TrimPal 2 Unit Dry Trimmer With a Pulling Action
A slowly turning basket does all the work in this machine. It rolls dried buds against its own surface, and that gentle pulling action strips the long leaves without chopping into the flower. The basket measures 11 in and turns at 17 RPM, driven by a geared, brushless Dayton motor. Expect roughly 2 to 3 lbs per hour of trimmed flower from one operator. The motor draws about 3 A at startup and settles to 1.5 to 2 A while running, so a standard outlet handles it. A 15-minute interval timer sets each batch, and an overheat kill switch protects the motor. The machine weighs 55 lbs and fits on a bench or cart. Its frame is precision laser cut and powder coated. Load the basket, set the timer and let it run. Check the buds at the end of the cycle and run again if the finish needs more time.
Getting a Clean Finish From a Bladeless Dry Trimmer
Dryness is the setting that matters most. Material is ready when stems snap cleanly instead of bending, which usually means a few days of hang drying first. Buds that are still soft trim unevenly, because the leaf does not release under the pulling action. Remove fan leaves and cut buds from the stems before loading. Without blades, there is nothing to sharpen and nothing that nicks the flower. That also means the trim is a polish rather than a tight manicure, so very leafy strains may need a quick touch-up by hand. Cleaning is simple, with a recommended interval of about every 250 lbs processed. The basket comes off its shaft for cleaning between harvests. One person runs the whole process, from loading to emptying. It is made in the USA and suits home growers and small rooms that finish a few pounds at a time.
