2025 Vermeer® Brush Chippers BC1200XL

A powerful 115-hp (85.8-kW) Origin® engine with electronic fuel injection enhances fuel economy and boosts engine response under load.

Get more done thanks to the aggressive feeding action of dual horizontal offset feed rollers that can be adjusted for optimal clamping force when feeding.

SmartFeed, a patented feed-sensing control system, boosts operator productivity and reduces engine strain by monitoring engine rpm and controlling feed rollers.

The EcoIdle™ engine control system reduces engine speed to a preset lower rpm after one to five minutes of inactivity, saving fuel and reducing jobsite noise.

The patented bottom feed stop bar is strategically positioned so the operator can strike it to shut off the feed mechanism.

VermeerOne™ Platform isn’t just a tool or platform. It’s an experience — one designed to simplify equipment management, empower users with real time data to make smarter decisions, and help maximize productivity and profitability.

Features may include:

  • Get more done with the aggressive feeding action
  • Intelligent feeding for the toughest jobs
  • Safety features designed with the operator in mind
