Grawler type compost turner
Helps blend, grind and aerate manure, Plant residues, sludge and other organic waste, accelerating the production of stable compost.

What is a caterpillar compost turner??
Grawler type compost turner is a large equipment for aerobic fermentation of organic materials. The machine moves along the collar, mixes raw materials, added bacteria and straw meal, prepared with the help straw crushers, simultaneously crushing large inclusions and creating a suitable environment for microorganisms.
Manure and droppings
Cattle manure, Pork manure, bird droppings and other animal waste.
Sludge and organic sludge
Il, filter slotting sugar factory, slag cake and suitable organic sediments.
Plant remains
Straw, sawdust and agricultural waste after adjusting moisture and structure.
Large site
Suitable for above-ground pile composting without the need to construct a separate trough.

How the machine improves the fermentation process?
The work roll lifts and mixes the material, introduces oxygen inside the collar and destroys compacted areas. Regular turning helps maintain aerobic conditions and speeds up the decomposition of organic matter.
The process also reduces the risk of odorous gas accumulation, including hydrogen sulfide And ammonia. As a result, the enterprise reduces manual labor and receives more uniformly fermented raw materials for further production of organic fertilizers.
- Maximum material diameter: 250 mm
- Working speed: 6–10 m/min
- Material of the beam: Q235
- Models: SXLDF-2400 – SXLDF-3000
How long does it take to ferment??
At the right humidity, the structure of the pile and regular turning, the caterpillar composter helps the material warm up in one day, undergo deodorization and sterilization in 3–5 days and turn into fertilizer in about 10–15 days.

The machine moves around the site on caterpillar tracks, therefore the material is laid in long strip piles. Front hydraulic push plate helps form new collar after pass. Different models have different width and height requirements, the length of the collar is determined by your working platform.


Safe operation and stability on site
The machine is driven by one person. The cab protects the operator from the external environment, warmth and smell, and the optional air conditioner maintains suitable working conditions in summer, in winter, in wind and rain.

These features make the crawler machine suitable for large-scale organic fertilizer production, especially when ground conditions are more difficult, than on a standard concrete pad.
How an operator operates a crawler composter?
Hydraulic levers are responsible for movement, work roll height, turning on rotation and switching speed. Simple control layout helps quickly prepare the operator for daily work.

Diesel engine and foundation requirements
Track composters are driven in movement Weichai diesel engine. This configuration allows the machine to operate independently of a stationary power supply and move between piles.
The equipment can be used outdoors or inside the workshop. Unlike wheel type compost turner, a separate fermentation trough is not necessary. The working surface must be level and hard, no more unevenness 50 mm.
- Open area or production workshop
- Smooth and solid base
- Free passage between the piles
- Surface unevenness no more 50 mm
Four models of crawler composters
The model is selected according to the width and height of the collar, required performance and job site conditions. The values below are for preliminary comparison.
What to tell for an accurate choice?
- Type, humidity and particle size of raw materials
- Width, height and length of the collar
- Daily or hourly processing volume
- Job site size and condition
- Requirements for the cabin and additional options
| Type | SXLDF-2400 | SXLDF-2600 | SXLDF-2800 | SXLDF-3000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The width of the turn (mm) | 2400 | 2600 | 2800 | 3000 |
| The depth of the turn (mm) | 600–1000 | 1000–1300 | 1100–1400 | 1300–1500 |
| The distance between the stacks (mm) | 800–1000 | 800–1000 | 800–1000 | 800–1000 |
| Max. Material Diameter (mm) | 250 | 250 | 250 | 250 |
| Energy | 85 | 116 | 123 | 156 |
| The diameter of the working knife (mm) | 400 | 500 | 500 | 500 |
| Speed of work (m/min) | 6–10 | 6–10 | 6–10 | 6–10 |
| Power of processing (m³) | 500–700 | 1000–1200 | 1100–1300 | 1500 |
Actual productivity depends on raw material properties, moisture, pile density and operating mode. The final configuration should be confirmed against the design data.
