Lippel Revolutionizes Construction Waste Disposal in Colombia with Raptor 700 Forestry Chipper

Success story highlights versatility and efficiency of Lippel equipment.

Lippel, a leader in wood and biomass processing solutions, announces a success story in Colombia that highlights the versatility and efficiency of its equipment. A construction wood collection company, located in Medellín, found in Lippel technology the ideal solution to a persistent problem: the disposal of wood waste contaminated with nails and other metals.

After a year of studies and negotiations, the Colombian company, which until then was unaware of the solutions offered by Lippel, partnered to acquire the Raptor 700 Forestry Chipper. The machine, equipped with a metal detector and magnetic pulley, allows metals to be separated from the wood, ensuring a clean material suitable for burning in boilers.

Innovative solution to a complex problem

The main challenge for the Colombian company was the proper disposal of the contaminated material, which accumulated in warehouses, generating environmental and financial liabilities. With the acquisition of the Raptor 700, the company not only solved the disposal problem, but also transformed what was a cost into a new source of revenue.

The wood chips produced by the Raptor 700, free of contaminants, are well accepted in the market, boosting the operation's payback to a period shorter than expected. The Lippel solution allowed the Colombian company to turn an environmental liability into a profitable asset.

State-of-the-art technology for different needs

The Raptor 700 Forestry Chipper is a robust and versatile piece of equipment, designed to meet various market demands. With different drum and knife configurations, the Raptor 700 can produce chips of various sizes, suitable for different applications, such as composting, energy burning and sale.

The Lippel Raptor line stands out for its innovation and embedded technology, such as the chip extraction system by conveyor belt and the option of automatic clutch, which guarantee greater efficiency and safety in operation.
