{"product_id":"centurionpro-hp3-triple-bucker","title":"CenturionPro HP3 Triple Bucker","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe CenturionPro HP3 Triple Bucker is an industrial three-station de-stemming system engineered for commercial harvest operations that require exceptional throughput, independent workstation control, and reliable continuous-duty performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCapable of processing up to 500 pounds of wet plant material or 100 pounds of properly dried material per hour, the HP3 delivers three times the production capacity of the HP1. Its three operator stations allow a full processing crew to work simultaneously, dramatically reducing the labor bottlenecks commonly created by manual stem removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWet Processing Capacity: Up to 500 lbs\/hr\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry Processing Capacity: Up to 100 lbs\/hr\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorkstations: Three Independent Bucker Heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 5-Year Manufacturer Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach workstation uses two neoprene rubber rollers to grip the stem and pull it through the selected feed opening. This high-performance roller system separates plant material quickly and consistently while supporting continuous feeding throughout large harvest cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HP3 includes three independent 0.75 HP gear-driven motors. Each motor powers its own bucking head, providing dedicated torque and control at every station. This independent-drive design also helps protect production uptime because individual workstations can be inspected or serviced without relying on one shared mechanical drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive feed openings are available at every station, accommodating stems from 3\/16 inch to 3\/4 inch in diameter. With 15 total feed openings across the complete machine, operators can select the closest size for each stem to improve separation efficiency and reduce unnecessary pressure on finished material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntegrated Variable Speed Control allows pull speed to be adjusted between approximately 10 and 30 inches per second. Lower speeds provide more control for delicate or dry material, while higher settings maximize production when processing hydrated, flexible stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach workstation delivers more than 400 pounds of pulling strength, giving the HP3 the torque required to handle demanding commercial workloads. Motor pulse and reverse operation are also included, providing additional control when clearing material, correcting feed issues, or adapting to different stem conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HP3 arrives mounted on a commercial bucker stand with industrial casters. The wide three-station design provides sufficient spacing for multiple operators to work without crowding one another, while the mobile stand allows the machine to be repositioned for cleaning, maintenance, conveyor alignment, or changes to the facility workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn optional HP3 Bucker Conveyor can be placed beneath the machine to transport separated material away from the workstations. This helps prevent accumulation below the feed heads and creates a smoother transition into inspection, trimming, or collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt from 304 stainless steel and aluminum, the HP3 is engineered for repeated sanitation, corrosion resistance, and demanding commercial use. The continuous-duty drivetrain and IP54-rated motors support extended production cycles when the machine is operated and maintained according to manufacturer instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HP3 runs on standard single-phase electrical service and requires a dedicated 20A circuit. North American models operate at 120V, while international versions operate at 240V. When an extension cord is required, the manufacturer specifies a minimum 12 AWG cord with a maximum length of 25 feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBacked by a 5-year manufacturer warranty, the CenturionPro HP3 is built for facilities that need maximum de-stemming capacity, three independent operator stations, powerful roller-driven processing, and dependable long-term performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThree Independent Workstations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HP3 combines three complete bucking stations into one commercial processing system.
