Applications
Composting and Organic Fertilizer
WeiDong tub grinders and straw shredders prepare woody compost feedstock and organic-fertilizer carbon sources from branches, green waste, roots and crop residue. A 3600-series tub grinder handles mixed, bulky feed at a typical 25–40 t/h; the 1865-series straw shredder handles straw and stalks.
What this application demands
Open, consistent structure
Compost piles need a particle size that keeps air moving; the screen opening and hammer or knife rotor are chosen for the target structure.
Removing contaminants
Plastic, netting, stones and metal must be removed before grinding; contaminated feed damages tools and degrades the compost product.
Batch traceability
Fertilizer producers often need feed lots traced from receiving to grinding to the windrow; the workflow is planned with the grinder.
Seasonal volume
Green-waste peaks call for mobility: wheeled or crawler tub grinders move between collection sites.
A compost or fertilizer operation needs a repeatable carbon-rich feed with an open structure. The grinder is the first process step, so it is sized and configured around the windrow or fermentation process that follows.

Frequently asked questions
Can a tub grinder process compost feedstock?
Yes. WeiDong 3600-series tub grinders process woody compost feedstock such as branches, roots and green waste. Very wet, stringy or contaminated loads should be reviewed with photos first.
What machine shreds straw for organic fertilizer?
The WDS1865 (diesel) or WDSE1865 (electric) straw shredder cuts rice straw, wheat straw and corn stalks for compost and fertilizer production.
