SIMPLE CUT chopper<br />

The SIMPLE CUT chopper is based on the patented technique<br />

of the Scalper © macerators. Indeed, any <strong>foreign</strong> body in the slurry<br />

is chopped by 2 self-sharpening circular blades turning against a<br />

contra-rotating blade fitted with conical openings.<br />

In this way, slurry is homogeneously distributed in the rear spreading<br />

tool while making sure that the possible <strong>foreign</strong> bodies do<br />

not prevent the macerator from working properly. The stones<br />

and other <strong>foreign</strong> bodies are collected in a trap that is easy to<br />

reach and has to be emptied regularly. This operation is made<br />

easier by a quick opening <strong>system</strong>.<br />

The X-Trem vehicles have a vertical chopper while the Cobra,<br />

Quadra and Euroliner have a chopper in horizontal position.<br />

Turbo-filler<br />

The ‘‘Turbo’’ effect makes it possible to pump higher capacities, faster and without overloading the pump.<br />

Thanks to the turbo-filler, it is possible to better fill the slurry spreaders fitted with a vacuum pump and<br />

to shorten the filling time.<br />

The slurry is not only sucked by the vacuum pump, it is also ‘‘pushed’’ in the tank. The density of the<br />

sucked up slurry is higher. Indeed, it is possible to pump with a lower vacuum level thanks to the turbine.<br />

As a result, the slurry will expand to a lesser extent - natural property of slurry - and create less foam.<br />

The sucked up volume will consequently be closer to the volume at rest.<br />

As the pump must create a lower depression, a higher flow may be created to fill the tank (<strong>significantly</strong><br />

shorter filling time).<br />
