Plant mills

Plant mills are versatile machines designed to reduce plant waste in small pieces such as branches, leaves, gardening residues, and much more. These tools are essential for gardening enthusiasts, landscape owners, rural property owners, and all those who seek to effectively manage green waste.

A plant grinder is a machine designed to reduce plant waste in smaller pieces, making it easier to manage and dispose of. Plant waste, such as branches, leaves, hay-sized debris and gardening residues, can be difficult to effectively eliminate. However, plant mills simplify this task by transforming these waste into shavings or composts.

The operation of a plant grinder depends on its type, but the basic principle is to reduce plant waste to smaller pieces using blades, knives or sharp rollers. Here is how a plant mill works in general:

-        Waste supply: You feed the plant waste in the feeding funnel of the machine. This may include branches, leaves, hedge-sized residues, brushes, etc.

-        Broying: The blades, knives or rotary rollers located inside the machine come into contact with plant waste and reduce them to smaller pieces. The size of the pieces depends on the power and design of the grinder.

-        Ejection: The pieces of crushed plant waste are then ejected from the machine as shavings. Some plant grinders may have a mechanism to collect shavings in a bag or collection bin.

-        Use or disposal: The resulting chips can be used as mulch for the garden, added to the compost, or disposed of appropriately.

There are several types of plant grinders, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Here is an overview of the main types of plant mills:

-        Knives: They are equipped with rotary knives suitable for branches and woody debris.

-        Rollers: They use slotted rollers to crush plant waste, ideal for leaves and wastes.

-        Screwdrivers endless: They use a rotary screw to treat a variety of materials, including branches.

-        Hybrid grinders: They combine the characteristics of the above mentioned types for maximum versatility.

-        Thermal mills: They are powered by motors to gasoline or diesel, suitable for thick branches and professional work.

-        Electric grinders: They work with electricity, ideal for domestic work.

The use of a plant grinder has many advantages, including waste management, money savings, soil improvement, respect for the environment and reduced fatigue.

The choice of the best plant mill depends on the type of plant waste, capacity, storage space, mobility, and budget. Once you have your plant grinder in hand, you will be ready to manage your plant waste in an efficient and ecological manner.
