Our Snowcuber
A revolutionary approach on more efficient and safer snow removal
The Snowcuber is the most innovative snow machine in the market for safe and controlled loading all kinds of snow without clogging. SNOCOM's volume reduction technique (up to 50%) is different and unique. It`s the ultimate cost and time saving solution that also helps reducing emissions and movements. The additional advantage is that it also saves a lot of money on hiring trucks. These features offer a valuable business case.
Accurate and controlled snow disposal
The snowcuber is able to accurately load snow into the dump truck. Maximizing load capacity and decreasing the amount of dump trucks. SNOCOM`s Snowcuber is the answer to snow-related issues in inner cities, ports, airports and logistic centers. Wherever snow needs to be transported, the Snowcuber has a great advantage compared existing methods.
Snowcompression module - Compressing the snow
The Snowcuber is capable of easily clearing all sorts of snow. The impeller effortlessly launches wet snow into the compression module. Snow that is transported by the conveyor screw will end up in the impeller which is basically an oversized snow pump. The sole purpose of the impeller is to launch the snow into the compression module and thereby increasing the static pressure.
Reverse mode - Emptying the Snowcuber
Easy to empty the compressor when you reverse the direction of rotation of the auger. The driver doesn’t have to leave the truck cabin for emptying the Snowcuber after a lockup by clogged snow.
Innovative design - Easy access to all parts
Easily access to the impeller for maintenance and all parts are standard products, so spare parts can be required in any kind of technical shop.
Independant units - The Hydraulic Power Unit
The power unit is an external and independant unit that doesn’t need the hydraulic power of the tractor. The unit has a powerful and stable hydraulic flow, a hydraulic cooling unit and is controlled by rear PTO. The various hydraulic parts all act apart from each other, so there will never be a complete fall-out of the Snowcuber.
It’s time to change!
local regulations force winter operations for a different approach. With the Snowcuber it is posible to reduce the environmental footprint due to significant reduction in emissions.
Below are the advantages of the Snowcuber compared to existing methods:
- The Snowcuber is compact and can therefore easily be deployed in inner cities, ports, airports and logistics centers.
- The Snowcuber turns the snow into a compact mass, allowing 20% to 50% more snow to be disposed of with less transportation, which is better for the environment. Significant reduction in fuel and emmisions!
- The snow leaves the Snowcuber through a tube, which allows the snow to fall quietly and without splashing into the truck, thus guaranteeing the safety of people and traffic.
- Because the snow is deposited into the truck with less force, the load of snow slides more easily out of the truck when unloading.
- Compressing the snow means that the volume at the unloading site is reduced.
- The snowcuber can work in / with all kind of snow - no more jamming machines caused by wet snow.
- Significant reduction of operational expenditures with proven return of investments.
- The snowcuber is ready for low-emission mobility.
