This Peterson Pacific 5710D is a used horizontal grinder — sometimes referred to as a tub grinder's tracked counterpart, or more broadly as a wood hog — a type of heavy-duty industrial machine designed to reduce large volumes of wood waste, green waste, land-clearing debris, and similar organic material into uniform chips, mulch, or fuel. Peterson Pacific is a well-established American manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for building high-production grinding and chipping equipment used across the forestry, land clearing, biomass, and waste-processing industries.
Power is provided by a 1,050-horsepower Cat C27 Tier 2 engine, delivering the high output necessary for demanding, continuous grinding operations. The machine rides on triple-grouser 600mm tracks, giving it the undercarriage strength and ground-bearing capability suited to rough, uneven terrain typical of land-clearing and logging sites.
The grate configuration is a notable feature of this listing. Three 6-inch grates are included, all described as new, allowing the operator to produce a specific, consistent output size. Additionally, a new set of 8-inch grates is included with the number-one position, providing flexibility to switch to a coarser output when the application demands it. Having new grates in both sizes represents meaningful ready-to-work value.
Safety is addressed through an installed fire suppression system, an important practical consideration on a machine that generates significant heat and processes combustible organic material at high throughput. An on-board air compressor is also included as part of the package.
This 2015 Peterson Pacific 5710D is located in Virginia, USA, and is offered at $699,500.
