Warren & Baerg Introduces Horizontal Grinder with Feed Roller Assembly

Model G278-30-400 bale grinder handles round, square and mid-size bales.


The Model G278-30-400 Grinder with feed roller assembly is the largest and the latest generation of Warren & Baerg’s high production, virtually dust-free round bale grinders. While the G278-30-400 Grinder model is designed specifically for round bales, it also handles square and mid-size bales. The company says it can be used in biomass grinding applications.

With the new feed roller assembly system, customers can effectively process round bales in excess of 20 tons per hour, in a much cleaner environment than the traditional tub grinder, according to the company. The feed roller assembly eliminates material slugs, eliminating amp draw spikes, which increase production output through better use of power, the company adds.

Many of the company’s new customers are switching from a tub grinder to the Horizontal Grinding Systems to reduce or eliminate their dust problems, as well as reduce the 1 percent to 6 percent material losses, the company says. The grinder can be either a high-volume pre-grinder or a one-step single grinder system.

The Warren & Baerg Grinding Systems consists of a bale feed conveyor with hood, feed roller assembly, grinder, screens and either an air discharge chute or takeaway conveyor system, depending on customer specific needs and grind size. The Bale Feed Systems can also be semi-automatic to fit application needs. The grinder is electrically powered with two 200 horsepower motors and lower horsepower motors on the conveyors. On lower tonnage applications, the grinder can be sized with lower horsepower motors.
