufacturer with decades of experience producing industrial grinding, chipping, and recycling equipment for forestry, land clearing, municipal, and biomass industries.
This 2003 machine has accumulated 18,000 hours of service under a single owner who, according to the seller, kept it on a consistent maintenance programme throughout its working life. It is described as working today, offering a buyer the confidence of a unit that has not sat idle.
Power is provided by a Caterpillar 3412 diesel engine rated at 1,050 horsepower, a large-displacement, multi-cylinder powerplant well suited to the sustained, high-torque demands of industrial grinding operations. Drive engagement is handled by a Twin Disc clutch, a recognised brand of heavy-duty power transmission equipment commonly specified on machines of this class to manage the significant shock loads generated during the grinding cycle.
The discharge conveyor is reported to be in very good condition, which is a notable detail given that conveyor systems on high-hour grinders are frequently subject to wear and costly refurbishment.
This used Morbark 6600 horizontal grinder is located in Chico, California, USA, and is offered at $249,000 FOB Chico, CA.
