Your Guide to Biomass Grinding & Chipping

Material Infeed & Preparation

ChipMax Whole Tree Chipper Series
The ChipMax Series is purpose-built for material infeed and preparation in biomass chipping and grinding. Equipped with high-capacity rotors, quick-change configurations, and precise chip sizing technology, these chippers are designed to handle oversized wood, pre-processed mulch, and raw biomass. By breaking material down into uniform fuel-grade chips, they deliver consistent throughput and durability- ensuring the feedstock entering downstream grinders and processing equipment is clean, optimized, and ready for energy production.
Industrial Wood Chippers
7544 Flail Debarker and Disc Chipper
The CBI Magnum Force 7544 Flail Debarker and Disc Chipper combines aggressive material preparation with high-quality chip production in a single, compact unit. Engineered for biomass infeed, the integrated flail system delivers maximum debarking efficiency, ensuring cleaner feedstock, while the precision disc chipper produces uniform, fuel-grade chips ready for downstream grinding. With three standard flails (and an optional fourth for whole tree processing), a shorter overall length compared to the traditional 604/754 combo, and a powerful CAT C-32; 1,200 HP engine, the 7544 offers unmatched durability, efficiency, and production in biomass feed preparation.

Primary Reduction

Magnum Force 6800CT Horizontal Grinder
The CBI 6800CT Horizontal Grinder is purpose-built for biomass primary reduction, with engine options up to 1,125 HP CAT C32 and a production capacity of up to 200 tons per hour. Designed for maximum reliability and high-volume throughput, it processes whole trees, stumps, and oversized biomass with exceptional speed and productivity, grinding material as fast as a 30" chipper but with less prep work and lower maintenance requirements.
Horizontal Grinders
Magnum Force 6400CT Horizontal Grinder
The CBI 6400CT Horizontal Grinder delivers powerful flexibility for biomass processing, with engine options up to 1,200 HP CAT C32. Its swappable rotor and screen system allows operators to quickly shift from grinding whole trees and clean biomass to handling contaminated wood waste and construction debris, making it a highly adaptable solution for diverse fuel preparation applications.
Horizontal Grinders
Magnum Force 5900T Horizontal Grinder
The CBI 5900T Horizontal Grinder is built for biomass primary reduction, powered by a 755 HP CAT C18 engine and equipped with a 60-inch infeed rotor. With a production capacity of up to 150 tons per hour, it efficiently processes whole trees, stumps, and biomass feedstock. An integrated Metal Detection System safeguards the machine and ensures smooth, reliable operation, making it a dependable choice for high-volume biomass fuel preparation.
Horizontal Grinders
Magnum Force 5800T Horizontal Grinder
The CBI 5800BT Horizontal Grinder delivers up to 1,000 HP in a compact, track-mounted design, making it highly mobile and efficient in tight or restricted biomass sites. With a production capacity of up to 180 tons per hour, it provides powerful and reliable performance for processing whole trees, brush, and other feedstock into fuel-ready biomass material.

Stockpiling Conveyors

HLF75 Stacker Conveyor Series
The CBI HLF75 series (High Level, Organics, and Orbital) provides efficient infeed solutions for biomass operations. With a 48" belt and high-capacity hopper, they handle bulk loads directly from loaders, ensuring steady, controlled feeding into grinders and chippers. The Organics model adds an auger to manage fibrous biomass, while the Orbital version offers a rotating undercarriage for flexible discharge positioning. Together, the series maximizes throughput, reduces double-handling, and keeps biomass sites running efficiently.
Stacker Conveyors
TC80 Organics Stacker Conveyor
The CBI TC80 Conveyor is a mobile, track-mounted stacking solution designed to streamline biomass and organics operations. With a maximum stockpile height of over 32 feet and the ability to handle up to 600 tons per hour, it efficiently moves processed material such as wood chips, mulch, and compost. Its compact transport design and rapid setup make it a versatile choice for boosting throughput, reducing loader use, and ensuring a steady flow of fuel-ready biomass material.
Stacker Conveyors
TC60R Radial Stacker Conveyor
The CBI TC60R Tracked Radial Conveyor is designed for efficient biomass stockpiling and material handling. Equipped with a 36" belt, it can move up to 500 tons per hour and reach a maximum discharge height of 27'8", creating circular stockpiles of up to 5,982 yd³. Its tracked mobility and low feed-in height make it ideal for managing wood chips, mulch, and other biomass feedstock across compact or challenging sites.
Stacker Conveyors
TC50 Organics Mobile Stacker Conveyor
The CBI TC50 Organics Mobile Stacker Conveyor is built for efficient biomass stockpiling and material handling. Featuring a 48" belt, it can move up to 600 tons per hour and reach a maximum discharge height of 23'7", efficiently transporting wood chips, mulch, and other biomass feedstock. Its heavy-duty tracked undercarriage and hydraulic setup provide reliable mobility, while the high-capacity design maximizes stockpile volume and site productivity.
