Rotochopper hosted its annual Rotochopper University education sessions at the company’s manufacturing facility in St. Martin, Minnesota.
The two-day class, held in late February, is led by the company’s customer service department and is for companies that have purchased Rotochopper grinders during the past year.
The event featured a tour of Rotochopper’s manufacturing facility, a hands-on demonstration, equipment operation best practice training, and networking opportunities. This year’s class featured more than 50 attendees from 35 companies.
The themes of this year’s event focused on how to properly feed your grinder, how to perform preventive maintenance and how to troubleshoot. According to Rotochopper, the hands-on demonstration showed attendees how to install the main rotor bearings and how to adjust the sheave and tension the drive belt on a Rotochopper grinder.
Headquartered in St. Martin, Minnesota, Rotochopper designs, builds and supports horizontal grinders, wood chip processors, asphalt shingle grinders and mobile baggers.
