Crawler Compost Turner

Crawler Compost Windrow Turner Overview

The crawler compost windrow turner is a highly efficient mechanical device for composting. It is mainly composed of a caterpillar walking device, a turner component, a transmission system, etc. The caterpillar-type walking device provides good mobility and stability, enabling it to adapt to a variety of complex terrains and different composting sites, easily crossing compost heaps and moving with flexibility.

Advantages and Features of Crawler Compost Windrow Turner

Advantages and Features

Excellent mobility

The crawler compost windrow turner can move freely in all kinds of difficult terrain conditions, easily navigate between manure piles, and quickly reach the work position.

Good ventilation

The powerful turning action loosens the compost heap and makes it porous, allowing air to enter more easily. An adequate supply of oxygen is essential for aerobic composting.

Reliable and durable

The crawler compost windrow turner key components, such as the crawler and frame, are made of high-strength materials and can withstand heavy loads over the long term.

Efficient turning ability

The toothed rake on this tumbler is mounted on a shaft that rotates at high speed, reaching deep into the base of the pile and lifting and dispersing the material vigorously.

Flexible depth adjustment

The operator can precisely adjust the turning depth according to factors such as the actual height of the manure pile, material density and fermentation stage.

Low maintenance costs

The crawler compost windrow turner is designed for easy maintenance, and most parts are common standard parts, so maintenance and repair costs are low.

Working Principle of Crawler Compost Windrow Turner

Working Principle

The crawler compost turner is powered by a diesel engine. Part of the power drives the compost turning drum to rotate through the reduction belt pulley, and the other part of the power controls the lifting and lowering of the compost turning drum through the hydraulic circuit system composed of a hydraulic pump. The equipment rides on the compost, and the compost turning drum rotates. Its spiral belt and teeth mix the materials evenly and fully contact them with the air, accelerating the aerobic fermentation of microorganisms.

Crawler Compost Windrow Turner Application Scenarios

Application Scenarios

Agricultural cultivation

The crawler compost windrow turner forms straw into piles and adds the right amount of livestock manure to produce high-quality organic fertiliser that nourishes the soil and improves its fertility.

Livestock farming

Livestock farms produce large amounts of manure every day, which is collected in heaps and turned over to ferment into fertiliser. This is the focus of the treatment of the crawler compost windrow turner.

Urban landscape management

Pruning the urban landscape produces a large amount of garden waste, such as branches and leaves. This waste can be converted into organic fertiliser using a crawler compost windrow turner.

Organic fertiliser manufacture

Organic waste collected by organic fertiliser production enterprises, including kitchen waste, agricultural waste, etc. Large-scale composting requires the use of a crawler compost windrow turner.

Flower growing base

Pruned branches, fallen flowers and leaves, as well as raw materials such as peat soil, are turned over in a composter to fully ferment and produce nutrient-rich fertilizer.

Disposal of domestic waste

Most domestic waste is organic waste such as leftover food and fruit peels. This waste can be collected centrally and processed in a composting plant using a crawler compost windrow turner.

Crawler Compost Windrow Turner Buying Guide

Buying Guide

Processing capacity matching

Determine the processing capacity of the crawler-type manure turner according to actual needs. Avoid idle equipment and wasted funds due to excessive processing capacity.

Assessment of the turning effect

Carefully inspect the tumbling effect of the drum. Check the design and quality of the tumbling knives or teeth rakes. A high-quality machine should be able to thoroughly stir, crush and mix.

Track quality and performance

Check that the track material is sturdy and durable, with good wear resistance and tensile strength, to ensure it will not be damaged during long-term use and on rough terrain.

Reliability of the power system

The power system is at the heart of the normal operation of the crawler compost windrow turner. Find out about the power source used the brand, power and performance parameters.

Overall equipment quality

A comprehensive inspection of the overall quality of the equipment, including the firmness of the body structure, the quality of the welding, the machining accuracy of the parts, etc.

After-sales service guarantee

Find out about the manufacturer’s after-sales service system, including the warranty period, service response speed, and whether there is an adequate supply of spare parts.

Frequently Asked Questions.

Specially designed knives or teeth rakes can penetrate deep into the compost heap during rotation, lifting the material from the bottom and throwing it to the side or back, effectively breaking up lumps and achieving thorough mixing and turning of the material.

The key components of the tracked compost turner, such as the tracks, tines and shafts, are made of high-quality, wear-resistant materials. Under normal use and with regular maintenance, these components can usually be used for 8-10 years or even longer. 

Our tracked trolleys are specially designed for the composting environment. They are made of a high-strength rubber compound and a metal skeleton, and have good wear resistance, flexibility and load-bearing capacity. They are not easily damaged under normal use and proper maintenance.

Routine maintenance mainly includes regular checks of the tension of the conveyor belt, cleaning the turning knives, checking the lubrication system and tightening screws. A detailed maintenance manual will be provided when the machine is delivered.

Our appliances are designed to be energy-efficient, with low energy consumption and reasonable maintenance costs. At the same time, the high degree of automation reduces manual operation and labour costs. In the long run, they offer a high price-performance ratio.
