The disc is a segmented, vertical plane 1.8metre diameter disc, with a total of 64 teeth spaced around the periphery and across the front and rear faces.
The disc is angled 30 degrees to the drum. This creates a unique "Closed Loop" sreening / cutting / segregating operation internally inside the drum, offering maximum screening with minimum energy consumption.
The disc utilises the inertia imparted into the cut product to transmit it up the drum, where it goes through the screening action again.
This means no extra energy is used from the engine!
The teeth are reversible and rebuildable, with an unprecedented 5 : 1 cutting / holding area ratio. This ensures maximum life for the tooth holders .
The teeth are retained using a simple bolting mechanism. Simply release the bolt, give the tooth a tap and the tooth slides out. What could be simpler!
We have designed the WoodWeta with ease of repairs in mind. In the unlikely event of damage to a tooth holder, you can either remove the segment and repair it, or get a portable line borer to build the hole and re-machine it in place, the rotor does not have to be removed.
Both sides of the rotor are easily accessible for maintenance and service. As the drum is covered you can work totally undercover, out of the elements, or fold the cover back to let light and air to circulate.
The WoodWeta "Vernier Nut "retention system requires only one person to remove or install the rotor: no sledge hammer required!
