The Twister T6 is a revolution in small batch trimming and automation. The radical new small-capacity tabletop design allows for quality, hand trim-finished trimming speeds of up to 2 lbs/hr dry and 7 lbs/hr wet, right from the comfort of your own home!

The Twister T6 is designed and engineered with the highest grade materials available, including high-performance ballistic-grade plastics, high-grade anodized alloy aluminum, and 304 stainless steel used throughout. The result is quite possibly the highest grade, most durable, easiest to use, easiest to clean, small-capacity trimmers ever made!

The T6 is capable of trimming a broad range of flower moisture contents, from 8% dry to fully hydrated, both using the new T6 Extreme Tumbler.

When you buy a Twister, you’re investing in a brand with a decade of research and development behind it. You’re buying the most advanced and maintenance-free trimming system on the planet.

Many growers prefer a dry trim over wet. Triminator Dry is an excellent choice for just this. Designed for premium flower; the Triminator Dry trimmer is a fast, quiet, and user-friendly dry bud trimming machine for small to mid-sized grows.

It is capable of trimming up to 20 lbs an hour. At just over 70 pounds on casters, you can wheel this machine to wherever your harvest takes you, as long as you have a 120v, 20A outlet.

What makes this trimmer unique is that you can add on a Pollen Kit, turning your trimmer into an all in one Pollen Collector. The switch out takes just seconds with no adjustments needed. You have the option of a 100 or 150 micron screen drum.

The Dry Trimming Machine doesn't require lubricants and you can easily pressure wash the machine. Unlike the T6 and Tabletop, the Triminator Dry is a batch style.

The Triminator Mini Dry Trimming Machine is a great option for small scale growers looking to automate their harvest.

Portable, versatile, and easy to use tumbler machine. Trim anywhere your harvest takes you with Triminator Mini Dry. This award winning portable bud trimmer offers commercial grade quality, an excellent trim and it’s built to last. Trims up to 8 pounds an hour and offers optional kief tumbler kit to maximize productivity.

Its a batch feed style trimmer, so you can just load the tumbler up and let it work while you await the next batch.

Its a very user friendly design, making it easy to take from field to warehosue, or wherever your grow takes you. At just 32 pounds, anyone can carry this alone or with a friend.

Cleaning and maintaining the machine. is also very easy, as you can completely disassemble the unit without tools in under 15 seconds.

From a trim quality standpoint, this machine does the job. The long, narrow tumbler creates a large cutting surface, which works at the perfect speed for a tight trim that doesn't damage or degrade your flower.

Another Canadian born design is the Tabletop from Centurion! This machine will process wet or dry material and is the lightest of the bunch, weighing in at 35 pounds.

The CenturionPro Tabletop is capable of processing up to 3 lbs/hr dry and 15 lbs/hr wet, and works as a continuous feed.

Centurion is the only brand that features Quantanium coated non-stick tumblers. These tumblers result in 40% trichome preservation and maintains the overall appearance of the flower.

The machine cleans up easily, but make sure never to powerwash the tumblers.

Over time, the Quantanium can chip off. If you are switching the tumblers out you will need a few tools and will need to do some blade alignment to make sure everything runs smoothly.

The CenturionPro Tabletop has an awesome 5 year warranty.

The Trimpro Original is a perfect option for small- medium sized grows with wet trimming needs.

This unique trimmer is an effective way to get a close cut while preserving your delicate flower.

Since it’s not tumbling or going into any machine like the T6 or Dry Trimmer, you really have a lot of control over your cut and it will speed up your process in comparison to hand trimming substantially!

Trimpro was the first company on the scene making automated trimming possible and this model in particular, has been one of their more popular models for the last 15 years!

It’s easy to use, easy to clean and replacing any parts is extremely simple. Typically you will be able to accomplish 1-2 lbs an hour.

The legs are adjustable so you can trim while sitting or standing. The Trimpro Original is only 22 lbs and can go anywhere you need it to!

The Trimpro Orginal has a 1 year Warranty.

The Mobius M108S Trimming Machine is a new addition to our catalog this year, and is one of the most impressive pieces of equipment we've had the pleasure of selling.

This beast offers more automation than any other machine on the market, with some of the most advanced technology you'll find at this price point.

From an output perspective, it delivers as well. It can trim up to 60 lbs/hr Dry and 120 lbs/hr Wet. For those with even higher production needs, you can optimize your system by running two M108S trimmers in tandem, while adding in conveyors for the ultimate efficiency.

The Mobius M108S is designed for growers who demand that hand-trimmed appearance without sacrificing production volume or speed. Here are a few components that truly separate this product from the competition:

• AirThread Tension Tumbler - Gentle on flower while resisting rust, dents, and degradation of the tumbler. Easy to clean, and 50% more cutting blade access for tight trim.
• TriFlex Blade System - With 3 self-sharpening blades, product gets trimmed quicker with minimal impact damage.
• Integrated Separation System - While some trimmers have a separate trim saver, the Mobius M108S has integrated trim separator. This reduces the footprint of the trimmer, with less moving parts and components to clean or dispose of.
• Variable Function System - You have full control over your machine with this feature, granting the ability to optimize based on strain, end-product requirements, moisture content, density, etc.

