Thread: How many pounds can you fine trim a day?

Hi bleezyg420,

Someone pointed out this post to me, so I joined Roll it Up just to reply . The yellow machine that you're using is called the Samurai, and it's made by Advanced Nutrients.



I'm with the company that makes the Twister leaf trimming machine.


It is, in my biased opinion, a vastly superior machine that's specifically designed for commercial growing conditions. You can learn more at our site or search 'twister trimming machine' on youtube to watch a lot of videos.

We wrote a blog post recently about how many pounds the Twister can trim per hour. Check it out.
Any questions, let me know.

That twister and Samurai look amazing, but those machines look huge and probably way out of my price range. Does anyone have any good DIY links to homemade bud trimmers using fans etc?

plus, he already bought a machine. you are too late.

free advertising rocks.

I joined simply to point out to bleezyg420, who is evidently unhappy with his trimmer, that he's using a Samurai, not a Twister. Sorry if my post offended you, fdd2blk.

Thank you, sir. And in retrospect, I clearly could've made my point without the links, etc. Lesson learned.

The short answer: A single 6" outtake performs better than two 4" outtakes, which allows for a closer trim.

The longer answer: The Samurai has two 4" hoses, while the Twister has one 6" hose. The single 6” Twister hose has an area of 28.27”, while the area of two 4” hoses is 25.14”. That's 11% more area over 2 smaller hoses. Theoretically, the 6" hose also provides far less pressure loss at similar flow rates than the two 4" hoses. At 1700 CFM each 4" hose loses 220% more pressure due to friction of the interior walls than the 6". That is 1/4 the losses of the two smaller hoses and allows higher suction pressure at the outlet of the Twister.
