Cannamation

Cannamation makes the Bronco Bucker, a floor-standing bucking machine that strips flower from stems on wet or dry harvests. Stems feed through swappable stainless nozzles sized to the stem diameter, and adjustable urethane rollers driven by a 0.5 HP motor pull the stalk through while the flower drops away.

The frame, faceplate, die plate and feed nozzles are food-grade stainless steel built to take a washdown. The machine stands 50 inches tall, weighs 250 lbs and runs on a standard 110V, 15A circuit, but not a GFCI one. It suits growers who want to stop hand-stripping branches before trimming.

Cannamation: Complete Guide

Is the Cannamation Bronco Bucker Right for My Harvest?

Bucking is the step between cutting branches and trimming flower: stripping every bud off the stem so the trimmer, or the trim crew, only handles flower. Done by hand, it is slow and tiring work that grows with every plant. The Cannamation Bronco Bucker does it mechanically. An operator feeds a stem into a nozzle, the rollers grab it and pull it through the die plate, and the flower drops away from the stem.

It handles both wet and dry material, so it works for growers who trim fresh off the plant as well as those who hang-dry first. The fit question is less about harvest size than about the room: the Bronco is a 250 lb floor machine that needs a dedicated outlet, space to roll in, and a place to hose it down afterward.

What Sets the Bronco Apart?

  • Swappable nozzles and faceplates: Quick-change nozzles in different diameters match the stem size, so one machine handles branches with different stem sizes.
  • Adjustable rollers: Industrial urethane rollers on a 1-inch steel shaft can be set to pull the stalk with enough force to strip it without crushing the flower.
  • Washdown build: Stainless contact parts, a NEMA 4X control box rated against dust, water and corrosion, and a 25-foot industrial cord.
  • Mobility: 5-inch locking swivel casters in front and 10-inch flat-free wheels in back.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Bronco Bucker work on wet and dry material?
Yes. Cannamation built the Bronco as a wet and dry bucker, so it can strip branches fresh off the plant for wet trimming or after hang-drying. Its adjustable rollers and swappable nozzles let the operator tune the pull for the material in each batch.
How does a bucking machine handle different stem sizes?
The Bronco uses quick-change nozzles and swappable faceplates in different diameters. Matching the nozzle to the stem lets the adjustable rollers pull the stalk through with the right force, which is how the Bronco strips flower without harming it.
What electrical circuit does the Bronco Bucker need?
It runs on a standard 110V, 15A circuit and draws about 3A from its 0.5 HP worm-drive motor. Cannamation lists it as incompatible with GFCI circuits, so plan for a non-GFCI outlet within reach of the 25-foot cord.
How do you clean a bucking machine?
Cannamation recommends cleaning the Bronco weekly with a stiff brush, dish soap and water, which takes about 10 to 15 minutes. The stainless frame, faceplates and nozzles are made to be washed down between batches.
How heavy is the Bronco Bucker, and can it be moved?
The machine weighs 250 lbs and measures 30 inches wide, 32 inches deep and 50 inches tall. It rolls on 5-inch locking swivel casters in front and 10-inch flat-free wheels in back, and the front casters lock to hold it in place while running.
What warranty comes with the Bronco Bucker?
Cannamation covers the Bronco with a 5-year warranty and describes the machine as 100% serviceable. The warranty does not cover abuse or user damage, and sales of this machine are final.
