Powered by a Caterpillar C27 engine at 1,050 hp, the 5710C track grinder provides the highest power to weight ratio of any Peterson model to date. Units weigh 82,330 pounds (37,331 kg), are designed for mobility, and use a feed opening of 60 by 44 inches. (1,524 by 1,118 mm) combined with a high-lift feed roll.
Some additional key features on the 5710C include: Peterson’s new generation of Impact Release System; a new generation of controls; a square-shaft rotor and large grate area; a quick-change multiple grate system; Impact Cushion System Urethane cushions; as well as shear pins above the cushion and a sensing circuit that stop the engine to help protect the shaft from damage in the event of a severe impact.
For increased ability to handle oversize material, Peterson’s new Spiral Stump Splitter works by mounting directly onto the grinder, and splits large feed material while an operator loads. One operator is required for loader, grinder and splitter, and the splitter can be rotated into travel position.
