Vecoplan developed the latest VTH 160 and VTH 260 series with an increased focus on efficiency and digital development. The company recently launched the series in a completely new design under the motto \u201cThe E-volution of Performance. Strong machines. Smart future\u201d, which clearly showcases the combination of robustness, optimised technology and new, digital data acquisition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Flexible configuration in a new guise<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor us, it was important that the new drum chippers retained the proven functions of our previous VTH series. Changing knives, for example, remains as easy as ever. The new design also makes it much easier to replace wearing parts,\u201d explains Kersten Beib, Director of Sales in Vecoplan\u2019s Wood\/Biomass division. \u201cAt the same time, we also want to enable our customers to configure the machine much more flexibly.\u201d The VTH 160 and VTH 260 are available in S, M, L, XL and XXL intake widths, so the machines can be precisely tailored to specific customer requirements. The entire cutting unit can be selected to suit the application and can even be replaced at a later date if required. Users also have a lot of flexibility available when it comes to material feed, which takes place horizontally, either via a vibrating conveyor or a feed belt. The standardised machine stands make connection easy and offer the customer even more options. The new chippers are also characterised by the usual fast replacement of cutting tools.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1417\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/vht26.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-56705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/vht26.jpg 1417w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/vht26-350x206.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/vht26-700x412.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/vht26-149x88.jpg 149w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/vht26-768x451.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1417px) 100vw, 1417px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The modular models impress users with their excellent accessibility for operators and service personnel.<br>Photo by Vecoplan<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Smart change at the touch of a button<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In future, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/bioenergy\/17432_st3_biomass-production\/\">Vecoplan<\/a> will also be supplementing the technical flexibility of the new VTH series machines with the Vecoplan Smart Centre (VSC) . The VSC.connect digital solution enables real-time monitoring of all operating data, such as material flow, plant utilisation and preventive maintenance requirements. Continuous data acquisition enables users to analyse operating data on an ongoing basis. The VSC also offers a remote service function that provides digital support for troubleshooting.\u00a0Vecoplan service personnel can also use the VSC to connect to the customer\u2019s machine online via secure remote access. This allows problems to be identified and rectified quickly, reducing downtime to a minimum and saving time, costs and resources. Yet another function is the \u201cparameters\u201d setting. This allows various programmes and input materials to be set at the touch of a button and the desired output to be predefined and called up immediately, enabling users to customise the end product easily using software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/vecoplan.com\/\">vecoplan.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vecoplan celebrated the birth of its new generation of drum chippers at this year\u2019s LIGNA, presenting the new VTH 160 and VTH 260 chipper series at the fair.
