The latter can process biological waste for composting or biogas production, or produce good biomass fuels from difficult materials such as roots or waste wood.
Founded in 1921, our family business is now run by the fourth generation. More than 250 employees at JENZ work with great dedication and passion to meet the high standards of quality and customer service.
Chipper
-
JENZ is best known for its mobile wood chippers. The machines are supplied to customers all over the world and are designed for the production of wood chips for biomass generation plants, wood-fired heating systems, and other applications.
The JENZ portfolio of chippers starts at a required drive power of 110 kW (150 HP) and ends at over 982 kW (about 1,300 HP) of system power. The mobile machines are available on either truck, trailer or track drives. In addition, JENZ also offers stationary wood chippers that are driven by an electric motor. Depending on the drive, throughput rates range from 60 to 500 srm/h. This means that small to medium-sized orders as well as large orders in continuous industrial use can be handled.
SELF-PROPELLED
-
Self-proprelled wood chippers from JENZ are unbeatable in terms of economy and offer the greatest possible flexibility between forest, industry and highway thanks to 80 km/h maximum speed. The Chippertruck series is divided into two versions: the 3-axle Chippertruck and the 4-axle Chippertruck hybrid.
The 3-axle chipper truck is powered by a 520 hp MAN engine. So is the 4-axle Chippertruck hybrid, which also has an 812-hp CAT C18 superstructure engine. This drives the chipper drum, while the MAN engine is responsible for material discharge, the crane, and the hydraulics. In chipping mode, this results in a usable output of over 1,000 hp. Both the Chippertruck and the Chippertruck hybrid are available with two cab variants: either with truck cab and mower glazing or as a rotating Cobra cab.

TOWED
-
JENZ offers drawn wood chippers in two versions: PTO chippers and machines with add-on enginges PTO chippers, as their name suggests, are driven by the tractor's PTO shaft. The heart of this chipper type is a proven driveline system. The necessary power requirement starts at 110 kW (150 hp) and goes up to 400 kW (544 hp) for the large tractor class.
Chippers with add-on engines have an output of 390 to 597 kW (530 to 812 hp). They are distinguished between transverse and longitudinal superstructures. Transverse superstructures are highly mobile and very flexible in their use. Longitudinal superstructures, on the other hand, are semi-mobile and are used in port terminals, for example. Chippers in longitudinal superstructure design are fed by wheel loaders or handling excavators.

CHIPPERS ON SUBFRAMES
-
Chippers on intermediate frames are chipping units mounted on a separate frame. This frame can be easily mounted on various truck frames or hook lifts. JENZ supplies only the chipping cell. The customer can therefore choose the chassis of their choice and still receive a high-quality product.
Our wood chippers on intermediate frames are particularly powerful due to the use of a "small hybrid system". The truck engine, which also drives the crane, can additionally supply the hydraulic blower with energy. This noticeably increases the performance and ensures a consistent ejection distance as well as a high chipping quality. Similar to the dual motor technology in our Chippertruck hybrid, the superstructure motor only works when chipping. During transport, on the other hand, only the engine of the carrier vehicle is used. This allows for maximum performance in chipping while maintaining low maintenance costs and maximum durability.
