Yes it is! That's the 1050 hp model but the 1200 hp is even more insane. I will try and get another video when he runs that unit and ask him to save some monster logs to grind that day. It's a sight to see
No sir, that machine is called a stacker. The purpose is to stockpile the material in a cost effective way. If you didn't use one, it'd take maybe an hour or so before the material backs up to the main conveyor and you'd have to shut down. With that stacker, you may be able to stockpile 800 yards in one spot without moving your grinder. It's a lot cheaper to run one of those than to have a guy on a loader or excavator moving the material away as well. Some clever operations add a cross belt magnet to the stacker. There's no way to avoid hitting metal during the first grind but for the metal that gets through, the cross belt magnet will also pull the metal out so on the next pass, you're not hitting the same metal again.
Depends. If it's eating a massive log and having to back off regularly, 52 gallons an hour. If you are easy on it, as little as 10. I'd use 45 gallons an hour as a baseline
That thing is a beast!!!

Is the green coloured machine on the left of the screen, grinding the output of the white machine, into even smaller pieces?

Yesss bread in the house
What is the fuel consumption of this machine ?

@@grindersandheavyiron1741 ok. What is the production capacity ?
