Twin rotor slashers consist of two right angle gearboxes and one transfer gearbox or T-Box which is between the two rotor gearboxes to do three major functions.

One is to drive the two rotor gearboxes. Two is to keep the main drive shaft in as straight as possible. The third is to use the safety friction clutch on the input shaft for drive line protection and essentially keep the two rotors timed or synchronised.

The Twin Rotor’s main advantage over a Single Rotor unit is the increase in width with out getting to deep for eg; a 2500mm wide unit is only 1250mm deep. Or half its width which markedly cuts down on the leverage weight of the unit and keeps the weight closer to the rear wheels of the tractor which can be essential in some steep terrains.

With two rotors you can set the unit up to deliver the cut material in a few different configurations. The most common being material is ejected or delivered out to either side of the unit using a side delivery model to throw mulch under vine to assist with weed suppression, reduce chemical application and help with water retention.
