Groove type, crawler type, or wheel type… Which compost turner is best for your farm?
The organic fertilizer market is promising and more and more medium and large farms are choosing to process livestock manure into organic manure for sale. An important part of the organic manure production process is the fermentation of organic materials. The fermentation process requires the tossing of the raw materials so that the material in the middle can be fully exposed to air for fermentation and moisture removal. Due to the large scale of production, the volume of organic raw materials handled is very large, and artificial farmyard is not practical, which requires the use of organic fertilizer fermentation tossing equipment. There are many types of organic fertilizer compost turners on the market and it can be difficult to choose a suitable Compost Turner. This article will briefly describe the common compost turner on the market and the use of scenarios.
⒈.Trough type compost turner
Need to build a fermentation tank, with the help of moving trucks, that can work in rotation between multiple fermentation tanks to reduce input.
Turning depth 0.8-1.8 m, width 3-6 m.
It can move forward 1-2 meters per minute, the walking speed depends on the density of the material, with a high density, the walking speed is slower.
Use scenario: daily organic raw material processing capacity of 20 tons or more, annual output of 6000 tons of organic fertilizer. The compost turner operates without taking up manpower.
2. Peal Wheel Compost Turner
High requirements for the plant, with solid walls and indoor operation.
The turning span can be as large as 33m wide and the depth can be 1.5-3m, suitable for deep turning operations.
Use scenario: daily organic raw material handling capacity of 30 tonnes or more, annual production of 1-2 million tonnes of organic fertilizer. The compost turner operates automatically and does not need to occupy manpower.
3. Double wheel disc hydraulic lift compost turner
Compared with the wheel tosser, the double wheel tosser is, as the name suggests, 2 wheel tosser working together with very high efficiency.
Use scenario: daily organic raw material processing capacity of 30 tons or more, annual output of 1-2 million tons of organic fertilizer. The organic fertilizer compost turner operates automatically, without the need for human labor.
4. Singing Chain plate turner
The construction of a fermentation tank is required, and with the help of a traveling trolley, it is possible to rotate between several tanks.
Fast travel speed and tilting depths of up to 2 m make it suitable for deep tanks.
Equipped with a transfer trolley to change the troughs you can achieve multiple troughs with one compost turner, saving on investment.
As the tilting plate is inclined, the material as a whole moves forward after each tossing. The next time the material is stacked it can be placed directly behind the site.
Applicable scenarios: small fermentation site, relatively deep fermentation trough, daily organic raw material handling capacity of 30 tons or more, annual production of 1-2 million tons of organic fertilizer. The compost turner works automatically and does not need to occupy manpower.
5. Crawler Compost Turner
No need to build a tank, just pile the fertilizer into strips. The turning distance is 0.8-1 m and the height of the pile is 0.6-1.8 m. This saves input costs and makes expansion easy.
There is a cockpit on the turning machine so that workers can isolate part of the stench when operating the machine.
Use scenario: daily organic raw material handling capacity of 5 tons or more, annual output of 3000 tons of organic fertilizer. A worker is required to operate the machine when the compost turner is in operation.

6. Self-propelled compost turner
No need to build a trough, just pile the fertilizer into strips. It can eliminate the need for civil engineering projects, save space, save input costs and expand widely and easily.
Use scenario: suitable for farms handling 3-4 tonnes of raw material handling per day. A worker is required to operate the machine when the compost turner is working.
These are the common types of organic fertilizer compost turners on the market.