Both the Twister T4 and T2 share the same build quality of the T6, but they are larger, process faster, and are meant for all day production.

The T4 processes 7 lbs/hr Dry or 23 lbs/hr Wet. The Soft Tumble Technology uses a smaller tumbler diameter paired with polished, non-stick stainless steel to shorten the tumble distance and limit the overall impact of the flower. No coating, no chipping, and a great quality cut time and time again.

If you are planning on using the discarded trim for concentrates, you will absolutely want to upgrade the Trim Saver package.

The Trim Saver vacuum is easy to install, and works by pulling the trim to bypass the impeller and will store it for further processing. The Cyclonic design is an industry first and aids in collecting 99% of your trim to up your extraction quality substantially.

What's new with the Twister T4?

Twister just recently added two awesome upgrades to their classic T4 model. You can now purchase a solid Stainless Steel model, and all T4's now include their Variable Speed Control (VSC) and Airflow Adjustment technology.

VSC allows you to control the speed of your tumbler and blades. This allows you to customize your production level based on your product. Slow down for a gentler cut, or speed up if you are quick trimming for extracts.

The T2S from Twister is, like the rest of their machines, beautifully designed and will take good care of your precious product!

It features nitraded blades, soft tumble technology, food grade safe, and more. All the features that make a perfectly designed machine are included in this beast.

Perpetual growers really need to look into this machine. If you are always in a state of harvest, you need a machine of this caliber to rely on.

Processing 11 lbs/hr Dry or 35 lbs/hr Wet, the T2S is built for production. It can be used without pause for all day use. Luckily, there is an auto shut off if the machine gets too hot.

What's new for the T2S? Just in time for harvest 2021, Twister released their new T2S model. It features all the power and efficiency of the original T2 with tons of new features.

The "S" in T2S stands for "Safety", and the folks at Twister were not kidding. Here is what's new for the T2S trimming machine:

• Full Stainless Steel Guarding for both Tumbler & Blades
• Includes 2 New Tumbler Guards & Upgraded Control Box
• Guards cover all Pinch Points, preventing access to the sides of the tumbler & rollers on the end plates
• Stainless Tumbler Guards clean with less effort & have 92% more open area than plastic guard
• Control Box is fitted with an emergency stop & tumbler guard includes an interlock to shut the machine down if lifted

The Gladiator by CenturionPro is a beast, and one of the largest capacity trimmers on the market. The Gladiator will process Dry: 15 lbs/hr and Wet: 75 lbs/hr.

The double barrel Quantanium tumblers use the side-by-side technology to keep the overall time spent in the tumbler down to a minimum.

They believe this is more efficient than running machines in tandem. The included hopper makes this machine easy to feed, maximizing your production.

The Gladiator Trimmer has a finely tuned diverter, allowing you to customize the air flow.

This helps you get a closer and cleaner cut, for that hand-trimmed look. It also helps prevent smaller buds from getting sucked into the impeller.

Depending on the strain and overall density of the product, you can adjust the diverter accordingly. Of course, this will take some practice and fine tuning.

The Gladiator has a 10 year warranty.

The Hybrid Trimming Machine You Have Been Waiting For Bridging the gap from wet-trimming to dry-trimming and everything in between, Hybrid is the nexus of price and performance.

Just as innovations from formula 1 racing make their way into production cars, the Triminator Hybrid has adopted key insights from Eteros technologies' Mobius Trimmer, resulting in unrivaled speed and trim quality.

The Triminator Hybrid represents the best of all worlds. Punching way above its weight class, the Hybrid delivers double the throughput as its nearest competitors yet, with a smaller price tag. With features only seen on high-end machinery, the all-in-one design, flexible bed knife, and tool-free assembly/disassembly & tandem/tridem coupling set the Hybrid apart from the rest of the pack. The Triminator Hybrid is the only continuous throughput-style trimmer on Earth to offer a stainless steel helical blade – and it comes standard. Triminator Hybrid, where price meets performance.

• Trims Up to Up to 15 lbs/hr dry or Up to 40 lbs/hr wet

Part of the reason it is able blast through harvests so quickly is the large tumbler, which provides over 44" of cutting surface!

THE ULTIMATE BLADELESS TRIMMER FOR DRY, WET, OR FROZEN

The Original Resinator machines utilize liquid CO2 to flash freeze your material, which makes sugar leaves instantly brittle, which allows them to fracture and fall from the flower. The high quality trim then falls through the mesh drum screen to collect in the base of the Resinator chamber for collection and further refinement. Although many cultivators primarily need a dry trimmer, both the XL and OG models work equally well for wet trim as they do for dry or even frozen flowers.

No matter what type or strain you have on hand, these machines can take it to a hand-trimmed quality product faster and easier than using scissors. From the densest to the fluffiest buds, the bladeless trimming technology is extremely gentle on all bud types to ensure minimal loss compared to trimming by hand while being significantly more efficient.

So whats our favorite part of the Original Resinator Machines? They are not just trimming machines! They can also be sifting machines, they can create extractions, and more! Take a look below at the other kit options these multi-purpose machines come in.
