The Gobbler is designed to process large compressed bales (as well as smaller bales) into fluffed and moistened potting soil. It is constructed with a hopper the full length of an inclined live bottom conveyor. The bale is loaded onto the hydraulic lift gate platform and then raised into position. A heavy-duty drag chain breaks up the bale as it moves media on the inclined slider bed. A gathering auger fluffs and automatically adds water (at your chosen rate) prior to discharging a ready to use media.

The central discharge is at 42″ clearance from the floor. The Gobbler may utilize basic stop/start controls or automated sensors to integrate with other processing equipment. Your processed media may be discharged directly into Kase Fillers or Kase Soil Conveyors.
