In organic fertilizer production, turning is crucial for fermentation efficiency and final product quality. Windrow compost turning machines are becoming the preferred choice for large-scale, high-efficiency production due to their unique design and technical strengths.

1.Site Adaptability

Windrow-type machines have a larger ground contact area, making them much less likely to get stuck in soft, muddy, or uneven compost piles than wheeled machines – their ability to get through tough terrain is far superior.

Hydraulic balancing systems automatically adjust force on all four wheels, letting them handle bumpy ground. This reduces the need for costly site leveling.

2.Higher Output and Multi-Functionality

Doubled Capacity: Track models handle 400~1500 m³/hour (depending on model), more than double most wheeled machines.

Turning and Crushing in One: High-speed rotating blades break up clumps during turning, eliminating the need for a separate crushing step and shortening the process.

Continuous Pile Shifting and Forming: The windrow compost turning machine turns, aerates, and moves material in a single pass, forming a new windrow immediately without needing extra cleanup.

3.More Uniform and Thorough Fermentation

Steady, consistent movement and deep turning (1~1.5m height) deliver three major improvements:

Better Oxygen: Oxygen levels stay between 8-18%, boosting microbial activity and cutting fermentation time down to 7 days.

Precise Temperature Control: Material stays at 50~65°C, effectively killing pathogens and weed seeds.

No Dead Zones: Avoids the uneven decomposition common at pile edges with wheeled machines.

Application of windrow compost turning machines

1.Large Fertilizer Plants: Handling sticky materials like manure or sludge, especially for daily outputs of 500+ tons.

2.Rainy or Soft Soil Areas: Solves the problem of wheeled machines being unusable in wet weather.

3.Projects with Strict Environmental Regulations: Enclosed operation helps control dust and odor emissions.
