Here is an inside look at the heartbeat of one of Aguinaga's large green landscape material grinders.
Maintenance is carried out daily to make sure the moving parts of this equipment are lubricated and all material reducing components are properly tightened before this one thousand horsepower machine is turned loose on inbound material.
With the machine canopy closed on top of the mill you see here, trimmed shrubs, branches, leaves, and tree trunks are dumped in a funnel like surround by CAT front wheel loader tractors. The result is as much as 600 cubic yards of material per hour being ground and then ready to begin the composting process.
