UKB 1400 is our largest machine for weed blanching and is designed to be mounted on tool carriers or other types of machinery.

Areas of application:

• Cobblestone paving
• Gravel
• Sidewalks
• Parking areas
• Curbstones
• Cemeteries
• Parks

ZACHO High-temperature hot air system:

• No chemicals or toxins
• Reduced fire risk

Fast and efficient heat transfer. Angled positioning for effective curb treatment.

APPLICATION:

The machine is used for blanching weeds on paved surfaces, including asphalt, concrete, gravel, and other types of heat-resistant surfaces.

The machine is used along curbstones, sidewalks, paths, cycle paths, pedestrian areas, traffic islands, and around signs.

Pay close attention to the surroundings during operation. Conditions may be very dry, posing a risk of ignition of grass or leaves, or there may be spills of combustible materials such as oil.

The machine must not be used in enclosed spaces.

FUNCTION:

UKB 1400 is based on a high-temperature hot air system. Air is drawn in through the blower housing mounted on the engine and guided via a hose to the cannon’s combustion chamber, where the ignited gas is mixed with a large volume of air, ensuring very high combustion efficiency.

Since the combustion chamber is located in the upper part of the cannon, only the heated air is blown down into the heat shield. Due to the large air volume, the hot air is forced forward in front of the machine, heating the surface ahead. This preheating ensures a high and efficient working speed, as weeds are “blanched” within seconds.

The cannon design eliminates the risk of burns by touch or fire during operation.

The machine is highly effective around signs, lampposts, benches, etc., due to the hot air fan positioned at the front.

Safe and simple operation with a “Quick on/off function.”

Electronic continuous ignition (i.e. the ignition runs continuously during operation) and automatic gas shut-off when stopping. No flammable gas/air mixture exists outside the equipment due to the air-based system with a large excess of air.

With the quick on/off function, the equipment is particularly suitable for “interval treatment,” significantly reducing gas consumption.
