The AK 565 K is a newly developed model of the AK series, thus replacing the predecessor model AK 510 K BioPower. The new MTU engine complies with the very new EU Stage V emissions standards, while offering now with 390 kW a torque that has been increased by 400 Nm over its predecessor. In addition to the standard tracked chassis, there is also an offroad version that provides the AK 565 K with even more ground clearance for improved mobility on rough terrain.

The AK 565 K offers more ease of maintenance thanks in particular to the standard lowerable rear belt. The use of uniform subassemblies and components ensures that the need for spare parts is minimal and their replacement is easy in case of servicing. With the new decentralized electrical system and the new radio system, the AK 565 K features expanded diagnostic abilities, thus offering improved support in case of failure.

Cooling capacity has been improved compared to its predecessor. At the same time, the cooling system control is more effective, making it easier to reach the operating temperature faster. Similarly, fire safety has been improved as well: the exhaust system and the AGN box are made entirely of stainless steel and are thermally shielded with the highest quality integral insulation.

The Doppstadt AK 565 K can be used for a very broad range of materials, such as for shredding waste wood, wood pallets, green waste, bio-waste, tree trunks and roots.
