Equipment
No machine colors mulch like the Sahara XP. The architecture of the all-new, redesigned mixing chamber works with the innovations within to eliminate water waste and maximize color economy, trimming the fat from every last bucket of mulch.
The XP’s belt feed hopper leaves nothing to chance: Each piece of mulch enters the mixing chamber at the same location and spends the same amount of time getting thrown around inside. That’s why your piles of product will all be the same color across hours, days, weeks or even seasons.
After mulch is dumped into the hopper, the conditioner de-clumps the pieces and helps meter the flow of material into the mixing chamber based on the selected recipe.
This belt is purpose-built to control the mulch feed into the mixing chamber, so every piece in every bucket can follow the same path from the hopper to the pile — at the exact rate you want it to flow.
The conveyor comes equipped with a fully adjustable set of deflector chutes for directional control of mulch and fines off the belt.
At a perfectly friendly height of 6 feet, our discharge conveyor is designed to kick out mulch directly onto your conveyor.
The XP’s on-demand atomizer nozzles use the water in your recipe to knife the colorant into a fine mist. That knifing action cuts down the colorant until its particles are small enough to cover the distinct surface characteristics of different wood fibers.
Bilateral agitation is our patented “push-and-pull” process that keeps the blades turning in one constant direction to conserve energy, while the unique combination of blades throws the mulch in all different directions to maximize exposure.
