Large-Span Wheeled Compost Turners for Large-Scale Fermentation

As a Chinese foreign trade enterprise specialising in fertiliser equipment, our wheeled compost turners are engineered around the core principles of ‘wide-span operation, high-output capacity, and efficient decomposition’. Specifically designed for large-scale organic waste treatment and organic fertiliser fermentation, they have been exported to over 40 countries and regions across Southeast Asia, Europe, and Africa. These machines empower global large-scale organic fertiliser plants, farms, and municipal environmental projects to overcome the challenges of ‘large fermentation piles, inefficient turning, and prolonged maturation cycles,’ delivering ‘Chinese-engineered’ solutions for scaled organic fertiliser production.

Core equipment advantages centre on ‘wide span’ and ‘high output’:
– Operating spans from 4 to 12 metres accommodate fermentation troughs or open-air piles of varying widths, eliminating frequent repositioning and significantly reducing operational blind spots; Turning depth reaches 1.2-2 metres, with single-unit hourly throughput of 200-800 tonnes and maximum daily capacity of 19,200 tonnes. This represents a 50% efficiency gain over traditional tracked turners, effortlessly handling large-scale fermentation of organic materials including livestock manure, crop straw, and municipal kitchen waste. Through multiple sets of hydraulically driven high-strength turning tines, the equipment achieves integrated ‘turning-crushing-oxygenation’ of raw materials. This stabilises fermentation temperatures between 55-65°C, reducing the maturation cycle from 30-40 days in traditional composting to 15-20 days. Pathogen elimination exceeds 98%, effectively preventing localised anaerobic putrefaction within the pile.

​
For large-scale production scenarios, the equipment features specialised optimisations: its heavy-duty steel frame, paired with wear-resistant anti-slip tyres, enables stable operation in open-air fermentation fields and alongside muddy piles, adapting to Southeast Asia’s humid monsoon conditions and Africa’s arid, dusty environments. The turning tines, crafted from high-manganese steel, offer exceptional wear resistance with a service life exceeding 5,000 hours. An intelligent electronic control system supports cruise control and automatic obstacle avoidance. Pre-set turning paths and frequencies via bilingual (Chinese/English) touchscreen panels reduce manual labour intensity. Optional exhaust gas collection units achieve over 90% odour removal, complying with EU EN 16924 organic fermentation environmental standards for regions with stringent eco-regulations.

Operational maintenance is straightforward, with remote fermentation monitoring enabling real-time adjustment of turning parameters. Routine maintenance involves periodic hydraulic system checks and clearing debris from turning tines. Key components like hydraulic pumps and motors utilise internationally renowned brands, ensuring low failure rates. Modular upgrades support adding feed conveyor belts and moisture sensors to enhance automation levels. Installation and commissioning take 5-7 days before large-scale operation.

Currently, our equipment processes 1,000 tonnes of cattle manure daily at a major Brazilian farm, yielding 20,000 tonnes of premium organic fertiliser monthly. In Germany, municipal projects utilise it for kitchen waste treatment, elevating resource recovery rates to 95%. Selecting our wheel-type compost turners efficiently resolves large-scale organic waste treatment challenges, laying the foundation for scaled organic fertiliser production. We stand as your reliable partner in expanding the global fertiliser equipment market. Future customisation options include tailored working spans according to client pile dimensions, meeting bespoke production requirements.
