EzTrim Satellite Bud Trimmer

EzTrim SATELLITE BUD TRIMMER The key to a quality trim is control. The Satellite is a wet and dry trimmer that offers the most control of any commercial trimmer on the market. It is for the commercial cultivator who requires efficiency but refuses to compromise the quality and integrity of their product. Key Features: Trims 30 lbs. per hour dry and 45 lbs. per hour wet 30-45 second batch times (dry), 45-90 seconds (wet) Preserves the shape of your flower Minimal touch-up due to batch time control Filters and separates your trim View trimming calculator   Bud Movement Through Airflow & Suction The untrimmed buds enter the machine through the inner lid on the top and disperse onto the grate. Below the grate is the cutting blade, and below the cutting blade is the fan blade. The two blades spin together. The fan blade creates vortex and suction, moving and dispersing the buds as they are trimmed. Blade depth can be dialed down for strains with an irregular shape to avoid cutting the tips or dialed tight to the grate for dense, compact buds.   Airflow & Suction Control Vortex and suction can be controlled by altering the amount of airflow entering the inner lids. With the lids open, you will get mostly suction. With the lids closed, you will get mostly vortex. Use the airflow controller to optimize the best combination of vortex and suction for bud size, density, and wet or dry trim.    Bud Rotation & Separation The rotating, soft, food-grade silicone fingers and delicate brushes are used to help separate and gently roll the product along the grate. Both the direction and speed of the rotor can be controlled. For example, slowing down the rotor will minimize agitation of the flower, while running the rotor at higher rates or in reverse can create more agitation and quicker trim cycles.    Batch Time Control Many factors impact the trim time of a bud, including size, density, leaf quantity, rigidity, moisture content, and more. Therefore, it is essential to adjust your batch time accordingly. Proper Batch Time Control will minimize touch-ups while ensuring your buds are only in the machine for a short time, reducing the potential for damage.     Trim Wet or Dry The Satellite works equally well as a wet trimmer or dry trimmer. Install the correct grate, adjust your airflow, rotor speed, and blade depth, and you are ready to go.  Since the bud is being trimmed the entire time it is in contact with the grate, cycle times for the Satellite are much lower than with tunnel-style trimmers, reducing the potential for damage.  Dry trim cycle times are usually only 30– 45 seconds.  Wet trim cycle times are around 45 – 90 seconds.   TRIM COLLECTION & FILTRATION The Satellite’s unique filtration system comes with four collection bags with varying micron levels for separating and collecting the leaf as it is trimmed. The leaf enters the first bag, which is agitated by the airflow from the fan blade, shaking and pressing it through the filtration system. The result is two bags of leaf and two bags of kief.    How To Use and Maintain UNIQUE, ADJUSTABLE CONTROLS Bud Movement through Airflow and Suction Airflow is correctly adjusted when it moves the product around the grate while allowing the silicone fingers to separate and roll the product. Properly adjusting the airflow and suction eliminates excessive handling and unnecessary agitation. Rotation & Separation of Product You will want to adjust this based on whether you are trimming wet or dry product, as well as for different strains. Properly adjusting the hemp trimmer’s rotation and separation will reduce batch times. Wet & Dry Trim Functionality Properly adjusting the cutting blade and implementing the different grates for wet and dried products will ensure a quality trim without damaging buds. Batch Time Control The Satellite Bud Trimmer allows you to watch the product as it is being trimmed and adjust cycle times based on what you see during each batch. Every strain and batch is different, so adjusting accordingly is essential. Proper batch time control ensures that buds are trimmed to your desired level of quality. TRIM COLLECTION FEATURES Our patented, unique filtration system features four collection bags, each with varying micron levels for separating and collecting the leaf as it’s trimmed.  The first bag collects the larger leaf and stem. This assists in extraction and separates most of the chlorophyll-filled leaf.  The second bag collects your sweet leaf, making it excellent for extraction and pre-rolls.  The third bag is your B-grade kief (green). The fourth bag is your A-grade kief (gold).  Separating the trim and kief boasts plenty of upsides for both extraction and creating new revenue streams. Additionally, these bags can also be utilized for manual dry sifting.   Trifecta System All of our equipment is meant to help solve a bottleneck in cannabis and hemp harvesting workflow. Implementing the Bud Bucker, Bud Trimmer and Bud Sorter as a complete system maximizes the value of each individual piece of equipment. Save half your harvesting time, using half the staff, while maintaining the quality of your product.   SPECIFICATIONS: Weight: 85 lbs. Ship weight: 105 lbs.
