The 48” (121.92 cm) wide by 30’ (9.14 m) long stacking conveyor allows the operator to load material into a truck or onto an existing pile. Additionally, the stacking conveyor swings 40 degrees from side-to-side. An optional magnetic roller and aluminum chute remove ferrous metal from the finished product.
Command Console with Optional Remote Control
The 8564 command console features master engine controls, gauges, and shutoff. Also included on the command console are electric over hydraulic controls for the clutch, governor, and stacking conveyor. The optional 19-function remote control allows the operator to have complete control of the grinder while operating support equipment.
1050 HP C27 Caterpillar Electronic Diesel Engine with Enclosed Engine Compartment
The 8564 is powered by a 1050 HP (782.9 kW) C27 Caterpillar Electronic diesel engine that is backed up by Caterpillar’s superior service and reliability. The engine is housed in an enclosed engine compartment to protect the engine from debris and reduce noise levels.
Rotary Self-Cleaning Screen
In order to provide constant clean air to the engine and radiator, the 8564 employs a rotary self-cleaning screen. The rotary self-cleaning screen reduces maintenance, provides easy access to the radiator for servicing, and allows for flexible positioning of the grinder.
PT-Tech HPTO-15 Wet Clutch
The 8564 Horizontal Grinder is equipped with a self-adjusting PT-Tech HPTO-15 wet clutch. This clutch is microprocessor-controlled with a built-in torque limiter and brake that provide superior protection for the engine and drive line.
10 Groove Belt Drive
The 10 groove belt drive connects the wet clutch to the hammermill.
64” Hammermill
The 8564 Horizontal Grinder is equipped with a 64” (162.56 cm), 12,100 pound (5488.47 kg) hammermill with 24 hammers.
Self-Governing Floor Apron and Feed Roller
