Wide Application
Shunzhi Fertilizer Windrow Turner Applications
Windrow compost turner machines play a crucial role in various composting and fertilizer production processes, providing efficient mixing and aeration of compost materials. Some of the main applications of windrow compost turner machines include:
1. Organic fertilizer production: Windrow turners are used to process organic waste materials, such as agricultural waste, livestock manure, and kitchen waste, into nutrient-rich organic fertilizers. These machines ensure proper mixing and aeration of the compost materials, which promotes the decomposition of organic matter and the proliferation of beneficial microorganisms.
2. Biofertilizer production: Windrow turners are utilized in the production of biofertilizers, which are made from organic materials that have been inoculated with beneficial microorganisms, such as nitrogen-fixing bacteria or mycorrhizal fungi. The windrow turner machine helps to maintain the optimal conditions for these microorganisms to grow and multiply, enhancing the overall efficiency of the biofertilizer production process.
3. Vermicomposting: In vermicomposting processes, windrow turners are used to maintain the optimal environment for the growth and reproduction of earthworms, which break down organic matter and produce nutrient-rich vermicompost. The regular turning and aeration provided by windrow turners help to ensure that the compost material remains moist and oxygenated, which is ideal for earthworm activity.
4. Mushroom compost production: Windrow turners are employed in the preparation of mushroom compost, which is made from a mixture of organic materials, such as straw, poultry manure, and gypsum. The machines facilitate the proper mixing and aeration of the compost materials, ensuring that they reach the desired temperature and decomposition levels before being used as a substrate for mushroom cultivation.
5. Green waste composting: Windrow turners are also used in the composting of green waste, such as leaves, grass clippings, and small branches, to produce high-quality compost for use in landscaping, gardening, and soil amendment applications. The machines help to accelerate the decomposition process by regularly turning and aerating the compost materials, which prevents the formation of anaerobic conditions and foul odors.
6. Industrial and municipal waste composting: Windrow turners are employed in large-scale composting facilities that process industrial and municipal solid waste, including food waste, paper, and other organic materials. These machines not only help to mix and aerate the compost materials but also contribute to breaking down larger pieces of waste, enhancing the overall efficiency of the composting process.
In summary, windrow compost turner machines are essential tools in a variety of composting and fertilizer production processes, ensuring the effective mixing and aeration of compost materials. By promoting the decomposition of organic matter and the growth of beneficial microorganisms, windrow turners play a critical role in producing high-quality compost and fertilizers, which can improve soil fertility and crop yield while reducing the environmental impact of waste materials.

Detailed Guide
Factors to Consider When Purchasing a Windrow Turner
Windrow Turner Types
The first factor to consider when purchasing a windrow turner is the type of windrow turner that best fits your needs. The most common types include moving type windrow turner with wheels and crawler type windrow turners. For large-scale operations, the crawler type is usually preferred as it allows for more efficient and powerful turning of large volumes of material.
Additionally, it is important to consider the type of terrain you will be working on. A windrow turner designed for flat, open areas may not perform as well in hilly or rough terrain. For flat and open terrain, crawler type is the best option, while if you tend to compost your piles indoors or uneven areas, moving type windrow turner is more suitable.
Power Source
When looking for a windrow turner, it is important to consider the size and power of the machine. It must be powerful enough to handle the type of material you will be turning and have a large enough capacity to effectively turn your windrows.
Generally, a powerful window turner should have an engine size of at least 25 horsepower and a turning capacity of at least 13 cubic yards. Additionally, if you plan on working in tight spaces, you may want to consider a machine with an easily adjustable turning radius.
Blade Types
The type of blade used in the windrow turner is another important factor to consider. Generally, there are four types of blades used in windrow turners — knives, paddles, shears and augers. Each type has its benefits and drawbacks, so it is important to consider which type of blade best fits your needs.
Compost Pile Width and Height
Finally, when shopping for a windrow turner it is important to consider the width and height of your compost piles. For wider piles, you will need a machine with greater turning capacity. Additionally, if your piles are tall, you may want to opt for a taller, more powerful machine.
Shunzhi crawler type windrow turner has the ability to compost piles with heights of up to 1.5 meters and a turning capacity of 1500 square meters, making it the ideal choice for large-scale composting operations.
