A550
Jensen A550 – 10” Wood Chipper
The Jensen A550 Diesel is a heavy-duty 10” wood chipper designed for professional arborists and contractors handling daily tree removals/ maintenance and site clearance work across New Zealand. Available in tracked, trailed, or PTO-driven configurations, it combines powerful diesel performance with the flexibility to suit different job sites.
With a robust German-engineered build, the A550 features twin hydraulic feed rollers, a wide infeed hopper, and a galvanised chassis for long-term durability. Its aggressive feed system handles bulky, forked, and awkward material without constant reversing, improving efficiency on high-volume jobs.
Designed for demanding workloads, the Jensen A550 is ideal for contractors needing a reliable, low-maintenance wood chipper that performs consistently in tough NZ conditions. Local parts and service support from ALFA Equipment help ensure maximum uptime when it matters.
For operators processing large volumes of material, Jensen have 141 XL model or the JT600. For forestry machines we recommend stepping up to the Heizohack range.
ALFA Equipment supplies Jensen wood chippers across New Zealand, with growing demand also supported in Australia.
