Tractor-Mounted Branch Shredder

PROFESSIONAL ORCHARD CLEARANCE

A Powerful Solution That Reduces Post-Pruning Workload

The SİSSAN Tractor-Mounted Branch Shredder
is designed to shred branches, shoots, stalks, grass and plant residues
left on the ground after pruning in fruit orchards, olive groves, vineyards
and other agricultural production areas.

Mounted on the tractor’s three-point linkage, the machine is driven by the PTO.
Its high-speed hammer rotor lifts pruning residues into the housing and shreds
them through repeated, powerful impacts. The processed material is then spread
back onto the surface in smaller, more uniform pieces.

This helps reduce the labour required to collect, pile and remove branches
from the orchard. Leaving the shredded organic material on the soil surface
supports natural decomposition and the return of organic matter over time.

Effective Shredding with a High-Speed Hammer Rotor

The machine’s primary working component is a high-speed hammer rotor housed
inside the body. Swinging hammers mounted on the rotor repeatedly strike
branches, shoots, stalks and crop residues, reducing them into smaller pieces.

The enclosed shredding chamber allows material to contact the rotor and internal
counter-shredding surfaces several times. This operating principle turns long,
bulky pruning residues left on the ground into a more manageable material.

The adjustable rear roller helps maintain the selected working height and allows
the machine to follow the ground more evenly. This supports consistent shredding
results across varying terrain conditions.

Equipment Designed for Intensive Orchard Work

Easier Access Beneath Trees and Along Row Edges

With a fixed machine, the tractor may need to travel very close to the tree.
The hydraulic side-shift system allows the shredder to move laterally away
from the tractor’s travel line.

This feature provides a major operating advantage in olive groves, walnut and
almond orchards, citrus plantations, vineyards and other row-crop orchards.

Using a suitable tractor hydraulic connection, the operator can adjust the
machine position and approach tree trunks and orchard edges with greater control.

Effective on Different Types of Agricultural Residue

Turn Pruning Waste into a Useful Resource

Branches left on the ground after pruning can obstruct tractor travel,
spraying, fertilising and other orchard-maintenance operations. The branch
shredder reduces this material into smaller pieces and helps keep the working
area orderly.

More uniform distribution of the shredded material helps reduce the risk
of long branches catching on equipment, makes subsequent field operations
easier and returns pruning residues to the natural organic cycle.

Select the Model That Matches Your Tractor and Orchard

The maximum branch diameter the machine can process varies according to
whether the wood is green or dry, tree species, rotor and hammer configuration,
forward speed, tractor power and machine model.

When selecting the right model, consider working width, machine weight,
tractor horsepower, PTO speed, hydraulic connection requirements and the
average branch diameter encountered in the orchard.
