Vermeer introduces TR6400 trommel screen

Vermeer continued to expand its trommel screen product line with the introduction of the new TR6400 model, which is capable of separating up to 180 cubic yards (137.6 cu m) of material per hour with half-inch screens installed and a material moisture content of less than 40 percent.

The TR6400, with a compact, durable design for compost, topsoil and biomass applications, features a powerful 100-horsepower Deutz 3.6L Tier 4 Final Stage IV engine, a 6.5-foot diameter screen drum with variable speeds of zero to 33.1 gallons per minute, a low hopper in-feed with a capacity of 6.5 cubic yards and various service and operating enhancements, Vermeer said.

The TR6400 complements the smaller Vermeer TR5300 trommel screen in the product line.

“The TR6400 trommel screen builds off the success of our recently introduced TR5300 model,” said Jeff Bradley, product manager for recycling and forestry equipment at Vermeer. “Its compact design allows for ease of transportation and maintenance. With a large drum diameter, hopper capacity and increased horsepower, teams will be able to produce large volumes of finished material with the TR6400 day in, day out.”

Vermeer said the drum of the TR6400 is designed for quick exchange with a side door that gives complete access to the drum body from the ground. Also, the unit’s quick-change screen, with the ability to tension it around the drum to add rigidity, can accommodate smaller gauge wire to aid with overall production even when running wet materials. And with various access points to critical areas and a foldout motor compartment that provides access to the backside of the engine, servicing the TR6400 is efficient.

To further enhance the performance of the TR6400 trommel screen, the user-friendly Vermeer ACS control system gives operators the flexibility to run the machine with the DP10 display mounted on the control panel or a handheld transceiver remote. From either control unit, the operator can adjust conveyor heights and drum speeds depending on incoming material and job site conditions.
