Made entirely of high-thickness steel and compliant with European safety regulations, the FBC CIP.8 DU stands out for its robust construction , ease of use , and operational versatility . The self-propelled tracked configuration ensures maximum maneuverability even on slopes of up to 20% , maintaining an ergonomic and functional entry height equal to that of push-type models.

Belonging to the FBC CIP Series , this wood chipper best represents the quality and reliability of a Made in Italy wood chipper, carefully designed and made with robust and durable components , suitable for frequent and continuous use over time.

Available models

• CIP.8.13H.DU Honda GX390 engine 11.7 HP 8.7 kW, 389 cc (chipper) + Honda GX160 engine 4.8 HP, 3.6 kW, 163 cc (track drive)
• CIP.8.13A.DU Loncin G390F 11 HP 8.2 kW, 389 cc engine (chipper) + Loncin G200F 5.6 HP, 4.2 kW, 196 cc engine (track drive)

Technical specifications

The FBC CIP.8 DU chipper is available in two power versions , both equipped with single-cylinder 4-stroke engines for both the chipping system and the self-propelled part. The version with Honda engines mounts an 11.7 HP (8.7 kW) GX390 for the cutting system and a 4.8 HP (3.6 kW) GX160 for the tracked power barrow. Alternatively, the version with Loncin engines is equipped with an 11 HP (8.2 kW) G390F for the chipper and a 5.6 HP (4.2 kW) G200F for the traction system. Both configurations offer high reliability , continuity of work and adequate power even on difficult or sloping terrain .

The machine can process branches up to 80 mm in diameter , with an hourly production capacity ranging from 4 to 7 m³/h , depending on the type of material, blade maintenance, and operator experience. The self-feeding system facilitates continuous material introduction, while the discharge pipe, which can be mounted on both sides, ensures flexibility during wood chip collection. The loading hopper has a material introduction height from the ground of 110 cm , and an unloading height of 155 cm .

Functional specifications

Professional cutting system for efficient chipping

The heart of the FBC CIP.8 DU shredding system is a chipping disc equipped with a sharp blade and an L-shaped counterblade , which perform a clean and precise initial cut. This is followed by the action of six moving S-shaped hammers , which further crush the material into chips ideally sized for composting or energy use. This dual processing stage ensures high efficiency even with green and fibrous material.

Tracked power barrow for mobility on difficult terrain

The self-propelled base consists of a tracked power barrow built in Italy , designed to effortlessly tackle slopes of up to 20% . The system ensures stability and optimal traction even on muddy, grassy, or uneven surfaces, making the chipper ideal for work in hilly parks or high-altitude gardens.

Self-feeding system for continuous work flow

The material is fed into the cutting chamber via a self-feeding system , allowing for smooth, uninterrupted processing. This automation reduces operator fatigue and allows for higher hourly output, increasing the efficiency of the entire chipping process.

Robust and safe structure for professional use

The FBC CIP.8 DU wood chipper is made of high-thickness steel , a technical choice that guarantees resistance over time even under prolonged stress . The cutting system is mounted via a rear flange shaft with two self-lubricating bearings , while power transmission to the disc is ensured by belts and pulleys , a solution that combines efficiency and ease of maintenance.

Safety and convenience for the operator

The model is equipped with integrated safety systems , such as rotation lock pins for maintenance, and useful accessories such as the branch and leaf pusher, which facilitate the management of material at the entrance. Each control is easily accessible and designed to ensure safety , ergonomics and speed of use even during the longest work sessions.
