The chipper SKORPION 160 SD is the best choice for people involved in community service activities and for road companies; its high chipping capacity (the maximum diameter of worked branches is 160 mm) and small dimensions allow convenient use of the machine in urban areas and on roadsides during seasonal logging.

The high efficiency of this machine is achieved by the use of disc cutting system and KOHLER Command PRO EFI ECH980 engine with power of 38 or 37 hp - a 2-cylinder, air-cooled petrol engine fitted with a mask. In order to maintain many hours of continuous operation, the chopper is equipped with a 40 liter fuel tank. The throat 285 mm wide and 180 mm high allows chopping branches, boughs and limbs (also leaves and needles), as well as round wood to diameter of 16 cm.

This model’s cutting system is made by a disc equipped with two cutting blades, co-working with two counter knives. The cutting knives life has been optimized by their double-sided sharpening, which allows them to be rotated by 180°, resulting in twice the length of their use. All the knives are made of appropriately selected tool steel and subjected to professional heat treatment. In addition, the chipper disc also fulfills the task of a fan and ejects the produced chips through the ejection tube, which can be positioned in any direction at a full 360° radius.
