What is the difference between a tree branch crusher and a wood crusher

There are significant differences in function and application between a pruning machine and a pulverizer. The following is a detailed comparison between the two:

Working principle

• Pruning machine: mainly composed of feeding port, cutting tool, engine, discharge port and other parts. Its working principle is to feed garden waste such as branches and leaves into the inlet, and chop them into small particles through high-speed rotating cutting tools. These small particles can be reused as coverings, composting materials, or biomass fuels.
• Crusher: During production operation, the motor drives the spindle and turbine to rotate at high speed (with a maximum speed of 700r/min). The grinding blocks on the turbine and screen ring form a crushing and grinding pair, with a compact structure. When the material enters the machine cavity from the feeding hopper, it rubs tightly and strongly impacts the inner edge of the turbine blades in the rotating airflow, and grinds again in the gap between the blades and the grinding block.

purpose

• Branch shredder: mainly used for processing garden waste, such as tree branches, leaves, etc. Its cutting tools are usually made of high-strength alloy steel, which has the characteristics of sharpness and durability. The engine can be a gasoline engine, diesel engine, or electric motor, providing power for the rotation of the cutting tool.
• Crusher: widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, building materials, medicine, food and other industries, mainly used to crush various materials into the required size. For example, in traditional Chinese medicine factories, shops, and hospitals, crushers can be used to crush Chinese medicinal materials; In the processing of agricultural and sideline products, crushers can be used to process materials such as bran and rice bran.

Structural characteristics

• Pruning machine: usually has smaller feed and discharge ports to meet the processing needs of garden waste such as branches and leaves. Its tool design emphasizes sharpness and durability to ensure efficient cutting.
• Crusher: With diverse structures, the design of its feed inlet, screen, cutting tools, and other components may vary depending on the type of material being crushed. For example, crushers used for crushing traditional Chinese medicinal materials typically have smaller feed ports and finer mesh screens to ensure that the crushed material meets quality requirements.

performance differences

• Branch shredder: It usually has low energy consumption and high processing efficiency, and can quickly chop a large amount of garden waste such as branches and leaves into small particles. Meanwhile, due to its advanced engine and tool design, it can reduce energy consumption while ensuring efficient operation.
• Crusher: Performance varies depending on model and purpose. Some crushers have high output and fine crushing effect, suitable for large-scale production and processing; Some small crushers place more emphasis on portability and ease of use, making them suitable for small processing sites or personal use.
