Grinding forestry residue, sawmill waste, clean waste wood and agricultural residue into boiler fuel and pellet feedstock.
The WeiDong WDE1690C is an electric crawler horizontal grinder for powered industrial sites that need the larger 1690 platform and repositioning on uneven ground. It uses controlled infeed for long wood, branches, forestry residue and prepared biomass.

The WDE1690C combines a controlled horizontal infeed system with WeiDong’s 1690-series grinding platform. Its crawler configuration is designed for uneven job sites and frequent on-site repositioning. The listed 360 kW Electric power configuration supports the main grinding system, while hydraulic auxiliary systems control functions such as feeding and discharge. The 1620 x 640 mm inlet is designed for long wood, branches, forestry residue, and prepared biomass feedstock. Actual throughput and finished particle size depend on feed material, moisture, contamination, rotor selection, screen configuration, and feeding conditions. Final transport, electrical, emissions, and public-road requirements are confirmed for each order and destination market.
Choose WDE1690C when electric production and crawler access are both required. The site must support the incoming power and cable-management system needed for safe repositioning.
Performance note: Capacity and final particle size vary with feedstock type, moisture, contamination, rotor, screen and feeding conditions. Confirm the final configuration through material testing and the project specification.
Best suited to facilities with a stable industrial power supply and planned electrical infrastructure.
Self-propelled crawler mobility for uneven ground and frequent repositioning within the job site.
The infeed system presents material to the grinding chamber in a controlled flow.
Electric Main Drive + Hydraulic Auxiliary Systems. Final component scope is confirmed in the project specification.

Grinding forestry residue, sawmill waste, clean waste wood and agricultural residue into boiler fuel and pellet feedstock.

Grinding logging slash, whole trees and forestry residue at the landing or roadside into transportable biomass.

Recovering C&D timber, formwork, pallets and crates as fuel or recycled-wood fractions, with metal separation planned in.

Turning slabs, edgings, bark, offcuts and mill residue into boiler fuel, mulch or board feedstock.
Cable routing, movement limits, isolation and protection are engineered around the site layout and operating procedure.
Choose WDE1690C where industrial power is reliable and reducing diesel operation is more important than unrestricted field mobility.
A single capacity value is not stated until the material and final configuration are confirmed. Actual throughput depends on feedstock, moisture, contamination, rotor, screen and feeding conditions.
Provide material photos or video, maximum feed size, moisture and contamination, required throughput, target output, site conditions, mobility needs and the destination electrical supply where applicable.
