The 2710C is Peterson’s latest generation of high production track grinders. Powered by the Caterpillar C13 engine at 475 horsepower (354kW) or an optional C15 at 580 (433kW) horsepower, this model provides plenty of power in a compact grinder. At 59,000 pounds (27000 kg) the 2710C was designed for operations requiring high production and frequent moves between jobs. With a feed opening of 60 3/4 x 32 in. (1534 x 813 mm) combined with Peterson’s high lift feed roll for an optional opening of up to 44 in. (1118mm) high, the 2710C can readily reduce a wide range of material.

The 2710C utilizes Peterson’s new generation of Impact Release System that can be set in the detent mode to provide consistent product sizing or switched to the floating anvil mode for a primary reduction where accurate sizing is less critical. The floating anvil mode provides a high production primary reduction with more protection from contaminated feedstocks and reduced fuel consumption.

The 2710C’s new generation of controls includes Peterson’s high production Adaptive Control System and a fully adjustable feed system that is optimized for a wide range of materials. The new control panel provides self-diagnostics for faulty sensors and open circuits. Fault indicators make trouble shooting easy. An optional on-board modem permits remote diagnostics and monitoring of many machine parameters. The 2710C control panel features a large LCD display that provides the operator with the information needed to efficiently operate the unit. System pressure transducers and remote monitoring capability simplify set up and provide complete engine and system parameters.

The 2710C features a large grate area that enables the 2710C to produce materials to exact specifications. Our quick-change multiple grate system makes it easy to customize grate configurations to produce a wide variety of finished materials. Grates are removed through an access door on the side wall of the 2710C.

Another major innovation included on the 2710C is Peterson’s Impact Cushion System. Urethane cushions allow movement of the compression roll/anvil housing pivot shaft, cushioning impacts due to contaminants in the feed material. Shear pins above the cushion and a sensing circuit that stop the engine help protect the shaft from catastrophic damage in the event of a severe impact.

Peterson specializes in developing delivery and processing equipment that turns low-grade organic materials into high value products.
